A Former Home to Victorian Grandees That Represents a Unique Investment Opportunity

Set within the historic centre of the handsome market town of Glossop, Easton House is an impressive Georgian property with roots dating back to the 1820s. During its history, the property and its adjoining Coach House has housed respected Victorian grandees and acted as an important landmark within the town. 

Although its imposing character remains, today Easton House stands empty and in need of investment to return the site to its former glory.

Presently, planning permission has been granted to convert Easton House and the Coach House into ten apartments and three townhouses respectively. Further potential exists to amend planning to create two further apartments in the main building or redesign as an over 55's scheme/ nursing home. 

Varied Development Potential 

With a combined footage of approximately 11,000 square feet, there is real scope to convert the site into any one of a variety of lucrative investment projects. The commanding location of Easton House within Glossop makes it the ideal site for a charming boutique hotel, exclusive nursing home, build-to-rent scheme or Airbnb destination. 

If the right buyer were to take advantage of this unique opportunity, there is even potential to rescue this historic site and turn it into an exceptional family home. 

Development Potential

The Town of Glossop

Glossop rests at the base of Derbyshire’s famed Snake Pass within the Peak District, making it a popular base for exploring the region’s stunning walking country, including Black Hill, Kinder Scout and Longdendale Valley.

One of the more poignant discoveries to be made while walking the local area is the wreckage of a U.S. Air Force bomber that crashed near Charlesworth, Glossop in 1948.

The town is just over 13 miles away from the centre of Manchester, so both local residents and visitors are able to take advantage of excellent transport links to live, work and explore the wider area. 

With an excellent selection of local shops, eateries and a local brewery, Glossop boasts everything you’d expect from a modern town or popular tourist destination.
