House For Sale £200,000
Enjoying a favoured village location, the cottage is Grade II Listed, built of natural stone, beneath rendered elevations and has been sympathetically upgraded through recent years. Original character features are evident throughout, including fireplaces, period joinery, quarry tiles and oak floors plus arched multi-paned windows authentically replaced to the front. The generously proportioned accommodation spans 3 floors and is complemented by attractive good-sized gardens lying to the rear and a modest stone outbuilding.
The cottage stands at the heart of Cromford, an historic village and part of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site as a former Arkwright workers cottage. It is well suited to first time buyers, those seeking a second home or letting opportunity, each of whom may appreciate the convenient location and access to the surround Derbyshire Dales countryside. The village offers a wide range of local shops, cafes and bars and the benefit of a train station just outside the village centre. Good road communications lead to the neighbouring market towns of Matlock (3 miles), Wirksworth (2 miles), Belper (7 miles), Bakewell (11 miles).
