Standing in an enviable position behind electric gates, Passaford House occupies a plot that extends to approximately half an acre, providing private grounds that incorporate extensive south-west facing gardens. Requiring some internal modernisation, this substantial family home presents scope for a purchaser to tailor the accommodation to their exact requirements. There is also planning permission granted to considerably extend the property to front, side and rear, allowing reconfiguration of the main living areas and bedrooms. Furthermore, the proposed plans include a basement conversion to create a leisure suite and the addition of a garage block.
Well-established gardens and an extensive York stone seating terrace allow plenty of space to relax outdoors and a gravelled driveway accommodates parking for several vehicles.
Passaford House is located in close proximity to the amenities of Dore, which include shops, cafes, public houses and restaurants. Nearby there is also excellent state and private schooling, sports centres and golf clubs. Dore and Totley train station is walkable, providing rail journeys to Sheffield, popular Peak District locations and Manchester. Sheffield city centre and the Peak District National Park are reachable within a short drive.
