HALL VIEW, Snitterton

A superbly appointed and characterful, detached stone-built family home, parts of which date back to 1645, together with later extensions creating a delightfully spacious property. Set in approximately an acre of gardens – with ample off-road parking and a garage – the accommodation offers: four double bedrooms, two with en suite shower rooms; family bathroom; spacious farmhouse-style dining kitchen; sitting room; dining room; and garden room. To the rear of the garage is a laundry room and toilet. 

Set in the delightful and historic hamlet of Snitterton – with views towards the Elizabethan Snitterton Hall – the property is surrounded by open countryside, yet within easy reach of amenities and the town centre of Matlock. This peaceful enclave offers a quintessential English country lifestyle, characterized by rolling meadows, ancient dry-stone walls, and a timeless atmosphere that feels far removed from the pace of modern life.

While Snitterton enjoys a secluded rural setting, it remains highly accessible to local hubs and transport networks. The hamlet is located just 1 mile from the amenities of Matlock and is within easy reach of the historic market towns of Bakewell (7.5 miles) and Chesterfield (12 miles). Excellent road links via the A6 provide a direct route to the A38 and M1 motorway, while the nearby rail station at Matlock offers a regular branch line service to Derby and Nottingham. For outdoor enthusiasts, the hamlet provides immediate access to a network of public footpaths leading into the heart of the Peak District, making it a premier location for those seeking heritage and natural beauty in equal measure.
