Cromford Road, Wirksworth

With two double bedrooms, this characterful cottage is a flat five minute walk into the town centre. Much of the furniture can be included, making it an ideal home for first time buyers or perhaps a turnkey holiday let or rental property. Built in 1900, this elegant home is packed with attractive, original features and has an easy-maintenance front and rear garden. Located opposite a play park, with lovely walks in all directions through meadows and up to the High Peak Trail, there is also a free car park a one minute walk away.

On the ground floor, the entrance hallway has doors into the sitting room and dining room and on through to the kitchen. To the first floor is a modern shower room and two spacious double bedrooms. The pretty front garden and rear patio garden are easy to maintain and include a large shed and brick store.

This home is in an extremely popular area of town, just a five minute flat walk into the centre of town. For children, a nursery and the town schools are all within a ten minute walk and there is a popular play and skate park opposite. Adults and children alike will love exploring the walk up Old Lane to the National Stone Centre and on to the High Peak Trail, where off-road trails run for 25+ miles to Buxton and High Peak Junction.

Wirksworth has a thriving arts scene which includes the annual Wirksworth Festival and the independent Northern Light Cinema. Named by The Sunday Times as the best place to live in Derbyshire, Wirksworth also has the Ecclesbourne Valley steam railway, some fantastic pubs (we especially love the Feather Star and Royal Oak) and great independent shops, coffee shops and eateries. The High Peak Trail runs across the northern edge of the town and there are countryside walks in all directions.

Here, you're on the edge of the Peak District with Carsington Water, Cromford, Matlock and Dovedale all within a short drive. Chatsworth House, Bakewell and Buxton are all within easy reach too.
