A rare opportunity to acquire a pair of historic cottages in a delightful semi-rural environment of considerable popularity yet within easy access of Belper, Wirksworth and further afield.
The cottages are attached St. Faith's Church and have recently undergone a scheme of renovation which is incomplete although several major items of work have been achieved. In particular the cottages have been re-roofed, with triple glazed Velux units, and a DPC and timber treatment programme has been carried out and is under warranty.
There is provision for vehicular access, and the cottages will enjoy their own gardens to the front (south side).
The accommodation within each, although they are presently inter-linked at both ground and first floor level, thus creating the possibility of a single dwelling, will, when fitted out comprise.
