With vacant possession and no upward chain, this beautiful cottage has been upgraded to a very high standard. The new kitchen includes underfloor heating and there is a new bathroom and new shower room, as well as new carpets and flooring throughout. Situated in one of the most sought-after villages in the area, this home has been a successful holiday let, private rental and family home in recent years.
On the ground floor, a useful entrance lobby leads through to the kitchen-diner, sitting room and shower room. To the first floor are two good-sized double bedrooms and a bathroom. The south-facing courtyard garden is a real sun trap and low maintenance.
The popular village includes a primary school, the renowned Barley Mow public house, village shop, church and village hall, as well as a children's play park and a large sports field with tennis courts, a boules rink and football pitch. There are quiet country lanes in all directions offering pleasant walks and challenging cycle rides through verdant countryside.
The market town of Wirksworth has recently been named by The Sunday Times as the best place to live in Derbyshire and is only 3 miles away. Carsington Water's edge is just one mile from the village, whilst the delights of the Derbyshire Dales, Peak District, Chatsworth House and several bustling market towns are all a short drive away.
