R O S E B A N K C O T T A G E

Set in the beautiful Peak District village of Kirk Ireton, is this

magnificent four-bedroom, detached period property. Retaining many of its original charming features, the

property takes us back to circa 1600s when it’s believed to be built.

The Grade II Listed residence has three reception areas and a further kitchen area on the ground floor, with two staircases leading to the first floor, having a double bedroom accessed by one staircase and the other three bedrooms and the family bathroom accessed from the other staircase. In need of some modernisation internally, the property sits on a generous garden plot with a drive

and double garage to the front and lawned gardens, vegetable patch and small outhouse to the rear and side. Located centrally in the village, across from a highly regarded primary school, this gem of a property will suit families for a generation.

Ground Floor

Upon entering through the front porch area, this contains the old coal store and a useful downstairs WC/utility area. The reception hallway then leads you to the kitchen to one side and the main sitting room on the other. The kitchen has storage options and an electric hob and oven. The living room has an amazing exposed beam ceiling with the uneven nature of the room, adding to the character and charm of the property. Having an multifuel fire set in a stunning, stone fireplace and mullioned windows to front and back. The secondary reception room to the ground floor is an amazing room with a real wow factor, with exposed Framed Cruck beams with old chains, hooks, stunning fireplace and a wooden open staircase to the first floor.

KEY FEATURES

SELLER INSIGHT Rosebank Cottage is a charming period home, situated in the pretty village of Kirk Ireton, in the heart of the glorious Derbyshire

Dales. The present owner was immediately enchanted by the far-reaching views across the picturesque countryside, and by the great character and history of the house. It has been a much-loved spacious family home for over forty years.

The cottage began life in the seventeenth century and needed some restoration. The old workshop became the dining room, and an upstairs en suite bedroom was added. All the work was completed with great care and sympathy so that today the home is a perfect blend of period detail with the comforts of the twenty-first century.

The beams and old stone inglenooks give the house a wow factor. The family particularly loved the dining room, where the fantastic ‘A-Frame,’ Cruck beam adds a further reminder of the home’s history. This room is the sociable centre of the home, where large gatherings were enjoyed by family and friends.

The modern kitchen is a place for casual family meals, before an evening’s relaxation in the delightful sitting room. On a wintery night, with a fire glowing, light flickering across the beams and the curtains closed; there can be no better place to be. It has a timeless feel and the family have loved being a part of the rich history of the cottage.

The garden is laid to lawn, with border shrubs, and a vegetable patch for the keen gardener. It was the ideal playground and has been home to chickens, ducks and a goat. Above all the scenic views instil a sense of calm.

Kirk Ireton is a friendly village, with a well-used village hall. There is a primary school, an excellent pub and a village store for everyday essentials. The village is only a few miles from the market town of Wirksworth and a short drive to Ashbourne, known as, ‘The Gateway to the Peaks.’ There are endless rambles through the Peaks: and within walking distance is Carsington Reservoir, where you can sail, walk, cycle, fish and enjoy the stunning surroundings.

The owner will sorely miss Rosebank Cottage, but has very many happy memories of it as a wonderful and welcoming family home.*
