Chapel Street, Monyash

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial, income-generating country estate, configured as a large holiday letting complex. Dating back to 1640, this charming detached farmhouse occupies a superb rural position on the edge of the sought-after Peak District village of Monyash, enjoying far-reaching southerly views. Set within gated private grounds of approximately 5.14 acres, the property includes extensive off-road parking, garaging and grazing land.
The main farmhouse is arranged as a spacious five double bedroom holiday let, offering flexible accommodation ideal for larger groups, with four reception rooms and four double bedrooms, blending period character with practical living space.
In addition, there are two adjoining, self-contained one-bedroom holiday cottages, providing comfortable accommodation, ideal for supplementary income or independent guest use.
The scale and layout also make the property perfectly suited as a substantial family home. The main house offers generous space for a large or multi-generational family, with versatile reception rooms for both everyday living and entertaining.
Externally, the grounds are equally impressive, featuring garaging for three vehicles, a walled outdoor entertaining area with hot tub, WC and shower facilities, equestrian amenities including stabling for six horses. A substantial two-storey barn offers further potential for conversion, subject to the necessary consents.
Monyash lies in the heart of the Peak District National Park, just five miles from Bakewell, with a range of local amenities including a village pub, café and primary school and good access to Buxton, Ashbourne and Matlock.
