House For Sale £229,995
Grant's of Derbyshire are delighted to offer For Sale this three bedroom end terraced cottage located in the sought after village of Middleton by Wirksworth in the Derbyshire Dales. The property underwent a complete, back to stone, renovation around ten years ago creating a new open plan layout downstairs, converting the attic and changing the stairs and room positioning. Also included in the programme of improvements was a full rewire, replaster, new flooring, hardwood double glazing, new plumbing and drains. The accommodation itself briefly comprises open plan living on the ground floor, two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor and a further bedroom in the attic space. Occupying a larger than average plot means that there are gardens to front, side and rear. With the benefit of no upward chain, we highly recommend viewing this one!
