Gorton Cottage is a charming character home that combines original period features with modern upgrades and extensions. The property dates back to 1740 and has undergone refurbishments, including a 1923 renovation by John Smedley. The interior features beamed ceilings, mullioned windows, and fireplaces, while the exterior has a range of informal gardens and patios with views of the surrounding countryside. The property has three reception rooms, a breakfast kitchen, cloakroom, shower room, and utility room on the ground floor, and three double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a nursery/dressing room on the first floor. The property also has a private drive, car standing, and a two-storey garage/workshop with an adjoining utility kitchen, offering potential for a workshop, home office, or self-contained annexe. Located in the village of Lea, the property is close to the Derbyshire Dales countryside and has good road links to nearby towns and cities.
