A handsome Grade II listed Georgian townhouse offering more than 3,500 sqft across three floors, arranged for comfortable family living in Ashbourne town centre. The house retains many original features—high ceilings, sash windows, decorative mouldings and multiple fireplaces—while providing large, flexible reception space and five bedrooms. The generous 0.24 acre plot, extensive private garden and detached double garage are rare central assets and suit families who value outside space and secure parking.
Practical accommodation includes a large dining kitchen with underfloor heating, utility, pantry, useful cellar rooms, and three bathrooms. Several rooms have modern comforts (double glazing to many windows, gas central heating) alongside stripped pine floors and original joinery. The oversized garage/workshop has power and water and is accessed separately from Hall Lane.
Important facts and constraints: the property is Grade II listed, which restricts alterations and will require specialist consents for many changes. The solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated (as-built), the EPC is rated D, and the property is in Council Tax Band F. These items affect running costs and refurbishment scope and should be considered when budgeting.
This is a rare opportunity for a family seeking a substantial period home in a thriving market town close to the Peak District. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, garden and versatility, and to discuss the implications of listed status with advisors.
