Cressbrook

Occupying an enviable position in the picturesque village of Cressbrook, close to Monsal Head and its historic viaduct, this generously proportioned two double bedroom apartment offers a rare opportunity to enjoy life in the heart of the Peak District National Park. Set within the impressive Grade II Listed former Sir Richard Arkwright’s Mill, the property enjoys wonderful views over the River Wye and the dramatic scenery of Monsal Dale.

Dating from 1787, this landmark former cotton mill has been sympathetically converted to retain much of its original character and architectural heritage while providing the comforts of modern living. The apartment itself is bright and spacious throughout, with delightful countryside views.

Cressbrook is a highly regarded conservation village surrounded by some of the Peak District’s finest landscapes, with an extensive network of walking and cycling routes close by. Bakewell, the Chatsworth Estate and numerous sought-after villages are all within easy reach, while the property is also well placed for access to the region’s principal commercial centres.

Ground-floor access opens into a spacious entrance hallway with a large walk-in cupboard housing the hot water cylinder. The impressive dual-aspect living room is filled with natural light from two large picture windows and flows through to the kitchen. The master bedroom is a generous double with fitted wardrobes, while the second is another excellent double with two windows. A newly fitted bathroom completes the accommodation.

Residents enjoy beautifully maintained communal grounds, two parking spaces—one allocated—a secure bike store and communal games room. With level lift access throughout, this distinctive riverside home offers an exceptional setting in one of the Peak District’s most beautiful and historic locations. The property has potential to be used as a holiday let investment, subject to necessary permissions.
