4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

This splendid family home has been renovated throughout to a very high standard. With a new roof, new extension, four double bedrooms (all with new en-suite shower/bathrooms - one is a Jack and Jill), the home has also been fully rewired, re-plastered and features such as the stunning fireplaces, ceiling roses, coving and skirting add fantastic character.

Located on a stretch of Smedley Street with uninterrupted views of the hillside opposite, this home is perfect for a family. There are well-renowned schools nearby, it's a short walk into the town centre (and parks and riverside walks) and the magnificent local countryside is close by too.

On the ground floor is a spacious yet cosy sitting room, the grand Kitchen/Dining Room and a rear porch area with access to the Utility/WC.

On the first floor are two double bedrooms - both with new en-suite shower rooms. On the second floor are two further bedrooms, with doors into a Jack and Jill bathroom.

The rear garden is a blank canvas and the current owners will be leaving stone and bricks reclaimed during the renovation project, which would make nice feature walls and a barbecue in the garden.

Matlock is one of the most famous towns in the area, nestled on the border of the Derbyshire Dales and the Peak District. It has a thriving town centre (a recent report noted it was in the top 5 towns in the UK for increased footfall since the pandemic) and natural attractions aplenty all around. Chatsworth House, Peak Rail, The High Peak Trail and the similarly bustling market towns of Bakewell and Buxton are close by.

A flagstone path leads to three stone steps, up to the front door. You'll love the view every time you leave home! To the left, a path leads to an entrance towards the rear, which has limestone flooring and is the perfect place to kick off muddy boots after a hearty local walk.
