£625,000 - £650,000 (Guide price) Gated tranquillity in one of the region’s most desirable postcodes. Welcome to Ruffino Cottage — a striking mid-century home set within a remarkable 0.6 acre plot, enjoying peaceful open countryside views from a private gated setting shared by just two homes.
Thoughtfully designed to embrace its surroundings, the property offers a wonderful sense of privacy and connection with nature. The gardens and outlook are truly a defining feature of the home. Beautiful mature planting surrounds the property, while large openings from the house into the outside space create a seamless relationship between indoors and out, giving the home a wonderful feeling of openness. It is a setting perfectly suited to both relaxed everyday living and memorable gatherings with family and friends.
Natural light and space are central to the character of the home. Expansive windows and flowing living areas — hallmarks of its mid-century design — flood the interiors with daylight while framing views across the gardens and surrounding countryside, creating a home that feels calm, spacious and wonderfully private.
The accommodation
Extending to approximately 1,786 sqft of accommodation arranged across a single storey, the home offers a layout that is both practical and full of personality. The accommodation begins with a bright and welcoming entrance hallway leading to a retro-inspired shaker kitchen complete with pantry and separate utility room. The living spaces are particularly impressive, featuring a fantastic split-level living and dining area with expansive windows that draw in natural light and showcase the surrounding views. A separate conservatory provides yet another place to relax and enjoy the gardens.
The home also offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom and two WCs, providing flexible accommodation for a variety of lifestyles.
Externally
Externally, the sense of space continues. A gated driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles, alongside a detached double garage, while the beautifully established gardens wrap around the home — creating a truly special and private environment rarely found in such a sought-after setting. The plot measures at approximately 0.6 acres.
Why Holymoorside?
Holymoorside is one of Chesterfield’s most coveted village addresses; a place where countryside tranquillity meets a warm and welcoming community. Nestled at the gateway to the Peak District National Park, it offers the best of rural living while remaining effortlessly connected to Chesterfield, Sheffield and Derbyshire’s wider transport network.
Life here moves at a gentler pace. Winding lanes, scenic trails and protected woodland surround the village, creating endless opportunities for walking, cycling and outdoor adventure. Whether it’s a summer afternoon on the moors, a morning run by the mill pond or a family stroll along tree-lined footpaths, nature is always right on the doorstep.
At the heart of the village sits a thriving community spirit. Families are drawn to its excellent local schooling, including Walton Holymoorside Primary, while the bustling village hall, tennis club, play park and friendly pubs create spaces for social connection. From local fetes and seasonal events to clubs and societies, there’s a strong sense of belonging that is increasingly rare to find.
Despite its idyllic setting, Holymoorside is remarkably accessible. Chesterfield town centre and mainline rail links are just minutes away, offering fast connections to major cities, while the Peak District’s breathtaking landscapes lie in easy reach for weekend adventure.
It’s a rare blend; the calm of a countryside village, the warmth of a connected community, and the convenience of modern accessibility. For many, that balance is what makes Holymoorside truly special.
Dales & Peaks ForwardMove please read
Dales & Peaks is marketing this Property with the benefit of ForwardMove. Dales & Peaks has introduced ForwardMove to help speed up the sales process, minimise sale fall-throughs and give more certainty to both the Seller and the Buyer.
Purchasers will benefit from the Buyer Information Pack (BIP), which we have created with our legal partners, to give buyers more information before they agree to purchase.
The pack includes:
Property information form (TA6)
Fixtures and contents form (TA10)
Official Copy of the Register (OC1)
Title Plan (OC2)
Local Search*
Water and Drainage Search*
Coal and Mining Search*
Homescreen / Environmental Search*
(Dales & Peaks has ordered the local, drainage, coal and homescreen / environmental searches; we will add these to the BIP as they become available)
ForwardMove allows the sale process to be completed significantly quicker than a ‘normal sale’. This is because the legal work, usually done in the first four to eight weeks after the sale is agreed, has already been completed. The searches, which can take up to five weeks, are ordered on the day the listing goes live and are transferable to the successful Buyer as part of their legal due diligence.
Additionally, and on behalf of the Seller, Dales & Peaks requests that the successful Buyer enters into a Reservation Agreement and pays the Reservation Agreement Fee of £595 (including VAT). This includes payment for the Buyer Information Pack and all the searches (which a buyer typically purchases separately after the sale is agreed).
Upon receipt of the signed Reservation Agreement, payment of the Reservation Agreement Fee, completion of ID and AML checks and the issuing of the Memorandum of Sale, the Seller will agree to take the Property off the market and market it as Sold Subject To Contract (SSTC).
During the Reservation Agreement period, the Seller will reject all offers and not enter into another agreement with any other buyer. The reservation period is agreed upon at the time of sale but is usually between 60 and 120 days.
The Reservation Fee is non-refundable except where the Seller withdraws from the sale. A copy of the Reservation Agreement is available on request, and Dales & Peaks advises potential buyers to seek legal advice before entering into the Reservation Agreement.
If you have any questions about the process or want to know how selling or buying with Dales & Peaks ForwardMove could benefit you, please speak to a member of the Dales & Peaks team.
