About this property

This exquisite Grade II listed former Weavers Cottage occupies a coveted position within the highly sought-after Blanch Croft, in the heart of Melbourne. Renowned locally for their historical significance and enduring appeal, these distinctive cottages are celebrated for their architectural heritage and quintessential English character.

Perfectly positioned just a stone’s throw from Melbourne’s charming yet vibrant village centre, the property enjoys immediate access to one of South Derbyshire’s most desirable and characterful locations. Melbourne is celebrated for its beautiful period architecture, thriving community atmosphere, and an exceptional array of independent amenities including boutique shops, traditional butchers and bakers, a delicatessen, pharmacy, artisan coffee houses, and an excellent selection of bespoke restaurants and stylish bars. The surrounding area also offers an abundance of picturesque countryside walks quite literally on the doorstep, making this an enviable lifestyle setting.

To the front elevation, the cottages display an attractive fusion of traditional red brick and Breedon stone façades, creating an immediately distinguished and timeless aesthetic. Deceptively spacious in design, the cottages are notably larger than their charming exteriors first suggest, unfolding gracefully across three beautifully arranged storeys. From the rear elevation, the picturesque row of elegant three-storey cottages presents an enchanting, almost storybook appearance, further enhancing their unique appeal.

Impeccably maintained throughout, the property effortlessly combines period elegance with modern comfort, retaining an abundance of original cottage features including a charming log-burning stove, parquet flooring, exposed beams, and traditional cottage-style windows. Every room is infused with authenticity and character, resulting in a home of exceptional charm and individuality.

The thoughtfully designed kitchen is both well-appointed and practical, while to the rear, the inviting lounge is centred around the striking log burner, creating an idyllic retreat for cosy winter evenings. A hardwood door opens onto the beautifully landscaped rear garden


a true sun trap meticulously curated for outdoor enjoyment, featuring two seating areas surrounded by mature shrubs and vibrant flowering borders.

The first floor hosts a generously proportioned double bedroom overlooking the garden, together with a spacious four-piece bathroom appointed to an excellent standard. Ascending to the upper floor, the property reveals a further double bedroom accessed via a charming galleried staircase and complemented by built-in wardrobe storage.

This rare and characterful residence presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a historically significant cottage of considerable distinction, seamlessly balancing period authenticity with modern-day convenience. Further benefits include gas central heating served by a combination boiler.
