Elevated village home with large garden and sweeping countryside outlook.
About 1,275 sq ft of living space
This detached stone cottage sits in elevated village countryside with long-range scenic views and a large garden — a rare find for families seeking character and outdoor space. The house retains many period features: exposed beams, a wood-burning stove, stone walls and two reception rooms arranged over two floors, giving cosy, flexible living across about 1,275 sq ft.
The ground floor has a generous living room with log burner, a dual-aspect dining room that frames the views, and a modern galley kitchen with Belfast sink and integrated appliances. Upstairs are three roomy bedrooms, a store room off the principal bedroom and a family bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower. Off-street parking, a front patio, rear decking and an outhouse add practical outdoor living and storage.
Practical points to note: the property is built pre-1900 from stone and the walls are assumed uninsulated, reflected in an EPC rating of D. There is a single family bathroom for three bedrooms, and access to the property is steep — a drive-by is recommended to assess suitability. Tenure is freehold and council tax band D.
This cottage suits buyers who value period charm, views and garden space and who are comfortable with a historic property that may benefit from targeted upgrading (insulation, efficiency improvements, cosmetic modernisation). It will particularly appeal to families or purchasers looking for a countryside base within easy reach of Matlock amenities and good local schools.
