Description
An exciting opportunity to acquire a pleasant block of amenity woodland offering a variety of mature trees. The woodland sits on the outskirts of a popular town, extending to approx. 8.52 acres, perfect for those with rich environmental or lifestyle interests.
Description
A parcel of woodland situated in a rural yet accessible location, on the outskirts of Darely dale and the Peak District National Park. The woodland extends to approximately 8.52 acres (3.45 hectares), a manageable size, offering a wide variety of established tree species with a grassy understorey. The property is accessible via a right-of-way, with dry stone walled to the perimeter. The woodland offers excellent amenity appeal in a beautiful rural setting, whilst remaining nearby to towns and amenities, suiting a wide range of buyers including neighbouring landowners, amenity purchasers and those seeking a lifestyle interest.
Location
The woodland is rural yet accessible to nearby popular towns including Darley Dale to the south (0.8 miles), Matlock to the southeast (2.9 miles), Bakewell to the northwest (5.5 miles), and Chesterfield to the northeast (9.9 miles) where a wide range of amenities can be found. There are many nearby local walks, bridleways, trails and beauty spots within the surrounding area, excellent for those who enjoy the outdoors, particularly being close-by to the Peak District National Park.
Directions:
The right of way leads off Bent Lane, to the west of the woodland, currently this access track is slightly overgrown. For viewings, interested parties may find the footpath to the north west of the woodland easier. Parking at Back Lane, DE4 5LP, walk south down to lane before turning right to follow the footpath down a track. Follow the footpath round to the left, before eventually meeting the woodland boundary.
