The property would ideally suit the single occupant, professional couple or those looking for a second home or letting opportunity. A closer inspection is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the cottage and its location.
Matlock Bath is a sought after village, which grew as a spa resort through its Victorian heyday. The village remains a popular destination for day trippers, the valley floor boasting a wide range of shops and other attractions, alongside the picturesque river Derwent. On the valley side, where the property nestles, the village is quiet and equally pretty with access to countryside from the doorstep. Good road communications lead to the neighbouring market towns of Matlock, Bakewell and Chesterfield, with the cities of Sheffield Derby and Nottingham all within daily commuting distance. A pay train station links the village to the national rail network.
