About this property

This gorgeous three-storey Grade II listed property is located in the pretty village centre of Cromford, steeped in history and offering plenty of amenities. Sympathetically restored and lovingly cared for, the cottage blends modern comforts with a real sense of history – note the fascinating wording adorning the staircase! The cottage is within 0.25 mile of pubs, restaurants, shops and cafes. There is a fabulous bookshop just around the corner and a beautiful mill pond where you can often see swans and ducks. Venture down to Cromford Mills, just half a mile away, and discover some great shops or take a stroll by the canal for a nice flat walk. Close to High Peak Trail and Black Rocks, venture out on foot and enjoy the adventurous and extremely picturesque walks right from your doorstep, or head just one mile away to Matlock Bath, where you can enjoy ice cream parlours, fish and chip shops, cable cars and more!
