High Street, Bonsall, Matlock

This wonderful family home is overflowing with attractive features. Occupying a large elevated plot overlooking the village and open countryside, the home has driveway parking for 3+ vehicles, spacious living rooms, three en-suite double bedrooms and a magnificent tiered garden with dining patio, decked platforms, space for a hot tub, a lawn and huge garden room.

On the ground floor, the entrance hallway leads through to a triple aspect sitting room, kitchen-living-dining area, utility room and WC. To the first floor are three double en-suite bedrooms and stairs up to the versatile attic room, which is currently a combined home office and guest room. The rear garden is south facing and is a wonderful space in which to gather with friends and family.

Bordering the Peak District National Park, Bonsall is a charming village which was historically a thriving lead-mining location. Nowadays, villagers and visitors alike explore the Limestone Way path and network of walks in all directions then refuel at The Fountain Tea Rooms (including village shop), Barley Mow and Kings Head pubs. The village field includes a playground and football pitch - and there is a beautiful church just behind the home as well as picturesque steep dales, woods and cliffs all around. Famously, the annual World Championship Hen Race takes place at the Barley Mow pub every August!
