4 Bed Detached House For Sale

With breathtaking 180-degree views across the valley, this home was substantially extended, upgraded and 'future-proofed' in 2017. Improvements included a new roof, new one bedroom accommodation, new windows, radiators, underfloor heating and boiler.

Set across three storeys, at street level the kitchen flows through to a large dining area and open plan living area - these all benefit from the huge east-facing windows looking across Cromford Meadows to the hillside opposite. On this floor there is also a double bedroom, family bathroom and internal and external storage cupboards (the external one houses the boiler and has space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer).

Upstairs on the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a WC. Downstairs at ground floor/garden level is the integral one bedroom accommodation which includes a living room/kitchen, bedroom and en-suite shower room.

To the front of the home is a garden, driveway and garage. At the rear, the spacious garden includes lawns, a dining patio, shed and a variety of mature trees.

Cromford village is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is packed with tourist facilities aplenty (the historic mills, canal, pubs, restaurants and shops) and walking and cycling routes head off in all directions. Wirksworth, at the top of the hill, has just been named Sunday Times 'Best place to live in Derbyshire' 2025. Matlock Bath, Matlock, Bakewell and Buxton are all within easy reach, as is the High Peak Trail, Chatsworth House and the many delights of the Peak District.

Sheltered in front of the home is a dining patio. There are lights on the timber fence on the right, lighting the way to the front door.
