Built around 2012, of natural stone beneath a slated roof, this attractive detached house provides spacious family accommodation, extending to almost 2,000 sq ft and with the benefit of an adjoining double garage. At ground floor level there is a generous living, dining kitchen, a real hub of the house for modern lifestyles, together with a good sized sitting room, utility and cloakroom, all set around a central reception hall. At first floor level, four double bedrooms and two bathrooms. The surrounding gardens are landscaped for ease of maintenance and include a block paved driveway, similar finish to the full width patio garden which is set within raised shrub borders and a hedged rear boundary.

Tucked away from the main thoroughfare to a cul-de-sac shared with just three other properties and behind the former St Giles Primary school, now an attractive conversion. The property is conveniently situated around half a mile from Matlock’s town centre shops and facilities and in the popular Starkholmes district, which boasts access to countryside, well respected primary and secondary schools close-by, and the beautiful St Giles Church, which stands prominently in ‘old Matlock’. The local public house is also situated next door on Church Street.
