BENNET SAMWAYS are delighted to present Highcliffe Farm, an exceptional four-bedroom link-detached farmhouse with landscaped gardens, set on a 0.27 acre plot with panoramic views across the Derbyshire countryside. The gross internal area is 2,300sq.ft.**

Nestled on the edge of the breathtaking Derbyshire Dales, just a stone’s throw from the charming village of Turnditch, Highcliffe Farm effortlessly blends countryside charm with modern sophistication. Once a thriving dairy farm, dating back to the 1820s, this remarkable property has been beautifully renovated by the current owners to create a spacious home that retains its original character whilst embracing stylish contemporary design.

Interior - Spanning over 2,230sq.ft. of accommodation, the property is approached through a stunning reception hall with vaulted ceiling, oak staircase and tempered glass balustrades. A feature double-sided log-burning stove creates a focal point shared with the dining room, and a mezzanine-style balcony completes this impressive entrance space.
The heart of the home is the farmhouse kitchen, fitted with modern cabinets and granite worktops, together with a Rangemaster cooker, dishwasher and space for a freestanding fridge/freezer. A fitted utility room provides plumbing for a washing machine and space for a dryer. Off the kitchen is a useful boot room with access to the garden and a fitted cloakroom/WC.
The sitting room is a superb reception space, measuring over 21' in length, with a feature brick fireplace housing a multi-fuel burner, and bi-folding doors opening onto the garden. The separate dining room offers another excellent entertaining area, while a study provides a private workspace, ideal for home working.
On the first floor, off the superb open landing space, the master bedroom is a generous suite with dressing room and a luxurious ensuite bathroom featuring a roll-top bath and separate shower. There are three further double bedrooms, one enjoying a private Juliet balcony with French doors framing the panoramic countryside views. The bedrooms are served by two stylish bathrooms, both fitted to a high standard and benefitting from underfloor heating.

Exterior - Highcliffe Farm is approached via a spacious gravel driveway with parking for several vehicles and access to the garage. The gardens have been beautifully landscaped, arranged over two levels with a newly installed patio, raised lawns, and colourful planted beds. The hot tub provides the perfect place to unwind and take in the spectacular countryside views, stretching as far as Alport Heights.

Locality - Set in a serene and peaceful position, the property offers a true countryside retreat, whilst remaining convenient for local towns. Belper lies just 4 miles away, Ashbourne 8 miles, and Derby is only a 20-minute drive. The nearby village of Turnditch is a picturesque village and civil parish nestled in the Amber Valley district of Derbyshire.

Owner's perspective - "We have been the proud owners of Highcliffe Farm since 2016.
During this time, the old dairy farmhouse, dating back to the 1820s, has been painstakingly restored to create a family home that combines modern living with traditional features. The property now breathes new life after seven years of restoration work. With country walks from the doorstep and a genuine sense of community, our home is ideally situated in a tranquil location, yet offers easy access to Ashbourne, Belper, and Wirksworth. The time has come to pass the baton to the next generation, and we are certain the new owners will appreciate its unique charms and idyllic location, while experiencing the breathtaking beauty of the Derbyshire Dales."
