5 bed property for sale

Hockerley Lane, Whaley Bridge SK23

Peacehaven is a substantial and highly versatile five-bedroom stone-built home, offering generous accommodation arranged across multiple levels within the attractive hamlet setting. Originally part of the neighbouring Hockerley Hall Farm, the property was rebuilt as a barn conversion around 1990 and now combines its agricultural heritage with spacious and adaptable living accommodation. Characterful features include a generous open-plan kitchen and dining room, a triple-aspect reception room with a multi-fuel burner, and flexible bedroom accommodation, while hillside views and attractive walks directly from the doorstep further enhance its semi-rural appeal.

Wrapping around the property, the outside space combines a lawned front garden with a gated cobbled driveway and courtyard providing ample parking, together with a substantial hardscaped area offering further parking or a genuine blank canvas for keen gardeners. While well maintained and ready to enjoy, Peacehaven offers excellent scope for a purchaser to update and personalise the interiors over time, creating a home tailored to their own tastes. Offered with no onward chain and Freehold tenure, this is an excellent opportunity to acquire a substantial and characterful home in the peaceful Hockerley Hall Farm setting, surrounded by the High Peak countryside.
