Property For Sale Mount Zion, The Green, Middleton, Wirksworth, Matlock, Derbyshire DE4 4LW

Property For Sale Mount Zion, The Green, Middleton, Wirksworth, Matlock, Derbyshire DE4 4LW


Guide Price £425,000

Mount Zion, The Green, Middleton, Wirksworth, Matlock, Derbyshire DE4 4LW


If you're looking for a home with wow factor, look no further.  An incredibly stylish, beautifully and lovingly converted Chapel originally built in 1904.  The space is substantial and versatile. With underfloor heating throughout, this light, bright home has everything any family could need.

The huge old chapel front door opens into a very useful inner lobby area with plenty of storage space.  A wide opening leads to a stylish space which is multifunctional with a black limestone floor covering.  The whole house incorporates limestone or solid wood flooring with a wet underfloor heating system.   Steps lead down into the enormous open plan living area with cream limestone flooring throughout.   The space is substantial but is very cleverly divided which makes it surprisingly cosy.  There is a lovely sitting area and wood burning stove, leading into the kitchen and dining area with doors directly off into the courtyard.

Middleton by Wirksworth (so called to distinguish it from another Middleton near to Youlgrave) is perched high on a hillside above Wirksworth and Cromford.

Founded in Saxon times as a farming hamlet around an unusually high spring, the village developed in the 17th and 18th centuries as a lead-mining centre (like nearby Wirksworth) and a few of the older buildings in the upper part of the village date from this period. 

The arrival in 1825 of the Cromford and High Peak Railway, which passes just below the village, brought rapid change. Middleton sits on some of the purest limestone in Europe, and the ability to transport this stone meant that large quarries developed all around the village and higgledy-piggledy groups of quarrymens' cottages spread across the hillside. Among other things, Middleton stone is noted for being used for WWI war gravestones.

The quarries around the village closed in the late 20th century and Middleton is now more of a commuter village with some light industry centred around the former quarries.

The village is spread out around a long main street with several narrow sections where it passes between old buildings. There are two pubs and a post office, plus a nice Victorian church and several Non-Conformist chapels, only one of which is still active. 

DH Lawrence spent a year here living in a cottage on the road down to the Via Gellia to the north of Middleton.

Situated in this historic and sought after location, the accommodation is arranged over three floors and comprises of; Living Room, Dining Kitchen, three bedrooms and a stunning family bathroom.

STAMP DUTY SAVING OF £1250

Historic Cromford. 

The Arkwright Society is an educational charity devoted to the rescue of industrial heritage buildings and helping to preserve the precious built and natural landscape in and around Cromford.
It was formed in 1972, growing out of the Arkwright Festival Committee which ran a local celebration. This commemorated the bicentenary of Sir Richard Arkwright’s first Cromford Mill and the construction of the world’s first successful water powered cotton spinning mill in 1771.
From the beginning, the Society has been engaged in the practical conservation of industrial monuments (notably in Lumsdale, Ashford, Cromford and Slinter Wood), in publishing, and educational activities. It has also helped countless numbers of people access training and work, and transformed Cromford Mill from a derelict site doomed to demolition to one of World Heritage Status, employing over 100 staff in numerous small businesses. The Society has adopted its own green code and is actively involved in recycling waste materials.
The Arkwright Society purchased the mill site in 1979 as an act of rescue and in the early 1980s began to implement its long-term economic plan. The strategy identified the buildings that were not required for the Society’s own uses and so could be repaired and leased to tenants. The aim was to create a rental income to cross subsidise the Society’s overheads and the costs of delivering services to the general public visiting the site.
In the early 1990s the Society developed further income streams from a restaurant and shops run by its trading arm, Cromford Mill Limited. With more than £5 million raised and spent, many of the buildings have been brought back into economic use and the site now has two restaurants, several meeting rooms, office accommodation for rental, a gallery and several shops.
The Arkwright Society is a registered charity No 515526. It is also an amenity society registered with the Civic Trust.
The development and growth of the Society would not have been possible without the active support and funding of severalorganisations.

New Property For Sale £375,000 The Old Chaple, Upper Town, Birchover DE4 2BJ

The Old Chaple, Upper Town, Birchover DE4 2BJ 


The Old Chapel is found in a picturesque location in the heart of Birchover, a pretty and popular Peak District village.  The village boasts two well used inns (The Druids Inn and The Red Lion). The Old Chapel was originally constructed in 1867 and extended in 1925 from locally quarried gritstone, and following deconsecration, was sympathetically converted into two almost equal sized cottages 20 years ago.  Since then, the cottages have undergone further, considerable refurbishment.  Nine Ladies and Andlestone Cottages comprise four bathrooms and two kitchens  all of which were completely replaced  during January 2013. Each cottage is currently entirely independent; however, there is the potential for a connecting door at first floor level (subject to building and planning regulations).
