Originally serving as Glossopdale Sixth Form College, this distinguished manor house has enjoyed many incarnations throughout its history. Now, it has been meticulously transformed into an exclusive development of 5 prestigious homes with Talbot House standing proudly as the flagship home.

This impressive property represents the pinnacle of the project: a sympathetic restoration of period architecture, including exquisite plasterwork and soaring ceilings, with the finest contemporary finishes. Every element of the renovation has been executed with exceptional care, ensuring the home meets the demands of modern living while preserving its timeless character and charm.

Upon arrival, Talbot House immediately captivates with its striking bay-fronted façade and commanding presence. Inside, a grand entrance hall and elegant bespoke staircase set the tone for the extensive accommodation arranged over three floors. High ceilings, detailed plaster cornices, and large windows enhance the sense of space and light throughout.

The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance porch leading into a substantial hallway, a magnificent lounge with feature fireplace and triple windows that flood the room with natural light, and a second reception room with another stunning fireplace. The heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen and dining area, thoughtfully designed to combine style and functionality. The kitchen features quartz worktops, a large central island with integrated electric hob and extractor, built-in dishwasher, wine fridge, and space for an American-style fridge freezer. A handcrafted wooden fire surround with a modern log-burning stove adds a warm focal point to the seating area. An orangery to the side provides additional living space, incorporating a practical utility room and a downstairs WC.

The first floor hosts a magnificent principal bedroom suite of over 370sqft offering ample space for a private lounge area and a beautifully appointed en-suite shower room with dual wash basins. 2 further double bedrooms, another en-suite, and a luxurious family bathroom complete this floor.

The top floor has 3 further double bedrooms, all with en-suite shower rooms and the current owners have created a useful storage cupboard.

Externally, the property is approached via a private driveway shared with only three homes and offers generous parking for multiple vehicles. The front aspect enjoys a level lawned garden complemented by an extensive woodland area extending to approximately 1/3rd of an acre.
