Description

This two-storey stone barn presents an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment, nestled within the scenic Peak District National Park. With planning permission already in place for conversion into a three-bedroom dwelling, this property is poised for transformation into a charming countryside home. Set in a tranquil rural area just south of the village of Longnor, the barn commands a picturesque setting and is complemented by an adjoining paddock that spans approximately 1.84 acres (0.74 hectares). The expansive outdoor space not only enhances the property's appeal but also opens up potential for various agricultural or recreational uses, making it ideal for those interested in country living or hobby farming. The proposed layout includes three spacious double bedrooms on the ground floor, one of which features an ensuite bathroom. A family bathroom completes this level. The first floor is designed as an open-plan kitchen and dining area with an adjoining living space that takes full advantage of the breathtaking views characteristic of the region. Externally, the barn benefits from a private entrance and a driveway capable of accommodating multiple vehicles. The well-maintained walled patio and lawned garden area create inviting outdoor spaces perfect for relaxation or entertaining. Situated just a mile from Longnor, residents will have access to essential amenities including a primary school, local shop, pub, and community church. While maintaining its rural charm, the property enjoys good transport links via the B5053 to nearby market towns such as Bakewell, Buxton, and Leek, which offer a wider range of facilities and services. Furthermore, major cities like Sheffield, Derby, and Manchester are accessible within an hour's drive; rail connections allow for commutes to London within reach as well. Given its approved planning status for conversion and attractive location within a sought-after national park setting, this property represents not only a unique residential opportunity but also significant investment potential in one of England's most beautiful landscapes. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate what this barn has to offer in terms of lifestyle and development possibilities.
