A substantial late-Victorian detached house set on approximately 1.4 acres, this property combines generous period rooms with a productive garden and a separate two-bedroom annexe. High ceilings, sash and bay windows, original fireplaces and limestone-flagged floors give the main house strong period character and flexible accommodation across nearly 4,500 sq ft. The annexe offers self-contained accommodation ideal for extended family, guests, or rental income.
The grounds are a standout asset: former pleasure lawns framed by mature oaks and limes, orchards, vegetable beds, greenhouse and multiple outbuildings including single and double garages and a writer’s shed-studio. The long private drive and stone-walled boundaries provide seclusion and extensive outdoor space for family life, leisure and small-scale growing.
Practical considerations: the house dates from the 1890s and retains solid brick walls with no assumed insulation; double glazing is present but installation date is unknown. Heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and council tax is described as expensive. These are important factors to weigh alongside the property’s generous scale and rural setting.
Located in Clifton near Ashbourne, the house sits within attractive Derbyshire Dales countryside with good local schools and amenities nearby. The village location suits buyers seeking space, privacy and country living with convenient road links to Derby, Birmingham and Sheffield for commuting or leisure.
