Roeside Farm, Bradshaw Lane, Chapel-En-Le-Frith, High Peak, SK23

Roeside Farm is a charming and spacious family home in a tranquil countryside setting. The farm echoes an architectural style dating to the 1600s, with many of the period features beautifully preserved in the l-shape footprint typical of the same period. The property boasts a long country driveway, a delightful front yard overflowing with flowers, and expansive, peaceful gardens to the side and rear. The home offers breathtaking views over the surrounding fields, providing a true escape to the English countryside. Within the curtilage of the farmhouse is the Chapel-en-le-Frith natural swimming pool, once the local playground of nearby residents. The pool is fed by the brook that runs through the property and is nowadays home to wild ducks.

Step Inside

Most impressive is the expansive living room featuring a striking red brick fireplace with a cast iron wood burner, ideal for cosy nights in. The exposed and striking beams enclosed by the A-frame ceilings add to the bountiful character, while the original wood flooring complements the rustic charm. The adjacent dining room seamlessly blends with contemporary elements, featuring a stone fireplace and feature wall, complimenting the stone mullion windows of this room.
