4 bedroom detached house for sale

There are walks and cycling trails aplenty, plus Carsington Water, Chatsworth House and the bustling market towns of Matlock, Bakewell, Ashbourne, Buxton and Belper all within easy reach.

Front Of The Home - Skilfully constructed in 2016, but using materials and techniques that make it seem much older, the home is constructed primarily of limestone, with gritstone quoins and a natural slate roof. A low-level dry stone wall forms the boundary, within which there are two off-road parking spaces - a huge bonus on Greenhill. The front garden is primarily laid to gravel, providing several areas where you can position seating and dining tables, to bask in the magnificent views. A wide paved path leads around the front of the property and several raised flower beds add splashes of colour. There is also plenty of space for a barbecue. At the rear (road-side) of the property is a small elevated garden/store area and an outside tap on the side wall too.

Entrance Hallway - Enter the home through the part-glazed panelled front door into the impressive hallway. The limestone-and-granite tiled floor, high ceiling and white decor make this a bright and welcoming space - which is immediately evocative of the quality you're going to experience throughout the home. A contemporary tall ceramic radiator is further evidence of this. There is a useful under-stairs cupboard, two ceiling light fittings and doors to the dining kitchen, sitting room, dining room, utility room and downstairs WC.

In the dining area there is room aplenty for a 4-6 seater dining table, plus a radiator and ceiling light fitting.

Given that there is a formal dining room (if you don't use it as a study or for some other purpose) you could choose to put some nice seating into this area, as a lovely gathering space whilst people are cooking, if you can tear yourself away from looking at the views outside!
