Summary - 14 CATCLIFFE COTTAGES BAKEWELL DE45 1FL
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Two-bedroom Victorian cottage with garden, views and holiday-let history — chain free.
Superb far-reaching Peak District views from upper bedroom
A compact, characterful mid-terrace cottage occupying an elevated spot in the heart of Bakewell with far-reaching Peak District views. The house has traditional stonework, a gritstone fireplace with a gas stove and many original features that give it authentic period charm. The accommodation is arranged over three floors and totals about 902 sq ft, with a living room, fitted dining kitchen, two double bedrooms and one bathroom.
Outside there is a manageable front garden with seating terrace, a private rear courtyard and useful outbuildings for storage. The property currently trades as a holiday cottage and would suit a main home, second home or continued holiday-let use. There is the option to rent an allocated parking space in a nearby public car park (subject to availability) rather than an owned space.
Practical points to note: the house is freehold and offered chain-free, but it sits in an older stone shell (pre‑1900) where the walls are assumed uninsulated — the EPC is D. Heating is mains gas via a Worcester Bosch boiler and double glazing is installed, but buyers should allow for possible improvements to thermal performance and modernisation where desired. The three-storey layout means multiple stair flights and may be less suitable for limited mobility.
Overall this is a rare chance to buy a period Bakewell home with immediate access to town amenities, country walks and excellent mobile/broadband connectivity. It will particularly appeal to buyers valuing character, outlook and a low-maintenance garden, but those seeking off-street parking, high energy efficiency or single-level living should be aware of the compromises.
