"It is rare for a property enjoying such a prime location to come onto the market, and it is situated in a just off central position, next to the Town Hall and a stone's throw from the Market Place. The entire property has recently been renovated and modernised to the high standard associated with Mr Ian Bowyer, a local builder and as such early viewing is strongly advised.


There is evidence of a previously injected chemical damp proof course. The property has been re-wired and replumbed with a new central heating system, a newly fitted kitchen and bathroom, whilst still retaining its considerable charm and appeal.
Wirksworth is a small, totally unspoilt market town lying approximately five miles south of the Peak District National Park and close to Carsington Water with its associated sporting activities and also to the High Peak Trail.
The shop offer opportunities for various outlets with a good assortment of day to day activities from which to choose, whilst there is the added attraction of a superb apartment, arranged on the first and second floors of this interesting building which probably dates back to the mid 18th century.
The modernisation programme has been comprehensive and the property can therefore be occupied forthwith, no further expense being envisaged.
It is arranged as follows:-
