Built within rendered elevations and beneath a tiled roof, this individual double fronted cottage offers the benefits of uPVC double glazing and gas fired central heating. Internally, the accommodation includes an open plan sitting and dining room, fitted kitchen, utility room and WC to the ground floor; at first floor level, two double bedrooms with a spacious bath and shower room. Externally, the house is easily managed with a low maintenance patio garden at the rear and modest forecourt garden at the front.

The cottage stands within locally renowned “Old Matlock”, close to St Giles Church and less than half a mile from Matlock’s town centre shops and facilities. More local amenities are available within Matlock Green, and the town can be accessed on foot, avoiding main roads, by a stroll through the delightful Hall Leys Park. Good road links lead to the neighbouring centres of employment to include Bakewell (8 miles), Alfreton (8 miles) and Chesterfield (10 miles), whilst the cities of Sheffield, Derby and Nottingham all lie within daily commuting distance. The delights of the surrounding Derbyshire Dales and Peak District countryside are on the doorstep.
