Hillside North Road, Glossop, SK13 7AX

Combining the elegance of a Victorian villa with the space and versatility of a substantial family home, this beautifully presented detached residence occupies one of Glossop’s most sought-after locations, just a short stroll from Howard Park and the historic Victorian Baths.

Generous accommodation extends across four levels, offering an appealing balance of formal reception rooms, relaxed everyday living spaces and private retreats.

The property’s period architecture gives it a distinctive presence, while the superbly appointed interior provides the comfort and practicality required for modern family life.

With five to six bedrooms, multiple reception rooms and extensive leisure space, the layout lends itself equally well to growing families, households with older children and those who regularly welcome guests.

In further detail the property comprises a spacious and welcoming entrance hall with high ceilings, decorative cornicing and intricate embossed wall detailing.

Chequerboard tiled flooring provides a striking contrast to the light décor, while the substantial timber staircase, with turned balusters and a carpet runner, forms an attractive focal point.

Glazed double doors beneath an elegant arched surround connect the hall to the entrance vestibule, creating a fitting introduction to the home’s period character.

Three principal reception rooms provide considerable freedom in how the home is enjoyed, with space for formal entertaining, quieter evenings and separate family activities.

Each has its own character, allowing the rooms to fulfil different purposes while retaining a cohesive feel.

The principal reception room opens to a day room at one end, whilst glazed double doors open to a stunning Orangery.

Substantially refurbished by the current owners, the orangery adds a further dimension to the ground floor and is an attractive setting for entertaining friends or simply unwinding.

Flooded with natural light from extensive glazing to three sides and a striking glazed pitched roof above, the room’s generous proportions comfortably accommodate both dining furniture and a separate relaxed seating area.

The architectural detailing gives the room plenty of character, with exposed dark roof framing contrasting against the predominantly white frame and fitted Venetian blinds.

A distinctive monochrome tiled floor adds further visual interest, while the abundance of windows provides a strong connection with the surrounding gardens and grounds.

An ideal complement to the more traditional reception rooms that gives the house another inviting place to gather.

Together, these spaces allow larger occasions to be accommodated comfortably while offering plenty of choice for everyday use.

The kitchen is situated toward the rear of the property at the far end of the main hallway.

Bespoke cabintery flanks both walls allow plenty of space for movement, whilst the polished granite worktops allow plenty of space for food preparation and smaller appliances.

The bedroom accommodation is arranged over the upper floors, with five bedrooms providing flexibility as household needs change.

The two larger bedrooms to the first floor benefit from their own en-suite shower rooms and the large family bathroom adds a touch of luxury, with its freestanding bath and separate walk-in shower complemented by a wall mounted wash basin and a concealed cistern WC.

The generous provision of bath and shower rooms is particularly valuable for busy family mornings and when accommodating visiting friends or relatives.

A further lounge on the second floor offers an appealing retreat away from the main reception spaces.

A further seating area with pergola sits at the rear of the garage, creating further break out space on those big outdoor occasions.
