Forges Cottages, 63-65 Greenhill Main Road, S8
FOR SALE: £450,000
Dating back to the 18th century and steeped in rich local history, Forges Cottages is a truly stunning Grade II listed, three-bedroom stone-built cottage that offers an exceptionally rare opportunity to the open market. Arranged over two generous floors, the property enjoys a wonderfully deceptive sense of space and an abundance of natural light throughout, making internal viewing absolutely essential to fully appreciate both the size and character on offer.
Internally, the accommodation comprises an entrance lobby with stairs rising to the first floor. The spacious lounge is full of character and features a striking multi-fuel burner as its focal point, complemented by dual-aspect windows that flood the room with natural light. The well-presented kitchen enjoys an open-plan aspect into the dining room, creating an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining.
To the first floor, there is a large master bedroom complete with fitted wardrobes, a second double bedroom, and a larger-than-average third bedroom, offering excellent flexibility for family living, guest accommodation or home working. An attractive four-piece bathroom suite completes the first-floor accommodation.
The cottage retains a wealth of original features and period charm, synonymous with a home of this era, which are seamlessly blended with thoughtful modern touches, creating a warm and inviting living environment ideally suited to both growing families and professional couples alike.
Externally, the property enjoys an extensive private front garden, providing a peaceful outdoor space for relaxing and entertaining, along with ample off-road parking. A particular highlight is the large detached garage, which is not listed, offering exciting potential to be converted into a separate home office, studio or annexe, subject to the necessary consents. There is also further scope to enhance the existing layout to create a truly bespoke forever home.
Ideally positioned in the very heart of the highly sought-after Greenhill village, the cottage is set well back from a quiet residential road, offering both privacy and tranquillity. The property falls within the catchment for well-regarded local schools, while a variety of amenities, parks and countryside walks are all within a short stroll. The Peak District National Park lies close by, providing an enviable lifestyle setting.
