Quarnford, Buxton

A substantial, detached stone rural dwelling which is superbly located in a tranquil, secluded plot, sheltered by mature trees and hedges, but with lovely views of the surrounding countryside. There is also a beautifully renovated detached building, ideal for use as an office or guest accommodation. The house has an attached barn which has been used as an excellent workshop but could be converted into further accommodation, subject to the relevant planning permissions. Well Springs has two reception rooms, a large dining kitchen, two bedrooms and two traditional 'landing bedrooms', both of good proportions and with the potential to convert into enclosed bedrooms. Well Springs benefits from both mains and spring water. It also has solar panels and the associated feed-in tariff income would be transferred. This is a fabulous property with tremendous potential and should be viewed to be fully appreciated.
