Those interested can view all the photographs, explore the property brochure and arrange a viewing through Purplebricks.
One of the property's biggest attractions is its position in Old Glossop, an area known for its distinctive character and access to the surrounding landscape. The cottage is within walking distance of Glossop railway station and Manor Park, while good primary and secondary schools are also highlighted among its location benefits.
Inside, the accommodation has been arranged over three floors, with original features sitting alongside more modern additions. The ground floor includes a spacious lounge, where a hand-built stone fireplace and surround provide an impressive focal point.
A good-sized log burner adds to the cosy atmosphere, complementing the traditional stonework and giving the room a characterful feel. It is a space designed for relaxed evenings and entertaining, with the cottage's heritage remaining an important part of its appeal.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed for modern family life, with the renovation bringing a contemporary feel to the home's traditional surroundings. Its position within the ground-floor accommodation helps create a practical layout for everyday living.
The first floor provides three well-proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully appointed modern bathroom. This offers flexible accommodation for families, guests or anyone needing additional space for working from home.
However, it is the impressive third-floor master suite that is likely to attract particular attention. Created as part of an extensive loft conversion, this private retreat features a generous bedroom and its own en-suite facility.
A wall-to-wall picture window is the standout feature, framing panoramic views across the surrounding landscape and countryside. The elevated outlook gives the room a distinctive character, offering a striking perspective over the area and making the master suite one of the property's most memorable spaces.
The third-floor extension has been constructed using a new steel and floor joist integrated structure, with extensive insulation and work completed to building regulations. It provides a substantial additional level of accommodation while making the most of the property's position.
Across the four bedrooms and two bathrooms, the layout offers flexibility for different household needs, with the upper-floor master suite providing an especially attractive arrangement for buyers seeking a more private principal bedroom.
Outside, the property continues to offer plenty of appeal. The beautifully landscaped and turfed garden provides an attractive setting for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying time outdoors. Its carefully considered finish complements the cottage's character and adds another dimension to the home's overall presentation.
Another notable feature is the bespoke stone-built outbuilding, which has been designed to complement the main property. It comes with its own electrical consumer unit, lighting and sockets, alongside cavity walls and insulation.
The additional building offers several potential uses, including a home office, creative studio, leisure room or business space. It could also provide a dedicated area for hobbies, giving buyers valuable flexibility beyond the main accommodation.
The cottage is offered on a freehold basis and benefits from no onward vendor chain, while its combination of traditional stone-built character and extensive modernisation makes it a distinctive prospect in Old Glossop.
It is one of many properties available in Glossop and the surrounding area through Purplebricks. Buyers can view the full Manor Park Road listing, browse the photographs and find the details needed to arrange a viewing.
