Summary - Riggs Lane, Marston Montgomery, Ashbourne, Derbyshire DE6 2FD
2 bed 1 bath Detached
Character barn conversion with paddock, stables and gated driveway in peaceful countryside.
Over 1.25 acres total plot including paddock and outbuildings
Set on over an acre and a quarter, this converted detached barn pairs country character with manageable accommodation ideal for downsizers who want space without upkeep of a large house. The property offers two bedrooms, one bathroom and open countryside views from gardens that wrap the house, plus a large paddock with two stables, tack/store and a timber carport/store. Parking is private and generous via a gated driveway.
The interior blends rustic features and practical fittings: exposed brickwork and wood floors, a cottage-style kitchen with an LPG Rayburn feeding the hot water/central heating system, and a sitting room with a herringbone brick fireplace. The conversion is described as brand new/never lived in, but the building dates to the late 1970s/early 1980s construction period and some service details (double glazing install date) are unspecified.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: heating runs from oil and an LPG Rayburn (not a mains gas system), the property is served by private drainage, and the EPC is rated E. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and the location is a remoter hamlet — excellent for privacy but less convenient for commuting. Local amenities include a village primary school, a popular pub/restaurant and easy road access to Ashbourne and Uttoxeter (both under 8 miles).
This home suits someone seeking rural privacy, outdoor space for horses or hobby farming, and a comfortable, low-traffic setting. It will particularly appeal to buyers who prioritise land, character and peace over urban connectivity and who are comfortable managing oil/LPG systems and private drainage arrangements.
