OWNER COMMENT
“Owl Greave Farm House has worked brilliantly for us as a family for many years. Having completely separate living accommodation means everyone can have their own independence and privacy, while still being right next door when you want to spend time together. Sitting out at the front of the house with the horses in the fields and that view across towards Combs Reservoir and Ladder Hill is pretty special too. It’s a wonderfully peaceful place to live.”
LOCAL AREA
Combs is one of those rare High Peak locations where the countryside isn't somewhere you travel to at the weekend, it's simply where you live. Surrounded by working farmland beneath Combs Moss and Ladder Hill, with Combs Reservoir at the heart of the valley, walking routes begin almost from the doorstep. The Beehive Inn gives the village its own proper country pub, while the highly regarded Combs Infant School is a real asset for families looking to put down roots here.
Despite how rural it feels, everyday life remains remarkably convenient. Chapel-en-le-Frith and Whaley Bridge are both close by for shops, supermarkets and wider amenities, with railway stations providing connections towards Manchester. Buxton is easily reached too, making Combs particularly appealing to anyone relocating in search of proper countryside without wanting to become disconnected from the towns and transport links around them.
AGENT'S DESCRIPTION
Follow the meandering driveway through the farmland and Owl Greave Farm House begins to reveal what makes its setting so special. This four-bedroom farmhouse rises above you offering 2,098 sq ft of characterful accommodation, with exposed stone, oak beams and traditional fireplaces inside, but it's the view from the front that stops you first. Horses graze in the paddocks immediately beyond the garden, with open farmland stretching towards Combs Reservoir and Ladder Hill beyond. It's proper rural living, rather than simply a house with a countryside view.
The main house has the comfortable, lived-in character that suits the setting. A substantial log burner sits within the stone fireplace in the lounge, while the kitchen diner combines exposed beams and stonework with plenty of space for everyday family life. Three bedrooms sit across the upper floors, including a particularly generous principal bedroom where the farmland views become the first thing you see in the morning.
What makes Owl Greave Farm House particularly interesting for a multigenerational family is the adjoining self-contained annexe. Completely independent at present, with its own entrance, kitchen, lounge, bedroom and bathroom, it effectively gives a grown-up young adult or older parent a home of their own right next door. The bedroom arrangement extends into the upper floor alongside the main house, giving the overall property four bedrooms. It's how the current family use Owl Greave Farm House today, but could similarly be utilised as a holiday let business opportunity to provide additional income, or the original connections between the two parts of the house could also be reinstated should a future owner prefer to bring everything back together as one substantial home.
Outside, the front garden has a lawn, a small patio and a seating area positioned to make the most of that remarkable outlook, whether that's morning coffee or simply watching the horses across the paddocks. To the rear, a completely private and secluded garden offers another lawn, established planting and a patio, with space for a greenhouse. Parking is equally generous, with a driveway for around five cars and a covered carport.
Owl Greave Farm House offers something increasingly difficult to find: the character and seclusion of a farmhouse setting, the ability for different generations of the same family to live with genuine independence, and the convenience of Combs, Chapel-en-le-Frith and Whaley Bridge close by. With no work required and no onward chain, it's a home ready for its next family to make the most of a very special corner of the High Peak.
