Set within about 2.04 acres, Ashes Farm is an attractive stone-built farmhouse with extensive mature gardens and a paddock, accessed via a private drive and separate paddock drive. The house offers four bedrooms, three reception rooms, a kitchen with utility and pantry, and a detached double garage with generous parking — a substantial plot for family living or country pursuits.
Parts of the house date back to the 16th century and retain period features such as stone mullion windows and exposed beams, while later extensions add practical living space and good views over the Derbyshire Dales. The principal bedroom includes extensive built-in wardrobes and the first-floor shower room is modern, but much of the interior requires updating to modern standards.
This property is best for buyers seeking a character farmhouse with significant outdoor space and renovation potential. Notable practical points: the house needs updating throughout, there is a covenant affecting the site, and council tax is high (Band G). Broadband and mobile signals are good and there is no flooding risk recorded.
With scope to modernise interiors, restore period detail, and reconfigure parts of the accommodation, Ashes Farm will suit a family or purchaser wanting a country home they can personalise, or someone looking to create an equestrian/amenity-rich smallholding close to Cromford village.
