This stunning, stone built, four double bedroom detached property is nestled in the quaint village of Nether Heage, located just outside the market town of Belper, a beautiful town that was awarded ‘High Street Of The Year 2020’.

As what can only be described as the perfect chocolate box cottage, this delightfully restored home, with original crooked beam construction, sits in a third of an acre of glorious grounds with excellent views. Once a tired two-bedroom cottage, it has been creatively converted into an attractive four-bedroom home. ‘The cottage is in a quiet but not isolated position, the room sizes are generous, and it has a lovely homely feel to it. The garden is versatile with three patios, a lawned area and a pond with a stream. It’s surrounded by beautiful open views on all sides; the view across to Heage windmill – the only working six-sailed windmill in the country – is a joy to behold. We have enjoyed the peace and quiet of the area but have also benefited from easy access to a multitude of local towns and attractions, such as The National Tramway Museum at Crich, Matlock Bath, Chatsworth House and the Derbyshire Dales. It’s not often that a property has the perfect location but this one definitely does!’

‘We sit in relative seclusion, with pleasant and helpful neighbours on hand up and down the lane. Nether Heage boasts a pub, primary school, village hall and church and there’s a good local bus service. Nearby Belper, with its award-winning high street, has an abundance of quality shops, pubs and restaurants. We’re only 20-minutes away from Derby with its train service to London St Pancras, and other major cities. As you can imagine, there are beautiful Derbyshire walks right on the door-step.‘

‘The lounge is our favourite room as it has a double-aspect viewing the windmill on one elevation and the garden on the other. Coming home during the winter to a real log fire is a delight.’

‘We’ve had many memorable parties and family gatherings throughout almost 15-years living here and used the cottage on the day of our wedding; a joyful hive of activity it provided the perfect setting for photographs.’

‘We are only leaving this beautiful cottage because of a job relocation and we will miss everything about this wonderful home. We genuinely hope that the new owners will enjoy living here as much as we have.’*
