Summary - 138, DALE ROAD, MATLOCK, MATLOCK BATH DE4 3PS
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Five-bed detached Georgian cottage with large garden and detached garage near Matlock Bath.
Grade II listed historic home with parts dating to the 1600s
A handsome Grade II listed family home on Dale Road, Dale Cottage combines pronounced historic character with generous, flexible living space. The pale-blue Georgian façade, double-height entrance hall and south-facing reception rooms create an immediate sense of light and proportion, while the kitchen, breakfast room and courtyard studio give practical day-to-day flexibility for family life or home working.
Set on a large plot with extensive, well-established gardens and off-street parking for 3–4 vehicles, the property includes a substantial two-storey detached garage with reinforced mezzanine — useful for storage, hobby space or conversion (subject to consents). The elevated garden and front aspect look towards the dramatic cliffside at Artist’s Corner; Matlock and Matlock Bath’s amenities and Peak District walks are within easy reach.
Important practical points: the house is Grade II listed, which limits alterations and can add cost and complexity to works. Flood risk is assessed as medium and broadband speeds are slow — factors to consider for future improvements or connectivity needs. Internal layout and some fixtures reflect the property’s age; parts date to the 1600s and some updating may be desired.
Overall, this is a rare, characterful detached home for a buyer who values period charm, generous outside space and a prominent position close to the attractions of Matlock and Matlock Bath. It will particularly suit a family or couple seeking a distinctive property with scope for careful, sympathetic updating within the constraints of listed status.
