"Standing within mature grounds which adjoin the prestigious Audley St Elphin s Park residential village, Grove Cottage presents varied opportunities as a family home with larger than average gardens. The cottage has not been occupied for a number of years and required cosmetic improvement will present a comfortable home of great character. There is an attractive range of cottage style accommodation which includes three good bedrooms, two reception rooms, fitted kitchen, utility room and separate study. Previous updating has combined character features with modern additions but now in need of attention.

A generous garden plot includes mature shrubs and trees which provide a degree of interest and privacy. There is ample space and scope for further landscaping, creation of parking or perhaps erection of garaging subject to the necessary planning consents.

Sitting alongside Dale Road South, Matlock s main trunk road, the property is well placed for road travel in and around the area. There is respected primary schooling close by and principally level access to a wide range of local shops and amenities with Two Dales and Darley Dale. Matlock s town centre facilities are less than two miles away, whilst other surrounding centres of employment include Bakewell 6 miles , Chesterfield 10 miles , Alfreton 9 miles . The recreational delights of the surrounding Derbyshire Dales and Peak District countryside are close at hand.
