BENNET SAMWAYS are delighted to offer for sale this charming three-bedroom detached cottage, with the added benefit of a beautifully renovated one-bedroom detached annexe. Nestled in the heart of the highly desirable Derbyshire Dales village of Shirley, this delightful home offers flexible accommodation, ideal for multi-generational living or as a holiday let opportunity. The combined gross internal area is approximately 1,600sq.ft. There is planning permission approved in December 2022 for a single storey extension to replace the conservatory. See Derbyshire Dales Planning - Ref: 22/01171/FUL.
A rare opportunity to acquire a characterful home with additional accommodation in one of the area’s most sought-after villages.

Interior – Full of character and warmth, the cottage features a welcoming entrance porch leading into the hall. The fitted kitchen offers ample cabinetry and granite worktops, with appliances including an electric hob, extractor fan, electric double oven, dishwasher, washing machine, and fridge. The dining room is packed with charm, featuring a beamed ceiling and a log-burning stove. The sitting room creates a sociable hub of the home and boasts a feature fireplace. A light-filled conservatory offers lovely views over the garden, and a ground-floor shower room completes the downstairs layout.
Upstairs, off the main landing, the master bedroom enjoys a peaceful rear aspect, complemented by two further bedrooms and a modern fitted shower room.

Annexe Cottage – Recently renovated to a high standard, the separate one-bedroom annexe offers stylish independent living. The ground floor comprises a high-quality contemporary shower room with skylights. The cosy living area includes a kitchenette, while upstairs reveals a stunning vaulted master bedroom with skylights, creating a wonderful sense of space and light.

Exterior – The property is approached via a gated driveway leading to a detached garage, offering ample parking. The pretty, cottage-style gardens are a real feature, providing a tranquil outdoor setting with space to relax and entertain. A lovely paved patio area, ideal for soaking up those summer months, enjoys an excellent view of the garden.

Location – The picturesque village of Shirley is nestled within the rolling countryside of the Derbyshire Dales, offering a tranquil rural setting while remaining highly accessible. Surrounded by open fields and scenic walking routes, Shirley is a quintessential Derbyshire village with a welcoming community spirit. The village is home to a charming parish church, a popular country pub (The Saracen’s Head), and enjoys a rich sense of heritage.
Despite its peaceful surroundings, Shirley is conveniently located just a short drive from the historic market town of Ashbourne, known for its fine Georgian architecture, boutique shops, cafes, and local amenities. The village is also well-positioned for access to the A52, providing links to Derby and the wider region. For those who love the outdoors, the nearby Peak District National Park offers outstanding opportunities for walking, cycling, and exploring some of the most beautiful countryside in England.

Owner's perspective - "We love living in our old cottage within the village of Shirley. The pretty garden is private and not overlooked. We have particularly enjoyed the renovation and letting of the annex and its income. We are sad that the time has come to leave the cottage and the village with its friendly people and community spirit.
We hope that the next owners will enjoy the cottage and life in Shirley as much as we have."
