2 bed property to rent

West Bank, Winster, Matlock DE4

A refurbished, character two bedroomed stone cottage nestling at the heart of this historic and sought after Peak District village.

This most charming semi-detached period stone cottage has benefited from an extensive programme of renovation within the last fifteen years, the works undertaken sympathetically to retain character features including period fireplaces, York range to the kitchen, ceiling beams and flagstones throughout the ground floor. The ground floor provides open plan living, the kitchen area half partitioned by breakfast bar, and off which there is access to a stone vaulted cellar. At first floor level there are two bedrooms and modern bathroom. Externally, there are low maintenance gardens to the front and rear making it well suited to the busy professionals, or those seeking a letting opportunity.

The cottage is situated with almost level access to the village church, general store and public house, and with good access from the doorstep to explore the surrounding Peak District countryside. Good road communications lead to the larger market towns of Matlock (5 miles), Bakewell (6 miles), Chesterfield (12 miles), Ashbourne (12 miles).
