Pinfold Road, Buxton, SK17

OWNER COMMENT:

“We've lived here for 24 years, and having grown up in Tideswell, it's always felt like home. It's one of those villages where you really put down roots. We love being able to walk across to Miller's Dale, pop into Elliott's for fish and chips or enjoy a meal at The Merchant's Yard. Having the Co-op nearby is so handy, and there's nothing quite like walking down to The George or the Horse and Jockey for a drink. Tideswell has been a lovely place to call home for over 60 years.”

LOCAL AREA:

Tideswell is one of the Peak District's best-loved villages, known for its impressive 14th-century church, often called the Cathedral of the Peak. There's a real sense of community here, with independent shops, a Co-op for convenience shopping, a host of traditional Peak District pubs and places to eat, including The Merchant's Yard and Elliott's fish and chip shop. The village also has its own primary school, medical centre and everyday amenities, making it a practical rural retreat for families as well as a beautiful place to live. Countryside walks begin close to home, with routes towards Miller's Dale, the Monsal Trail and the surrounding limestone dales offering plenty to explore. Buxton, Bakewell and Chesterfield are both within easy reach for further shopping, schools and leisure facilities, while the village's position within the Peak District National Park makes outdoor life a natural part of living here.

AGENT'S DESCRIPTION:

For a family looking to put down roots in Tideswell, Pinfold Road offers something increasingly difficult to find: three genuinely double bedrooms, generous living accommodation and plenty of parking, all within walking distance of the village's shops, schools and pubs. This semi-detached home has been in the same family's ownership for 24 years and offers a wonderful opportunity for its next owners to make it their own. There's scope to update the interior layout to individual tastes without having to compromise on the space available, while its position towards the edge of the village provides a quieter setting with parking, and with amenities only a short walk away.

The L-shaped lounge and dining room is particularly spacious, with enough room for family evenings and a dining table where everyone can gather for Sunday dinners or helping the kids with homework, and a log burner bringing warmth in the colder months, while French doors open onto the rear garden, allowing the outside space to be enjoyed during warmer weather. The adjoining kitchen retains its traditional grey cabinetry, granite-effect worktops, and an integrated electric oven and gas hob. Beyond this, a separate pantry and utility room provides valuable storage for food, larger appliances and the everyday things that can otherwise clutter a family kitchen.

Upstairs, all three bedrooms are comfortabe doubles, with the largest enjoying exposed beams, Velux roof windows and useful eaves storage. The other two bedrooms are well proportioned, with the front bedroom looking beyond the neighbouring rooftops towards the surrounding countryside.

The generous first-floor landing, has enough space for a dedicated desk and office setup, perfect for anyone working from home, without needing to sacrifice one of the bedrooms or the practicality and conversion opportunities offered by the integral garage. A family bathroom with a bath, basin and WC sits central on the first floor with the easy possibility to add an adjoining en suite into the largest bedroom.

Outside, the rear garden is designed to be easy to maintain, with paved space for outdoor dining, established flowerbeds and plenty of shed storage. There's also direct access to the integral garage, which has lighting, power and a manual roller door. The driveway provides additional parking for two to three vehicles, a rare advantage in the popular Peak District village of Tideswell.

With its generous accommodation, useful storage and scope for personalisation, this property on Pinfold Road is a home that offers plenty of potential for a growing family looking to settle into Peak District village life.

Occupancy restriction: The property is subject to a Derbyshire local occupancy restriction under Section 157 of the Housing Act 1985. Prospective purchasers should confirm their eligibility and the applicable conditions with their solicitor before proceeding.
