Set on a gated plot of approximately 0.35 acres, this stone-built 4-bedroom detached cottage blends period character with sympathetic modernisation. Exposed beams, stonework and two cosy reception rooms with log burners anchor the home’s traditional feel, while a solid wood island kitchen with granite worktops and integrated appliances provides a practical, high-quality hub for family life.
The layout is flexible: four reception rooms create clear workspace options for home-working and formal living, while the first-floor master benefits from an en‑suite with a roll-top bath. Outside, the private garden enjoys countryside views and includes a summer house fitted with a hot tub, sauna and shower area — ideal for leisure — plus a detached double garage and extensive hardstanding for multiple vehicles.
Practical considerations are straightforward and important to note. The property has double glazing installed before 2002 and an EPC rating of D; the sandstone walls are as-built with no assumed insulation, so heating costs and further insulation work should be factored in. Council tax sits in band F (expensive). Broadband speeds are average despite excellent mobile signal.
Overall this is a spacious, characterful family home in a peaceful Derbyshire village setting close to Matlock and Chesterfield. It will suit buyers seeking countryside privacy, generous parking and flexible living space, while those sensitive to running costs or wanting the highest energy performance should allow for potential improvement works.
