Meadow Farm is a substantial four-bedroom detached home built in 2001 and set in just under seven acres, ideal for families with equestrian or hobby-farming interests. The house combines character features — exposed beams and an inglenook-style fireplace — with practical modern living: two reception rooms, a large living kitchen/dining area and a useful utility. A double garage with a first-floor studio/office and extensive outbuildings support vehicle storage, workshops or ancillary uses.
The plot delivers genuine rural privacy and wide Derbyshire countryside views from many rooms. Formal lawns and a large paved terrace suit outside entertaining, while the grassed paddocks beyond offer immediate scope for grazing, stables or garden extension (no public footpaths cross the land). Generous gravel parking provides space for up to ten vehicles.
Practical points for buyers: broadband speeds are very slow and council tax is band E (above average), which are important for working-from-home or running a small equestrian business. The property is freehold, has excellent mobile signal and lies within easy driving distance of Chesterfield, Matlock and Bakewell. Overall, this is a rare rural family home offering substantial land, outbuilding potential and versatile accommodation for hobby farmers, car enthusiasts or families wanting space to expand.
