This recently renovated 1960s detached house has been transformed into a contemporary, upside-down family home with dramatic open-plan living on the upper floor. The living space opens onto a broad, south-westerly timber decked balcony that captures superb, long-range views across Matlock and the surrounding Derbyshire hills. The modern kitchen, oak flooring and plentiful glazing create a bright, sociable hub ideal for family life and entertaining.
The ground floor provides three double bedrooms, a family bathroom, a modest en-suite and a useful utility room, with external access at both front and rear. Mature, well-stocked gardens sit below the house; they are private and offer space for family recreation and gardening. Vehicular access is from Woolley Road with space to park two cars, turning area and a single garage with power and light.
Practical points are honest and straightforward: the property sits on a hillside so pedestrian access from Smedley Street is by steps and a bridged walkway; vehicular access runs over a neighbouring drive by right of way. The en-suite is modest in size and the garage adjoins the neighbour’s garage. The EPC is currently 73 (C) with potential to improve.
Located about half a mile from Matlock town centre, the house sits well for local schools rated Good and for commuting to Bakewell, Chesterfield and the cities beyond. It will suit families seeking a modern, low-maintenance home with excellent views and immediate move-in condition, but buyers should be comfortable with the stepped access and the shared vehicular approach.
