Old Oak Close, Crich, Matlock

A pristine family home on a quiet lane, this residence has 3 parking spaces and integral garage, brand new kitchen, landscaped garden with new decking and pergola and is within walking distance of the thriving village centre. With popular schools, a youth club and parks nearby, this is a wonderful family home located close to countryside walks in all directions.

On the ground floor, the entrance hallway leads through to the living room, kitchen-diner, utility room and ground floor WC. There is also access into the integral garage. Stairs lead up to the first floor, with four bedrooms (one en-suite) and the family bathroom. At the front of the home, the current owners have widened the driveway so that three cars can park comfortably. The rear garden has been significantly upgraded, with a new decked seating area with pergola in the top-left corner and new planted borders.

Crich is one of our favourite villages in the whole area - with The Loaf Bakery, Asian cuisine restaurant, great pub, grocers, independent shops, hair and beauty salons and the famous Crich Tramway Museum. For youngsters there is a thriving youth club, great park with football pitch and outdoor gym plus the popular primary school. A daily bus service runs to the nearby secondary schools in Wirksworth and Matlock. Within 5 minutes you can walk to countryside treks in all directions and the hills surrounding the village offer some challenging rides for cyclists. It's a fantastic place to live and from which to explore the local area.
