Situated in the heart of the sought-after village of Hognaston, Ye Old Forge is a unique four-bedroom, four-bathroom cottage exuding character and historical charm. Once the village forge, this historic property retains many original features, enhancing its timeless appeal. The property benefits from LPG-fired central heating and has recently been updated with uPVC double glazing on most windows.
Situated on a generous 1.55-acre plot, the property features a beautifully maintained garden with mature trees and shrubs, ample off-street parking, and a detached double garage complemented by a carport. Its idyllic location offers the perfect village lifestyle, with a local pub just a short stroll away and the stunning Carsington Water close by. The nearby towns of Ashbourne, Wirksworth, Matlock, and Belper provide further amenities within easy reach. Whether you're looking for a spacious family home or a place to make your own, Ye Old Forge offers an appealing combination of charm, history, and potential.
Stepping through the front porch, it has a stone flag flooring, which leads into the reception hallway. The hallway features wooden flooring and showcases the original forge opening with its striking stone surround, a nod to the property's historic origins. From here, a staircase leads to the first floor, while doors lead to the sitting room and dining room.
The dining room is generously sized, centered around a striking large fireplace with an inset burner, creating a warm and inviting focal point. The sitting room has wooden flooring and a feature range fireplace, with a useful built-in cupboard.
The dining kitchen features stone flooring, an electric radiator, and a charming farmhouse-style design, complete with a stainless-steel sink, a range of cupboards, and a freestanding electric oven with a four-ring hob. Adding to its character, the kitchen includes a Rayburn Nouvelle central heating range cooker. A concertina door reveals a practical larder cupboard or baking area, equipped with rolled-edge preparation surfaces, built-in shelving, and appliance space beneath. Additionally, a door leads to a spacious pantry, offering cupboards, more preparation surfaces, space for a fridge/freezer, plumbing for a washing machine, and further built-in shelving for added storage.
A door from the dining kitchen opens into the snug, which continues the stone flooring. The room features a fireplace with an inset open fire as the focal point. There are doors leading out to the rear garden and another door providing access to the guest cloakroom. The guest cloak room has a wash hand basin and a low-level WC.
