Pen Farm; a stunning stone-built farmhouse occupying an elevated position overlooking the breathtaking Manifold Valley, set within approximately five acres of gardens and grazing land. Rich in history and character, the property dates back to the 18th century and retains a wealth of original features, whilst offering extensive and versatile accommodation together with an impressive range of outbuildings including stables, workshops, garaging and a beautifully converted barn. Enjoying exceptional privacy, panoramic countryside views and excellent potential for multi-generational living or holiday accommodation, Pen Farm represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive country home in an idyllic Staffordshire Moorlands setting.

Denise White Estate Agents Comments - Pen Farm is a truly characterful stone-built farmhouse with origins dating back to the 18th century, and later extended during the 19th century. Formerly part of the historic Devonshire Estate, the property is believed to have served as a resting and holding point for packhorses transporting copper ore from the nearby Ecton Hill mines through the picturesque Manifold Valley, giving the home a fascinating connection to the rich industrial and agricultural heritage of the Staffordshire Moorlands.

Occupying an enviable elevated position with breathtaking panoramic views across the stunning Manifold Valley, Pen Farm enjoys an exceptional sense of peace, privacy and seclusion, surrounded by unspoilt countryside and rolling pastureland. Steeped in original charm and period character, the property retains an abundance of authentic features including exposed timber beams, quarry tiled flooring, stone fireplaces and traditional farmhouse detailing, whilst offering extensive and highly versatile accommodation ideally suited to family living, multi-generational occupation or potential holiday accommodation opportunities.

Set within approximately five acres of beautifully maintained gardens and grazing paddocks, Pen Farm is further complemented by an impressive range of outbuildings including stables, workshops, garaging and a superbly converted barn finished to an exceptional standard, offering excellent flexibility for a variety of uses. Rarely does a property combine such historic significance, lifestyle appeal, versatility and breathtaking surroundings, making Pen Farm a remarkable opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive country residence in one of the Staffordshire Moorlands' most idyllic settings.

Location - Nestled within the heart of the Staffordshire Moorlands, the picturesque village of Grindon offers an exceptional lifestyle surrounded by some of the most breathtaking countryside the Peak District has to offer. Set amidst rolling hills and unspoilt landscapes, the village enjoys a peaceful rural atmosphere whilst remaining well connected to a range of nearby market towns and local amenities.

Grindon sits on the edge of the spectacular Manifold Valley, a renowned destination celebrated for its scenic walking routes, cycling trails and dramatic limestone scenery.

The surrounding countryside is rich in beauty throughout every season, making it an ideal setting for those seeking a quieter pace of life immersed in nature.

Despite its tranquil setting, Grindon remains conveniently positioned for access to a number of thriving market towns. The historic town of Leek offers an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and traditional pubs, alongside regular markets and community events. The elegant spa town of Buxton is easily accessible and provides further amenities including theatres, supermarkets and leisure facilities, whilst the charming market town of Ashbourne is famed for its cobbled streets, boutique shopping and gateway access to the southern Peak District.

The village itself enjoys a welcoming community feel, with a traditional country pub, village hall and nearby schooling options contributing to its enduring appeal for families, retirees and those looking for a countryside retreat alike. Combining rural charm with accessibility to both natural beauty and everyday conveniences, Grindon represents an idyllic location in which to enjoy the very best of Staffordshire Moorlands living.
