Wheeldon Tree Farm represents a rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey commercial hospitality enterprise within the renowned Peak District National Park.
The Farmhouse is a beautifully presented period stone property, retaining numerous original features including flagstone floors, shuttered window reveals, exposed timbers and brickwork, fireplaces with log burners, and deep windowsills.
Entering through the reception hall, with its attractive staircase and original flagstone flooring, there is a charming sitting room featuring a brick fireplace with inset stove, recessed display shelves, and shuttered stone mullion window. Opposite is an elegant living room with flagstone flooring, stone fireplace housing a wood burner on a raised hearth, original fitted cupboards and shelving, and shuttered stone mullion window.
A rear hall provides access to a stylish cloakroom with painted panel wainscot, integrated WC, wash basin on a chrome stand, and attractive brick mullion detailing. Adjoining this is a cosy reading room with stone flag flooring and rear access. The spacious farmhouse-style dining kitchen is well-equipped with granite worktops, extensive cabinetry, integrated dishwasher, waste disposal, and a Stoves range cooker set within a brick chimney recess. Off the kitchen is a practical pantry/utility room.
Upstairs, the attractive landing with exposed timbers leads to a characterful master bedroom featuring a vaulted ceiling with exposed trusses, built-in wardrobes, and a luxury en-suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, both with high vaulted ceilings, served by a stunning family bathroom fitted with a slipper bath, separate shower enclosure, integrated WC, and wash basin on chrome stand, complemented by tiled walls and flooring.
