The A6 and Whatstandwell train station are both within 0.2 miles, so it's a splendid position for commuting and exploring the local area. Crich Carr primary school is directly opposite and Cromford Canal, the Family Tree restaurant and countryside walks off Robin Hood Road are all just around the corner.

The home is accessed through an alley and the garden, with spectacular south facing views opening up in front of you. On the ground floor is a sitting room and kitchen. To the first floor is a roomy landing with space for a desk or wardrobes, two double bedrooms and a bathroom.

Whatstandwell is a hillside village set in rolling countryside beside the River Derwent. The village has a rail station with regular direct trains to Derby, Nottingham (and on to Lincoln and Cleethorpes on the coast!) and Matlock and the A6 offers commuters a similar route by car and bus, with direct buses to Derby, Bakewell and Buxton. There are great walks aplenty in all directions and refreshment stop-offs at the nearby Family Tree, as well as lots of pubs and cafes in the nearby villages and towns of Crich, Matlock and Cromford. The High Peak Trail, Cromford Canal and Matlock Bath are all within a 5 minute drive, with the market towns of Matlock, Bakewell, Belper and Ashbourne all within easy reach.
