St. John Street, Ashbourne

Jasmine House is one of the oldest buildings located in the centre of the thriving town of Ashbourne. Previously known as Peter Cook's - and more recently Bennett's - this historical and characterful setting has been completely refurbished to create a hub of commercial outlets with residential accommodation on the upper floors. The original staircase has been renovated plus there is a lift to each floor including private entry to the Penthouse from a private entrance to the building.

Sympathetically developed, these seven apartments (covering the second, third and fourth floors of the building) have lots of character yet have all modern conveniences such as brand new kitchens with integrated appliances and quartz work surfaces* and bathrooms. Each apartment is very different to the others and most are quirky either with lay out or with beams throughout walls and ceilings. Allocated parking is also included - just a short walk away.

You enter the apartment via the hallway where all the rooms are off. To the left is a double bedroom with shower/basin and to the right is the cloaks/wc. The hallway also leads to the main living area where the kitchen is to the left and has a breakfast bar for dining plus there is a spacious lounge area too. Built in appliances include oven, hob and extractor plus washer/dryer and slimline dishwasher - there is plenty of space for a fridge/freezer (not included)

Ashbourne is steeped in history and known as the gateway to the Peak District. Shopping is a pure pleasure thanks to its plethora of small, family-run businesses plus it was granted a charter for a market in 1257 and a market still takes place in the quaint cobbled town centre. It is a vibrant town with plenty of interesting shops to browse around selling fine antiques, designer fashion and speciality shops too. There are plenty of pitstops for you to then relax over morning coffee, lunch or afternoon tea in a selection of cafés, inns and tea rooms. There is the added benefit of two supermarkets within walking distance and the Memorial Gardens on the edge of the town, complete with stream and duck pond, provide the perfect spot to escape the hustle and bustle or enjoy a picnic.

With more than 200 listed buildings - including historic Almshouses and fine coaching inns, the Old Grammar School, The Greenman pub and the beautiful St Oswald's Parish Church with its striking 212 feet high spire. Ashbourne is also famed for the ancient tradition of Royal Shrovetide Football. Bearing little resemblance to actual football, this is a game played every Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday in February, involving hundreds of players where a ball can be kicked, carried or thrown through the streets.

Walkers, cyclists and horse riders will appreciate the fact that the town also sits at the start of the traffic-free Tissington Trail - a green gateway to Dovedale and the Pennine Bridleway, linking up farther north with the popular High Peak Trail. Ideal for town and the countryside.
