Across the yard stands an attractive and historic stone barn (with full planning permission as ancillary accommodation). On the ground floor is a bright, comfortable office space with French windows opening onto a sunken deck with the charming garden beyond. A stable door leads to a (current) workshop and a new shower room and toilet, and stairs to the upper floor. The first floor is a light and airy studio room, perfect for an office, workroom, meetings, hobbies, get-togethers or accommodation for visitors. There is also a wonderful large garage (a rare treat in Bonsall) with stone-flagged floor and heavy barn doors, which could otherwise be used as a stable or store, or integrated into the accommodation. The barn has privately owned solar PV panels on the roof and there is parking for two cars, with an electric vehicle charging point.
The cottage and barn are built from limestone with locally quarried gritstone quoins and have clearly been well maintained over the years. This interesting property, which is centrally located in one of the most desirable villages in the Derbyshire Dales, offers many lifestyle possibilities.
