Church Lane, Elkstones, Longnor

The sale of Furlong Farm represents a fabulous opportunity to purchase a detached country cottage set in a most delightful rural setting with a range of useful outbuilding and around eight acres.

The property is located at the end of Church Lane just on the outskirts of the very sought after Staffordshire Moorlands village of Elkstones nestled in the Peak District National Park.

Accommodation is rather unique as the property is now one family dwelling that was previously two separate cottages and as such offers an option for separate living accommodation for relatives.

The property benefits from a mixture of gas and oil central heating systems, underfloor heating to certain rooms and solar panels producing a tidy income.

The plot and land in total amounts 7.87 acres or thereabouts with well maintained gardens, stable block with power, lighting and water (24' x 30'5) a large workshop (27'1 x 29'8) with power, lighting, inspection pit and electric door.

Elkstones is close to the picturesque villages of Warslow, Hartington and Longnor which boast a selection of gastro pubs and country stores.

The location is an ideal base to explore the magnificent Manifold and Dove Valleys, the Millstone Grit Outcrop or The Roaches. There is also easy access to the Tissington, High Peak and Monsal Trails ideal for walkers or cyclists. The nearby Tittesworth Reservoir has a wonderful children's playground, visitors centre and is a bird watchers' paradise.

Although it enjoys the seclusion of the countryside, Elkstones is easily commutable to Leek or Buxton and further on to Manchester, Sheffield and major midlands cities. The spa town of Buxton is home to the famous Opera House, Pavilion Gardens, Crescent Spa and charming town centre.

An outstanding country property that an inspection of is fully recommended.
