A beautiful ground floor studio apartment in a surprisingly secluded yet wonderfully central town centre location. A few minutes walk from both the train station and the town centre, it is a perfect location to access all the amenities of town and to explore the Peak District (a 10 minute drive). A snug, well furnished retreat with a large bathroom (shower & bath), fully equipped kitchen with bean-to-cup coffee machine. Strong wifi & secure, gated riverside terrace with table & chairs.
Spaces:
The homeliest of places, with classical yet eclectic décor, this studio apartment in a converted historic mill is a cosy retreat hidden down by the river and yet within a stone’s throw of all the amenities of the town.
Secure, gated terrace, accessed with a coded gate.
There is a spacious living area, with comfortable sofa, chaise longue, coffee table and additional chairs. A sense of ‘shabby chic’ may describe the place well.
Within the main living space, there is an extendable George IV mahogany dining table, that will accommodate up to 6 people around.
The kitchen has all the required amenities: fridge- freezer, kettle, bean-to-cup coffee machine, microwave, cooking utensils, crockery, cutlery and a washer-drier (the latter is available on request).
The main living space is divided from the bedroom with a large bookcase, filled with a library of books, ornaments and plants.
The bedroom itself holds a double bed (brand new mattress!), with two bedside tables and wardrobe, large television with FreeSat and internet access.
The bathroom is spacious with a vigorous shower, bath and heated towel rail.
There is a paved terrace overlooking the river, fringed with greenery and trees, with table and chairs outside the apartment. Beautiful sunshine to be had sitting out when the weather is fine!
Neighbourhood:
The flat is two minutes walk from both the train station and the bus station. The town centre is only a small distance further up the road. In the vicinity are a wide variety of bars and restaurants of all types, as well as take aways. I am happy to provide any information you need or recommendations.
Getting around:
The train station provides a 20-30 minute direct link to Manchester City centre and a 1 hr 45 minute to London Euston direct.
There is on the street parking in two hour bays immediately outside the flat and adjacent streets, which means you could leave the car there from 4pm until 10am the next morning on a normal day or We all day on a Sunday. However if you want to leave the car longer, there are relatively cheap car parks (either Pickford street or Sunderland Street car park) about a minute’s walk away - across the road. If you wanted free and unrestricted parking, you could park up on Brook Street. That is 3 or 4 minutes walk away approx.
Pets:
Pets are usually welcome but please contact me when booking if you are bringing a pet so that I can confirm your pet is suitable for the property. Please note, there is a pet fee of £20 per pet per stay. This can be paid direct after booking. All areas of the flat and terrace are accessible for those using a wheelchair.
