This high calibre apartment forms part of the Rockside Hydro development, the landmark buildings being Grade II Listed, noting their historic importance for the town. Converted to modern standards in circa the year 2000, the apartment, named Lady Barnett, has seen more recent updating and refurbishment complementing the existing style and character. Attention to detail through the conversion is evident throughout; the internal finish includes retention of a period fireplace and inclusion of parquet flooring to the hall, living room, kitchen and bedrooms. The apartment provides two double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a generously proportioned open plan living, dining, kitchen, all of which benefit from excellent natural light through the distinctive turret windows which also command truly stunning views across the town and surrounding hills. The common areas similarly hold an elegant character with feature stone walls, stone staircase and ironwork. There is the function of lift access to all floors together with allocated and visitor parking.
The apartment stands around half a mile from Matlock's town centre and provides an excellent base for exploring the delights of the surrounding Derbyshire Dales and Peak District countryside. Good road communications lead to the surrounding market towns of Bakewell, Chesterfield and Alfreton, with the cities of Sheffield, Derby and Nottingham each within daily commuting distance.
