Denise White Estate Agents Comments
An exciting and rare opportunity to acquire two charming one-bedroom terraced cottages, offered for sale as one, on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Longnor. Requiring full modernisation throughout, these properties present a fantastic project with endless potential for a variety of uses.
Both cottages offer similar accommodation, each featuring open-plan living space to the ground floor. Character features include fireplaces, exposed beams, and dual aspect windows, allowing for plenty of natural light and a welcoming atmosphere.
To the first floor of each cottage, there is a generous double bedroom positioned to the front, along with a shower room.
Externally, the properties benefit from two good-sized front gardens, offering scope for landscaping or outdoor seating areas. In addition, there are two small outhouses, ideal for storage but also offering potential for conversion into a laundry room or additional usable space.
The properties offer significant flexibility, with the potential to:
Combine both cottages to create one larger, unique home
.Retain as two separate dwellings and modernise individually
.Explore use as holiday lets, subject to the necessary planning consents
There is also potential to create off-road parking to the front, again subject to the appropriate permissions.
Overall, this is a highly appealing investment or lifestyle project, offering a rare chance to transform and add value in a sought-after rural setting.
Location
A sizeable village with its bustling square and streets of stone houses. Overlooking the cobbled marketplace, from where you can embark on a tour of the village and discover several hidden alleyways and passages, is the historic Longnor Craft Centre.
Longnor nestles just below the top of a ridge between the Dove and Manifold valleys and provides an excellent starting point for many walks, ranging from short ambles by the river to serious upland treks.
Longnor is on the B5053 main road from Cheadle to Buxton about 6 miles (10 km) south of Buxton. It is at a crossroads with routes to Leek and Macclesfield to the west and Bakewell to the east.
West of Longnor are the Staffordshire Moorlands, with a summit at Axe Edge Moor towards the north and Morridge further south. North and east of Longnor is the White Peak section of the Peak District, with the Dove flowing in a steep-sided limestone valley of which the famous Dovedale is a small part.
