Built in 1900, this impressive family home has five double bedrooms and is a short walk from the town centre, schools, countryside walks and the Arc leisure centre. With a beautiful limestone facade, this four storey home has spacious rooms, a detached garage, original fireplaces, a south-facing walled garden and open-plan kitchen diner. It has a lovely natural feel - the stairs and lots of rooms have exposed floorboards, pine doors and lots of light flooding in through big timber-framed windows.
On the ground floor, the entrance hallway flows through to the sitting room and kitchen-diner (with a door from here down to the cellar). To the first floor is the first of two large bathrooms and two bedrooms. The second floor has a very pretty second bathroom, large walk-in wardrobe and another roomy double bedroom. On the top floor are two more double bedrooms and eaves storage. The front garden has a flower bed including an apple tree, whilst the charming rear garden is a real sun trap. A detached garage is located around the corner.
It's only a short 7 minute walk into the heart of Matlock town centre, which also has a large park, the River Derwent flowing through and a wide range of independent shops, salons, restaurants and bars. The All Saints primary and junior schools are both within a safe 5 minute walk. There are good road connections up into the Peak District with driving, cycling and walking routes aplenty. Matlock train station has direct trains to Derby and beyond.
Front of the home
Standing tall in an impressive row of tall limestone terraced homes is this splendid five bedroom home. The pretty cottage garden has a stone wall boundary to the front and right, with a timber picket fence on the left. The raised rectangular flower bed is packed with a range of verdant green bushes and an apple tree. The timber-framed windows have stone lintels above and stone sills. Enter the home through a timber door with brass handle, letterbox and knocker.
Entrance Hall
Befitting this elegant home, the entrance hall has stripped pine floorboards, a high ceiling with chandelier light fitting and a panelled wall on the right. There is a radiator, skirting boards, ceiling coving and stairs in front leading to the upper floors. Pine doors on the right lead into the sitting room and kitchen-diner.
Sitting Room
3.95 x 3.7 (12'11" x 12'1")We love this classically-styled room. Spacious and light, the room has a high ceiling with ceiling rose around the light fitting and a tall east-facing timber-framed sash window. The focal point is the cast iron log burner and flue set upon a tiled hearth, within a substantial brick chimney with stone lintel. Fitted cabinets each side are painted Oxford Blue and have lots of shelving. The pine floorboards flow in seamlessly from the entrance hallway and this room also has skirting boards, ceiling coving and a radiator.
Kitchen-Diner
4.9 x 2.45 (16'0" x 8'0")Light oak veneer flooring flows from the dining area through to the kitchen. This light and airy room has three windows in the kitchen and a fully-glazed door out to the rear garden. The decorative iron fireplace has an ornate grate, tiled hearth and pretty tiled surround. There is a full-height recessed cabinet on the right and wide alcove on the left - which has space below the fitted shelving for an American-style fridge-freezer. In the centre of the dining room is space for a 6-8 seater dining table, with furniture such as a sideboard on the perimeter. This area also has a radiator, door down to the cellar and an open entrance to the kitchen.
The U-shaped worktop has an integral 1.5 sink and drainer with chrome mixer tap and - opposite - a four ring gas hob with electric oven below. The white subway brick-style tiling enhances the light flooding in through two west-facing windows and a south-facing window. The kitchen includes a wide range of low-level cabinets and drawers including space and plumbing for a dishwasher/washing machine. There is a ceiling light fitting, radiator and beamed ceiling with light fitting.
Cellar
4.85 x 3.8 (15'10" x 12'5")A pine door with iron latch leads down from the kitchen-diner to this very useful dry cellar which - strictly speaking - makes this a five storey home! A door leads through to this large room, which has a concrete floor, two ceiling light fittings and power points. On the left, the current owners have a utility area with appliances - there are several recessed shelves and plenty of space for storage.
Stairs to first floor landing
Back up at ground level, exposed pine stairs lead up from the entrance hallway, curving to the first floor galleried landing. Here, there is a ceiling light fitting and pine doors to Bathroom One and the first two double bedrooms.
