Set within a striking Grade II listed Sir Richard Arkwright mill conversion, this two-double-bedroom apartment blends industrial character with a contemporary interior and generous living space (approx. 927 sq ft). South-facing living room and kitchen take full advantage of panoramic views over Monsal Dale and the Monsal Trail, while two allocated parking spaces (one undercroft) and lift access add everyday convenience. Communal grounds are attractively landscaped and include a bowling green and games room. Vacant possession makes immediate occupation or holiday-let use possible.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with around 101 years remaining, a service charge (average £1,630), and a small ground rent (£50). Listed status preserves historic features but will restrict external and certain internal alterations; planning and listed-building consents will be required for many changes. The building uses electric storage heating rather than gas central heating and there is no mobile signal on site, which may affect some buyers.
There is clear income potential for short-term holiday lets given the setting in the Peak District and proximity to Monsal Trail, but prospective investors should factor in holiday-let running costs, management and any planning restrictions. High flood risk is recorded for the area — buyers should obtain flood-insurance quotes and seek professional advice before exchange. Overall this apartment will suit someone seeking a distinctive countryside home or a holiday/investment property who accepts the responsibilities of living in a listed building.
