Description

This one-bedroom semi-detached cottage presents a compelling renovation project with significant investment potential, set within approximately 1.28 acres of land. The property includes landscaped gardens, a stone-built outbuilding, and adjoining paddocks and woodland, providing ample opportunity for development or personal customization. Nestled on the outskirts of Bolehill, this property enjoys a rural atmosphere while maintaining easy access to several nearby villages and towns. Matlock is just 4.2 miles to the north, with Belper, Ashbourne, and Bakewell also within a short drive. Its proximity to the Peak District National Park makes it ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, offering an abundance of walks and scenic spots right at your doorstep. The cottage features traditional stone construction and characterful details throughout its two-level design. The ground floor comprises a cozy sitting room, a rear porch area, and a kitchen that provides potential for modern updates. On the upper level, you'll find a spacious double bedroom along with a separate bathroom. While the interior requires renovation to realize its full potential, recent upgrades including new windows and doors have laid the groundwork for further enhancements tailored to individual tastes. Previously approved planning permission for an extension adds another layer of appeal for those looking to expand their living space (subject to reapplication). Externally, the property boasts generous outdoor areas perfect for gardening or leisure pursuits, alongside ample driveway space accommodating multiple vehicles. The former piggery offers additional utility; although it needs repairs, it can function as storage or workshop space given proper restoration. The surrounding land is suitable for livestock grazing or equestrian use and benefits from accessible road access. The gentle slope down toward the road provides stunning views across the Derbyshire countryside while being bordered by traditional dry stone walls and mature hedgerows. Overall, this property not only invites personal vision through renovation but also stands as an excellent investment opportunity in an attractive rural setting with valuable land assets.
