Set on the edge of Bakewell, this five-bedroom dormer bungalow occupies an impressive plot of approximately two acres, surrounded by mature woodland that creates a sense of privacy and space while remaining within easy reach of the town’s excellent amenities, leisure facilities and highly regarded school catchment.
Approached via a long driveway with off-road parking, a garage and a useful range of outbuildings offering flexibility for storage, workshops or future development. The grounds themselves are a defining feature, presenting an exceptional opportunity for landscaping, extension or even reconfiguration to suit individual requirements, subject to the necessary consents.
The accommodation is predominantly arranged over a single storey, making it highly practical while still offering scope to adapt and enhance. An entrance lobby opens into a central hallway that leads through to a bright triple-aspect sitting room, a separate dining room connects to a fitted kitchen and adjoining utility room, providing a functional layout that could be modernised or opened up to create a more contemporary living space.
The ground floor continues with two double bedrooms featuring built-in storage, alongside a shower room and separate WC. A further bedroom includes a wash hand basin, while an additional bedroom benefits from its own sitting area and separate WC, lending itself to guest accommodation or potential annex-style use.
Upstairs, the first floor comprises a bedroom with eaves storage, along with loft space that offers clear potential for enlargement or further development, allowing a buyer to tailor the property to their own specifications and lifestyle needs.
Offered with no upward chain and to be sold at auction, this is a property defined as much by its setting and possibilities as by its current layout, a substantial home in a sought-after location, ready to be reimagined and enhanced to realise its full potential.
