About The Warehouse
This substantial grade II listed property was originally built as a warehouse for Yew Tree Mill which sits on the opposite side of Woodhead Road from the rear elevation of the property. It is believed to date back to the mid-1800s and is of traditional stone built construction beneath a pitched stone slate roof.

Our clients purchased the property circa 2008 and after carrying out an extensive scheme of works including the renovation of the adjacent cottage, finally occupied the property in 2014. The works included the conversion of the 2 upper floors and attic space into living accommodation whilst the ground floor includes garaging and a workshop / store. Great care and attention has been taken to retain original features including exposed roof trusses, mullioned windows and stonework, complimenting them with high quality modern fittings throughout.
