Both bedrooms feature TV points and central heating radiators. The single bedroom enjoys a rear aspect with fine views over the garden and beyond and has a central heating radiator.

Outside: The property is nestled in a beautifully private location on the edge of this sought after Derbyshire village famous for the Crich Stand Monument, Tramway Museum and for those that can remember the popular TV series – ‘Peak Practice’. The property enjoys spectacular views to all elevations and sits in wonderfully landscaped private mature gardens carefully considered and planted to complement the property and the surrounding location.

The property is approached via a rural driveway onto a granite sett driveway providing an abundance of vehicular hard standing. The approach takes immediate advantage of the far reaching views and surrounding countryside. There are Derbyshire Sandstone and Limestone dry walls which flank the property with heavily stocked mature borders and a selection of established trees planted around. The granite setts also form a fabulous sun terrace which takes in fine views of the garden, surrounding views and the beautiful fishing pond.

When Fishpond House was purchased in 1999 the original pond was non-existent having silted up over the years. 2,500 tons of soil/sand was excavated to create the existing pond which is fed by a natural spring and stocked with Tench, Crucian Carp and Rudd and of course - two timber fishing pegs!
For the equestrian enthusiasts there is separate area of grassy paddock land which we understand extends to approximately 2 acres in size (measurement to be verified). This would provide excellent stabling facilities and room for a ménage if required.

In addition, there is a detached triple garage with a personnel door, three separate electrically operated up-and-over doors, further space for storage and equipped with power and lighting. There is also a separate Workshop/Hobby Room/Office with power, lighting, toilet and wash basin and under floor heating.
