Tiny and unusual stone-built cottage. The Old School House Cottage is thought to be an old lead miner's cottage and to pre-date 1710. It's in a good position in the village of Bonsall, about three miles from Matlock and nine miles from Ashbourne and the Peak District.
It has just one bedroom and access is via a shared path (although there is potential to buy further land and create a new entrance) and the property is either outdated and in need of renovation, or charmingly old-fashioned, depending on your viewpoint.
There's a decent-sized garden and good views, and fabulous original exposed stone walls and flagged floors in the kitchen and living room.
The living room has a wood burning stove and the cottage also has gas fired central heating.
It's not big but with offers invited around £135,000, it would make a charming second home or writer's village hideaway.
