Horseshoe Cottage, Marple Bridge SK6

A Truly Special Home in the Heart of Marple Bridge

Tucked away in a wonderfully private spot right in the centre of Marple Bridge Village, this stone-built home is a rare find. Surrounded by nature and full of character, it offers something genuinely unique for anyone looking to enjoy village life with a peaceful and private twist.

Set over levels, the property is positioned on a plot that’s enveloped around its own beautiful woodland. It’s a magical outdoor space where everyone, from little explorers to grown-ups seeking calm, can enjoy. The garden is well stocked with specimen flowers, shrubs and trees – including some stunning Redwoods!

Inside, the home is spacious with three bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes, and the master also having its own en-suite. There's also a convenient downstairs WC and a separate utility room for added practicality on the ground floor.

And then there’s the barn, one of the oldest buildings in the area. It previously had planning permission (now lapsed) to be converted into an extension of the home or even a separate dwelling. However you choose to use it, it offers an exciting opportunity to create something special – even as extensive storage, it’s a fantastic space!

Clients often ask me for homes that are close to Marple Bridge’s village centre or in the catchment for fantastic local primary schools – this has both! Genuinely, it’s such a beautiful home in a beautifully private setting.
