Description
Roache House Farm has land extending to approximately 2.63 acres. Situated within the sought after Peak District National Park, the beautifully restored farmhouse enjoys spectacular views from all aspects including The Roaches, Hen Clouds, Tittesworth Lake and the market town of Leek. The main farmhouse/barn is exquisitely presented throughout to a high standard and boasts a wealth of period features in addition to quality fixtures and fittings. Within the grounds are formal gardens, garage and outbuilding, plus in current configuration, two successful holiday rental cottages, both consisting of two bedrooms, bathroom and solid wood handmade kitchens. The separate two bedroom independent stand alone barn, 'The Little Barn' is currently a most successful holiday rental.
The spacious Farmhouse is accessed from the rear to a sizeable entrance hall with vaulted ceiling which leads to an inner hall. This hallway gives access to a study/bedroom, cloakroom and kitchen / dining room. The study would make an ideal ground floor bedroom but a great place for those looking to work from home. The new solid wood handmade kitchen has been crafted by Mudd & Co of Leek and boasts dual aspect windows, original timberwork and exposed stonework, plus a range of units with granite worksurfaces, Belfast sink, new blue electric Aga, gas cooker point and quarry-tiled floor. The Kitchen then leads to the lower hall, with staircase to the first floor, and on to the living room. A snug room with dual aspect windows, exposed ceiling beams and feature fireplace, this room also boasts an external door to the front. Next to this is the utility room which has high quality oak units and offers potential to be a further kitchen / butler's pantry. The notable primary bedroom offers a vaulted ceiling, windows to three elevations, exposed original “A” frames and access to the further double bedroom and family bathroom with the bathroom being fully fitted with high quality fixtures and fittings.
Roache House Farm can easily accommodate two families if so desired. The gardens surrounding the farmhouse are laid to lawns and patio and seating areas are strategically positioned to take the full advantage of the far reaching views. The adjacent land is all grassland and ideal for grazing.
