This beautiful Grade II Listed home has enormous potential. With no upward chain, the substantial three storey home has an elegant facade and spacious rooms throughout. Requiring modernisation, this is a splendid opportunity to upgrade, add value and create your dream home. Packed with character features, the home is located in the heart of Wirksworth, which has just been named by The Sunday Times as 'the best place to live in Derbyshire'.
On the ground floor, the entrance hallway leads to two reception rooms, a kitchen and utility room. A door from the utility room leads down to the cellar. On the first floor are three bedrooms and a shower room. To the second floor are two further bedrooms, a bathroom and shower room. Please note, the layout on the second floor landing may require amendment to comply with current building regulations.
The home has a useful small rear yard with room for outdoor seating.
Wirksworth is rightly known as The Gem of the Peak and includes a wealth of thriving independent retailers, eateries and pubs. This home is situated right in the town centre - opposite is North End where you will find The Northern Light Cinema, Royal Oak pub and independent shops. A two minute walk to the right brings you to the Ecclesbourne Valley heritage steam railway. The High Peak Trail traverses the northern edge of the town and Carsington Water, Chatsworth House, the Peak District, Matlock, Bakewell and Buxton are all within a short drive.
