Situated to a quiet cul-de-sac within this well regarded residential area, this modern three bedroom detached home has been improved, well maintained and upgraded throughout. Attention to detail is evident both inside and out, the house being presented with a pleasing quality and modern style. Adaptions have created an open plan dining kitchen, the addition of a conservatory providing valuable extra living space, and the superbly fitted bathroom includes both a bath and separate shower. Externally, there is ample off street parking, garage and delightfully landscaped gardens.

The property is well suited as a home for a growing family, professional couple or perhaps those downsizing; all of whom may appreciate the sought after location, less than one mile from Matlock’s town centre, and being handy for nearby schooling.

The house is set well away from the main thoroughfare, yet well placed to explore the wider recreational attractions of the Derbyshire Dales and Peak District countryside. The local road network provides ready access to the neighbouring towns of Bakewell (8 miles), Chesterfield (9 miles), Alfreton (8 miles), with the cities of Sheffield, Derby and Nottingham all within daily commuting distance.
