About The Warehouse
This substantial grade II listed property was originally built as a warehouse for Yew Tree Mill which sits on the opposite side of Woodhead Road from the rear elevation of the property. It is believed to date back to the mid-1800s and is of traditional stone built construction beneath a pitched stone slate roof.
Our clients purchased the property circa 2008 and after carrying out an extensive scheme of works including the renovation of the adjacent cottage, finally occupied the property in 2014. The works included the conversion of the 2 upper floors and attic space into living accommodation whilst the ground floor includes garaging and a workshop / store. Great care and attention has been taken to retain original features including exposed roof trusses, mullioned windows and stonework, complimenting them with high quality modern fittings throughout.
The main entrance door is to Old Road at ground floor level, this gives access to the entrance hall which in turn leads through to a workshop / storage area at the rear. Off the hall you will find a wet room / wc with stone floor and sink and a utility / boot room. The garage area is integral to the building and accessible via a remote control roller door – it provides comfortable space to accommodate 2 cars and is open to the aforementioned workshop / store. A door from this are provides access to a covered courtyard area at the side of the building, where a stone staircase leads up to the main living accommodation.
A door at the top of these stairs opens into the kitchen area which is fitted with an excellent range of fitted units with wooden worksurfaces and a large island unit which has a granite worksurface. The kitchen area is open to a dining area and in turn the living room area, partially divided by a superb wooden staircase with glazed balustrading. The living room area features a glazed double doors to a “Juliette” balcony and mullioned windows to the front which enjoy pleasant views over the rooftops to the countryside beyond.
The upper ground floor level has a wooden entrance door, accessible from Woodhead Road and side facing windows. On this floor there are 3 good sized double bedrooms and the house bathroom. The bathroom is finished to an excellent modern spec and features a walk in shower area. Bedroom 2 is of a particularly good size and features dual aspect windows. The other 2 rooms are double bedrooms, bedroom 4 is currently used as an office. The top floor of the building is within the attic space of the building and features a large principal bedroom, shower room and dressing room.
It has the benefit of wooden framed double glazing and a gas fired central heating system with underfloor heating throughout the living accommodation. The modern fixtures and fittings are of a high standard throughout and the original features include exposed beams, roof trusses and mullioned windows.
Externally, there is a stone paved seating area in front of the building. There are no formal gardens making the property perfect for buyers who are looking for a spacious home that can be locked up and left when travelling.
