Set on Buxton High Street, this compact mid-terrace cottage offers period character and a highly convenient central location. The house has two bedrooms, a vaulted lower-ground cellar, and double-glazed windows; it is sold freehold with vacant possession and no chain, making it straightforward to move into or let out quickly.
The interior is habitable but shows signs of age: exposed beams, a stone fireplace, and a rustic kitchen that would benefit from cosmetic updating. Heating is by electric night storage heaters and the walls are likely uninsulated (original sandstone/limestone), so energy costs and comfort may improve with insulation, heating upgrades or a full modernisation.
Externally the property sits directly onto the pavement with no front garden and a mossy slate/stone roof that requires attention. The town-centre setting delivers excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and immediate access to shops, cafés and schools, but the location records a higher local crime rate and provides only street-facing views.
This house will suit first-time buyers wanting a central, characterful starter home or investors seeking a compact buy-to-let after minor renovation. Expect limited outside space and some maintenance/upgrade work to maximise comfort and value.
