Summary - RUTLAND COURT FLAT 6 RUTLAND STREET MATLOCK DE4 3GN
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Spacious period flat with commanding valley views and allocated parking.
Light, airy two-bedroom apartment with high ceilings and large windows
Set on the second floor of a handsome Victorian former Hydro, this light, airy two-bedroom apartment delivers generous rooms, high ceilings and far-reaching views across Matlock to Riber Castle and the Heights of Abraham. The layout includes a large sitting room, separate dining room, kitchen, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom — a spacious feel uncommon in modern flats.
Practical positives include an allocated off-street parking space, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband potential. The long lease (about 149 years remaining) gives security for buyers, while the apartment’s elevated position provides attractive valley views and daylight.
Notable costs and considerations are the leasehold status with an annual service charge of £2,564.40 and ground rent of £240. There is evidence the building’s stone walls are uninsulated (typical of its age) which may mean higher heating bills or retrofit costs. The property was constructed before 1900 and, while characterful, may require ongoing maintenance typical of older buildings. The local area scores higher on crime and is classified as ageing urban communities, so buyers should check suitability for their needs.
This home will appeal to first-time buyers or downsizers seeking roomy period accommodation with strong views and convenient town access. It also offers scope for cosmetic upgrading to personalise interiors and improve energy efficiency.
