A Landmark Country Estate of Exceptional Scale, Setting and Potential

Circa 13377 sq ft | Approx. 6 Acres | Indoor Pool & Leisure Complex | Elevated Far-Reaching.

Views
Bent Farm represents one of the most significant residential opportunities to come to the market within the Derbyshire Dales in recent years. Set within approximately 6 acres of elevated countryside, enjoying sweeping open views, this vast country residence extends to in excess of 13,000 square feet and has been conceived on a scale rarely found outside prime national estates.

Currently partially completed , the property offers a remarkable opportunity for a discerning buyer/developer or investor to finish and personalise what will, once completed, rank among the finest private homes in the region.

The House
Arranged over three substantial floors, Bent Farm has been designed with both grand entertaining and luxury family living in mind. The internal volumes are immediately impressive, with extensive reception spaces, high ceilings and a layout that flows effortlessly between formal living areas and leisure accommodation.

The principal accommodation provides four generous bedrooms, complemented by a remarkable range of reception rooms that offer flexibility for formal entertaining, family use, home offices or further bedroom suites if desired.

Large openings and glazing have been carefully positioned to frame the surrounding landscape, ensuring the setting and views form an integral part of the home’s design.

Kitchen & Living Spaces
At the heart of the home lies a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, flooded with natural light via a dramatic glazed atrium lantern. This space has been designed as a true centrepiece of the house, ideal for both everyday living and large-scale entertaining.

The scale of this room, combined with its architectural glazing and connection to the surrounding countryside, creates an environment more commonly associated with prime contemporary country houses.

Leisure & Entertaining
Bent Farm has been conceived as a complete lifestyle estate, with leisure facilities that rival those of a private members’ club.

Ground Floor Leisure Wing
The dedicated leisure wing is already well advanced and includes space for:
• A large indoor swimming pool set beneath vaulted ceilings
• Jacuzzi and spa area
• Sauna
• Gymnasium

Full-height glazing and wide picture windows overlook the surrounding land and countryside, creating a dramatic and uplifting wellness environment.

Lower Ground Floor – Entertainment Level
The lower floor has been designed as a dedicated entertaining and leisure level, with space allocated for:

• A private cinema room
• Bar and entertaining areas
• Additional leisure, games or relaxation rooms

This level is ideal for hosting on a grand scale, providing separation from the principal living accommodation above.

Grounds & Setting
The house sits within approximately 6 acres of land, offering privacy, open views and tremendous scope for landscaping. The elevated position provides a commanding outlook across the surrounding countryside, while the land itself offers potential for gardens, caravan site use, paddocks or further amenity use, subject to the necessary consents.
Despite its rural setting, Bent Farm remains well placed for access into Matlock, the wider Derbyshire Dales and onward connections.

The Opportunity
Bent Farm is not a finished home — but it is precisely this that defines its appeal. The structure, scale, layout and leisure infrastructure are already in place, allowing an incoming purchaser to complete the property to their own specification and aesthetic with a potential of 7 bedrooms. Once finished, this will be a statement residence of exceptional quality, combining scale, leisure, privacy and views in a way seldom available within Derbyshire.
This is a rare chance to acquire and complete a truly landmark country estate.
