With no upward chain and vacant possession, this home occupies a large corner plot and has panoramic views of Riber Castle and the surrounding countryside. Offering a great opportunity to upgrade and modernise the home to add value, this family home has spacious rooms throughout and is situated in a great location, close to schools and countryside walks.

On the ground floor, the entrance hallway leads past a useful WC to the sitting room, dining room, kitchen and large store room which has the potential to be a utility room.

On the first floor are four bedrooms and the family bathroom.

The front garden is laid to lawn and the south-facing rear garden has an extensive dining patio, easy-maintenance astroturf garden and large shed. There is space for 2-3 vehicles to park on the tarmac driveway in front of the garage.

This elevated area of Matlock is within a five minute drive of the thriving town centre and close to the A632 leading up through Ashover parish to Chesterfield. It's a wonderful, peaceful location and perfect for those who love quick access to the countryside.

An open entrance leads through to the rear garden. The lawn at the front runs round the left-hand side of the home and a central path leads directly to the front door.

Like most rooms in the house, this hallway has skirting boards and ceiling coving.

The worktop has several useful pan drawers below and cabinets above. On the right is a large L-shaped worktop with contemporary 1.5 sink and drainer with chrome mixer tap.

Rear Garden - We love this neat and sunny south-facing garden. The wide dining patio is perfectly positioned beside the kitchen and looking directly at the astroturf garden...so you can keep a close eye on children playing whilst enjoying the views up to Riber Castle directly above the garden fence. There are raised gravel borders and a modern timber fence forms the garden boundary. On the right is a large timber shed with lighting. There is an outside tap and outside light in this easy-maintenance rear garden.
