Marshbrook Cottage is a two-bedroom detached stone cottage set on the edge of Ashover, bordering the Peak District National Park. The location delivers instant countryside appeal, mature gardens, and easy access to village amenities and walking routes — ideal for someone seeking a peaceful base or a low-maintenance retreat.
Internally the cottage is characterful and compact: a cosy lounge with a log burner, a country-style kitchen, conservatory and a ground-floor shower room. Two first-floor bedrooms retain period features such as fireplaces and exposed beams. Mains gas central heating and double glazing are in place, providing practical comfort year-round.
Outside there is generous off-road parking, a detached double garage and a large garden with a fully insulated summer house/office with power and a balcony — useful as a home office, hobby room or rental annex. The plot size and outbuildings add flexibility for future uses.
Be aware this is an older, traditionally built cottage (pre-1900) with sandstone/limestone walls assumed to be uninsulated internally. Broadband speeds are reported as slow and council tax is above average, so buyers wanting full-time remote working or the lowest running costs should factor potential upgrade works into their plans. Overall, the property suits someone seeking a charming countryside home, second home or holiday-let with scope for sympathetic improvements.
