Set in the heart of a picture-postcard Peak District village, this two-bedroom terraced home blends period charm with modern comfort. The living room features a stone fireplace and multi-fuel stove; the kitchen/dining area has integrated appliances and patio doors opening to a private courtyard garden.
Sold freehold and with no upward chain, the cottage suits a main residence, second home or rental. The property is brimming with character: coursed stone elevations, sash-style windows and a slate roof evoke traditional appeal, while double glazing and an EPC rated C confirm reasonable energy performance.
Notable considerations are a modest internal footprint (approx. 641 sq ft), small rear garden and likely limited on-street parking. The house was built before 1900 with traditional stone walls that may lack modern cavity insulation; buyers should consider potential improvement works for comfort and efficiency. There is a medium flood risk for the area — appropriate insurance and local advice are recommended.
For buyers drawn to village life and outdoor pursuits, this cottage offers immediate occupancy and good rental potential near Bakewell and Chatsworth. Its central village location, easy access to amenities and direct routes into the national park deliver strong lifestyle appeal alongside pragmatic renovation opportunities.
