Holme Close, Holloway

We adore this spacious family home, which is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and has elevated far-reaching views beyond the village to Bow Wood. Constructed in 1990, this home has a pretty rear garden, integral double garage, driveway parking for 2-3 vehicles and spacious rooms throughout.

On the ground floor, the lovely entrance hallway has doors through to the dining room (and on through to the sitting room and conservatory), the large kitchen, a study and ground floor WC. To the first floor are three double bedrooms (one en-suite), a fourth bedroom and family bathroom.

At the front, there is space for 2-3 vehicles to park on the driveway in front of the double garage. A wide and long dining patio on the right provides access to the rear garden, which is well-stocked with colourful plants and has a well-maintained lawn and summer house.

Holloway is a historic village with John Smedley's mill reputedly being the longest-running operational factory in the world, since 1784. The village has a community shop, church, primary school, renowned local butcher's Robin Maycock and the Chase cafe, popular with walkers and cyclists. The Jug & Glass pub is well-renowned and serves fantastic meals, whilst access onto the start of the High Peak Trail (which runs 20+ miles off-road up to Buxton, offering great walking and cycling) starts at High Peak Junction, just 0.7 miles away.

Matlock and Matlock Bath are only 4 miles away, whilst the market towns of Belper and Bakewell, plus Chatsworth House and the delights of the Peak District are all only a short drive away.

Accessed via paths on both sides of the home and from the conservatory, the wide path beside the kitchen has plenty of room for seating and a dining patio set. There is also room beside the conservatory to sit or dine. In the top corner is a wooden summer house, with a tall yew tree bush forming the left-hand border.

This is a pretty and fragrant sanctuary at the back of this lovely home, with plenty of space for children to play too.
