Summary - 7, THE HILL DE4 3RF
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Rare mixed-use lot with barn consent for a holiday cottage — auction sale, ideal for investors.
Grade II Listed mixed-use building in central Cromford
A rare Grade II Listed mixed-use block in the heart of historic Cromford, 7 The Hill combines a ground-floor retail unit with two recently refurbished one‑bed apartments and a stone-built former bakehouse with planning consent to convert into a holiday cottage. The apartments have modern fittings while retaining character features, creating immediate income potential. The retail unit is flexible in use or could be converted to residential subject to consents.
Externally there is a sizeable rear courtyard, a smaller stone outbuilding and a pleasant lawned garden accessed by a shared track and right of way. The bakehouse (31.17m2) is structurally sound with exposed timbers and velux windows and already benefits from planning consent for holiday accommodation, which meaningfully increases the asset’s income and occupancy options.
Important practical points: the property is Grade II Listed so alterations will need Listed Building consent and may be more costly or restricted. The flats are EPC rated E. The sale will be by auction with a 10% deposit on the fall of the hammer and buyer’s fees apply — purchasers must be prepared for immediate legal and financial commitment. Broadband is not currently connected on the premises, although fast local speeds are recorded; mobile signal and transport links are good.
This is primarily an investor opportunity or a small-scale operator seeking a village-base holiday let and rental income from refurbished flats, with added potential from bringing the retail unit into a new use. Viewing is recommended to judge the layout and the conversion potential in person.
