A handsome double-fronted Grade II listed Georgian townhouse dating from 1753, tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac within easy walking distance of Matlock town centre and Hall Leys Park. The house balances period character — high ceilings, exposed beams, oak panelling and feature fireplaces — with family-sized accommodation across three floors.
Six bedrooms (four with en suites) give flexible space for a growing or extended family, guests and home working. Principal reception rooms include a sitting room with log-burning stove, an oak‑panelled dining room, a cosy snug and a spacious breakfast kitchen with a Rangemaster cooker. Practical features include a utility room, storage cellars and an off‑road parking space accessed from the neighbouring driveway.
Outdoor space is low maintenance: a well-stocked front garden and a flagged rear courtyard suit relaxed entertaining and everyday family life. The property sits in a very affluent area with good primary and secondary schools nearby and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Important considerations: the Grade II listing preserves character but will restrict alterations and can make some repairs more costly and time-consuming. Flood risk is assessed as medium for the area. Council Tax is above average, and although the house is well presented it is an older property and will require ongoing maintenance typical of historic buildings.
