Pittywood Road, Wirksworth, Matlock

NO UPWARD CHAIN. With fantastic far-reaching panoramic views, driveway, integral garage and modern air-conditioning unit, this dormer bungalow is situated on a large corner plot in this popular neighbourhood. Freshly redecorated throughout, the home also has solar panels and high quality uPVC double glazing.

On the ground floor, the entrance hallway has doors off to the kitchen-diner (and on through to the utility-porch and integral garage), sitting room, two bedrooms and family bathroom. To the first floor is another double bedroom, dressing room and WC. At the front of the home is a large L-shaped lawn with planted borders and a driveway that extends naturally out onto the wide sweeping pavement in front of the home. At the rear is a dining patio and another lawn - it's a blank canvas to create the garden of your dreams.

There is potential (subject to planning) to create an upstairs bathroom/shower room and/or to extend into the garage area.

Pittywood Road is a couple of minutes' walk from open countryside and is also within a 10 minute walk of the town centre. Wirksworth is rightly known as The Gem of the Peak and in 2025 was named by The Sunday Times as the best place to live in Derbyshire. Wirksworth has great schools, a leisure centre, medical centre, the Ecclesbourne Valley steam railway, Northern Light cinema and a wealth of thriving independent retailers, eateries and pubs.

The High Peak Trail traverses the northern edge of the town and Carsington Water, Chatsworth House, the Peak District, Matlock, Bakewell and Buxton are all within a short drive. Buses go direct to Sheffield, Chesterfield, Matlock, Belper and Derby whilst Cromford train station (under a 10 minute drive away) has direct trains to Matlock, Derby, Nottingham, Lincoln and even the seaside at Cleethorpes!

Front Of The Home - Located on a large corner plot on this popular street, a contemporary horizontal timber fence forms a long border around the front garden, with a privet hedge beside the block-paved driveway.

There is space for two vehicles in front of the integral garage. A path on the right-hand side leads to the rear garden.

On the left, the long rectangular lawn has flowerbed borders containing a range of mature plants, trees and shrubs, as well as a large dining patio from where you can enjoy the wonderful views. The garden to the side also has a lawn, well-stocked flowerbeds and gated access to the rear garden.

From the driveway, a path with a handrail on the left leads to the front door. From here, there are great elevated views along the verdant Ecclesbourne Valley, with all-mounted lights to the right of the front door.

Beneath the window is an integral stainless steel sink and drainer with chrome mixer tap. At the far end is a four-ring electric hob.

Opposite is a smaller worktop with space for storage below, or for stools, so it could be used as a breakfast bar. Above are high-level cabinets, including glass-fronted display cabinets. Beyond is space for a fridge freezer, and then an integral double oven with space above for a microwave.

There is plenty of room for a dining table seating four to six people. A door leads to the utility porch.
