A Wonderful Family Home in a Peaceful Glossop Setting
The Elms is a substantial and much-loved family home, quietly positioned in one of Glossop's sought-after residential settings and forming one of just three properties within this peaceful cul-de-sac.
Built in 1993 and lovingly lived in by the current owners for the past 23 years, this is a home that has evolved beautifully with family life. It offers generous accommodation, excellent entertaining space, a large garden and superb practical amenities, while its position provides the rare combination of peace and privacy with everything Glossop has to offer within easy reach.
Inside, the home has been designed with family life and entertaining very much in mind. The kitchen, fitted in 2008, is a particularly well-equipped space with granite worktops and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances. These include a Bosch dishwasher, entertaining warming drawer, Siemens six-burner hob combining two induction, two gas and two halogen rings, an American-style Gaggenau fridge freezer, Siemens drinks fridge and AEG double oven.
The kitchen and utility room benefit from underfloor heating, making these hardworking spaces particularly comfortable throughout the year.
The utility room also houses the Glow-worm combination boiler, which has been in place for approximately 17 years and continues to provide ample hot water to all of the bathrooms — meaning there is no need for the family to wait for hot water.
Thoughtfully extended and beautifully appointed
In 2008, the utility area and upstairs bathrooms were extended with full planning permission, creating additional space and making the accommodation particularly well suited to modern family living.
The master bathroom is a lovely retreat, complete with a Jacuzzi bath and Matki shower.
The principal bedroom was refitted in 2023 and has been thoughtfully designed with both comfort and practicality in mind. There is a Merlin shower, heated and illuminated wall mirror, beautifully integrated bedroom furniture with lighting, a dressing room and a fitted dressing table with generous electrical provision.
The guest bedroom benefits from its own ensuite, while two further bedrooms have fitted Hulsta bedroom furniture, providing excellent storage without compromising on space.
A garden made for family gatherings
Outside, The Elms really comes into its own.
The property occupies a generous plot with a large garden that has played an important part in family life over the years. It is a wonderful space for children to enjoy, but equally lends itself to entertaining, with plenty of room for small marquees and family gatherings.
The owners describe the house as an amazing family party home, and it is easy to see why. There is space for everyone to come together, whether that is a summer celebration in the garden, a relaxed family lunch or simply enjoying the peace and greenery surrounding the property.
The driveway is another particularly practical feature, comfortably accommodating approximately five to six cars, while the double garage has an electric door.
The owners also own the land to the side of the property, providing an additional sense of space and privacy.
A peaceful position with everything close by
One of the great attractions of The Elms is its setting.
The property sits in a peaceful and highly regarded residential area of Glossop, while being directly adjoining Howard Park, with a path from the rear gate giving easy access. Glossop Swimming Baths are also within the park, making this an exceptionally convenient location for families.
Several well-regarded schools are within easy reach, including two primary schools within walking distance and two secondary schools nearby.
There are also two railway stations — Glossop and Dinting — within walking distance, providing convenient connections towards Manchester and making the property particularly appealing for commuters.
For drivers, the location works equally well. The Hadfield and Dinting routes provide alternative ways out of Glossop, which can be particularly useful at busier times.
Glossop life on the doorstep
Living at The Elms means you are never far from the character and energy of Glossop town centre.
The town has developed a fantastic independent food and drink scene, with a good choice of restaurants, cafés, traditional pubs and stylish wine bars. The recently established market hall has become a popular local destination, while a variety of venues host regular live music, singers and events.
There is also a taxi rank in the town centre, although on many occasions it is perfectly easy to enjoy an evening out and simply walk home.
And then there is the countryside.
The location gives you that wonderful town-and-country combination that makes Glossop such an attractive place to live. The Peak District is right on the doorstep, providing endless opportunities for walking, cycling and exploring, while local parks and green spaces give you plenty of options closer to home.
A home that has been loved for 23 years
After more than two decades here, The Elms has clearly been much more than simply a house. It has been the setting for family life, celebrations, parties and countless memories.
What makes it particularly special is the balance it offers: a peaceful home tucked away in a small cul-de-sac, generous gardens and entertaining space, excellent schools and transport links, easy access to Glossop's increasingly vibrant town centre, and the Peak District countryside just beyond it.
For a family looking for space, privacy and a home that can genuinely accommodate the way modern families live, The Elms offers a wonderful opportunity to become the next chapter in its story
