House hunters can now book a private appointment to explore Arkwood Living’s elegant new showhome, The Arkwright, at Mill View Meadows in Wirksworth, recently named by The Sunday Times as the best place to live in Derbyshire.
The Arkwright is a stylish and spacious three-bedroom home, designed with modern living in mind. Its open-plan living and dining area, complete with French doors leading out to the garden, creates a bright, welcoming space for relaxing or entertaining. Upstairs, a generously sized room, which serves as either a single bedroom or an office space, and two doubles, including a principal bedroom with ensuite, provide comfort and versatility for families, couples, or downsizers alike.
Every home in the development comes equipped with sustainable, energy-efficient features including solar panels, smart thermostats, EV charging points and cycle storage, allowing residents to enjoy modern amenities in a location full of charm and history. Mill View Meadows sits next to the Grade II listed Haarlem Mill, one of the earliest water-powered cotton mills in the country and said to have inspired George Eliot’s novel, The Mill on the Floss. Today, the mill serves as a popular industrial-style wedding venue, adding to the area’s unique charm.
Wirksworth offers independent shops, cafes and pubs, and a busy calendar of festivals and events. With easy access to the Peak District and Cromford railway station providing direct connections to Nottingham, Derby and Matlock, it’s an ideal place to call home.
Andrew Dewberry, Managing Director at Arkwood Living, said: “The Arkwright showhome will give buyers a real taste of the exceptional quality, style and attention to detail that define Mill View Meadows. With Wirksworth’s rich history, stunning surroundings and strong community spirit, we are confident this development will appeal to a wide range of homebuyers.”
Carl Bridge, Managing Director at Bricks + Mortar, said: “Bricks + Mortar are thrilled to be partnering with Arkwood Living to market and sell these fantastic new homes at Mill View Meadows. Arkwood’s high quality, energy-efficient homes will be a fantastic addition to Wirksworth, offering contemporary two- and three-bedroom properties for those looking to make the move here. The development’s setting next to historic Haarlem Mill, just a short walk from the town centre, makes it a truly special location.”
