ECCLESBOURNE SCHOOL CATCHMENT AREA - A MAGNIFICENT GEORGIAN HOUSE WITH LARGE OUTBUILDINGS located in the heart of Duffield - Total 4,133 sq. ft
This beautifully presented property requires a full internal viewing to fully appreciate the SIZE and VERSATILITY of accommodation on offer - IDEAL FAMILY HOME or BUSINESS - VIEWING ESSENTIAL
The main façade is very deceptive whilst attractive in appearance. The main dwelling is believed to date back to the 18th century. The real surprise comes by way of the large barn located at the rear of the plot which, we understand, pre-dates the main dwelling considerably and has previously been used as a bakery and chapel.
Those local to Duffield may well be aware that, in more recent years, the property has been used for commercial purposes by way of an antiques showroom and more recently as Ruth Eley Interiors. As a result, subject to planning, there are a variety of potential uses/options in terms of developing the buildings to suit the next owner's specific requirements. The property itself, to the front, boasts an extensive driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles.
Access to a private courtyard/driveway can be gained via a pair of gates which culminate to a workshop/studio to the rear. To the rear of the property and side of the barn are the main gardens which are private and well established.
The stone barn, which offers fantastic potential, is of simpler design and incorporates an extremely large room to the ground floor with impressive staircase leading off to a large first floor room/space with exposed trusswork and small office.
