Chain-free renovation project in Wirksworth centre with generous rooms and cellar.
Chain free; vacant possession ready for immediate purchase
Substantial three-storey stone house with cellar and high ceilings
Five bedrooms and two reception rooms — spacious room proportions
Sash windows with fitted shutters and original character features
Requires full modernisation; heating and services likely need upgrade
Second-floor layout may require changes to meet building regulations
Small rear yard only; no substantial garden space
Excellent central location, close to shops, railway and Peak District
This substantial stone-built home sits opposite Wirksworth’s lively North End and offers an exceptional blank‑canvas opportunity. With five bedrooms, two reception rooms and a large cellar across three main floors, the house provides generous, high‑ceilinged rooms ready to be restored to their former elegance.
The property is chain free and vacant, so a straightforward purchase for someone planning a renovation or sympathetic refurbishment. Classic features remain — timber-framed sash windows with fitted shutters, original fireplaces and high ceilings — which will reward careful upgrading and could significantly increase value.
Practical points to note: the house requires modernisation throughout and the second-floor layout may need amendment to satisfy current building regulations. Outside space is limited to a small rear yard rather than a garden, and heating currently relies on electric wall units and gas fires, so buyers should budget for full heating and modern services upgrades.
Location is a major asset. Wirksworth is highly regarded locally and nationally, with independent shops, eateries, a heritage railway and good access to the Peak District and nearby towns. For a buyer keen to create a spacious family home or a high-return refurbishment, this property offers clear potential in a desirable market.
