Noteworthy for its longstanding tradition of Royal Shrovetide Football, a ritual dating back to 1667, observed on Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday. The thriving town boasts a diverse range of amenities, featuring a plethora of distinctive, predominantly independent shops, and charming cafes. Adding to its allure, Ashbourne hosts a popular golf course on its outskirts, and the coveted Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School (QEGs) caters to the educational needs of the town and the adjacent Derbyshire Dales villages.

Owner's perspective - "We have lived here for 12 years and modernised the house to make a welcoming family home. Forshaw Close is a quiet cul-de-sac with lovely neighbours. We are within easy reach of Ashbourne town centre, just 10-15 minutes walk, and close by to local countryside for family walks with four legged friends. Our dining kitchen and garden room make the perfect space for entertaining and the log burning stove warms the house downstairs on those cold winter days. A great space to relax and unwind."
