Summary - Callow End Farm, Mappleton, ASHBOURNE DE6 2AB
6 bed 5 bath Character Property
Elevated rural home with separate two‑bed barn and paddock.
Four double bedrooms in the main farmhouse with two en suites
Elevated above the Dove Valley, this restored mid‑18th century farmhouse and adjacent two‑bed barn offer substantial rural living with exceptional views. The main house provides four double bedrooms, two en suites and generous reception rooms with underfloor heating; handmade kitchen units, granite worktops and a four‑oven AGA deliver traditional character with modern comforts. The recently converted barn adds independent two‑bed accommodation and an attic with conversion potential.
The holding extends to about 1.75 acres including lawned gardens, a grass paddock and a courtyard of traditional brick outbuildings: stables, a granary/garage and a large barn that previously had planning for conversion. These buildings, together with three‑phase electricity and separate oil boilers for house and barn, suit equestrian use, hobby farming or further conversion subject to consents. A restrictive covenant protects the view across the front land in perpetuity.
Practical points to note: heating is oil‑fired (private supply), broadband speeds can be very slow and the historic stone walls are likely uninsulated. There is an overage clause if the property is developed and sold in parts. Council tax for the farmhouse is currently higher banded and the barn tax band is awaiting revision.
This is a strong choice for buyers seeking a character country home with immediate two‑bed supplementary accommodation, equestrian potential and scope to enhance value through sensitive conversion of existing farm buildings. It suits families, smallholders or buyers seeking a private rural base close to Ashbourne and outdoor recreation.
