Ashbrook Grove, Sudbury, Ashbourne, DE6 5QY

Designed around the way modern families really live, 3 Ashbrook Grove combines generous, light-filled accommodation with a wonderfully sociable layout that feels equally at home hosting a house full of friends as it does enjoying a quiet evening together.

At its heart is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family space, where striking corner bi-fold doors blur the boundaries between inside and out, allowing the garden to become a natural extension of the home. Complemented by versatile reception spaces, four bedrooms and a luxurious principal suite, there is room here to entertain, work, relax and retreat in equal measure.

Contemporary design is matched by an impressive specification, with underfloor heating, air conditioning to selected rooms and an excellent EPC B rating adding comfort throughout the seasons. Beyond the house, sun-filled gardens, a private hot tub and the unusual addition of further land create a lifestyle that offers considerably more than you might expect from a modern family home.

Ground Floor:

A welcoming entrance hall introduces a ground floor designed to work just as brilliantly for everyday family life as it does for entertaining, with a collection of individual reception spaces providing flexibility alongside an exceptional open-plan heart to the home.

To the front, a dedicated office creates the perfect environment for working from home, while the separate snug offers somewhere to retreat, relax or enjoy a quieter evening. A further generously proportioned reception room provides yet another versatile living space, allowing family life, entertaining and home working to comfortably coexist without compromise.

The real showstopper lies to the rear. Extending to approximately 6.1m x 6.9m, the impressive kitchen and dining space was made for bringing people together. Beautifully equipped with everything required for modern living, including a Quooker boiling-water tap and wine fridge, there is ample room for cooking, dining and entertaining, while the breakfast bar becomes a natural gathering place for everything from morning coffee to drinks with friends.

Two sets of bi-fold doors wrap around the corner of the room, flooding the space with natural light and creating an incredible connection with the garden. Throw both sets open and the entire corner seemingly disappears, allowing parties, family gatherings and summer evenings to flow effortlessly from inside to out. It is easy to see why this has become the heart of the home and the backdrop to so many of the owners' favourite occasions.

A separate utility room keeps the practicalities of everyday life neatly away from the main entertaining space, while a ground-floor cloakroom and integral garage complete the accommodation.

First Floor:

Upstairs, four bedrooms provide plenty of space for family and guests, but it is the principal suite that really steals the show.

Created as somewhere to retreat to at the end of the day, this is a bedroom that feels wonderfully removed from the pace of everyday life. Bespoke Neville Johnson wardrobes have been seamlessly incorporated into the room, while air conditioning keeps the space beautifully comfortable throughout the warmer months.

The real indulgence sits quietly in the corner. A freestanding bath, raised on its own illuminated platform, transforms the bedroom into something reminiscent of a boutique hotel suite, somewhere to close the door, run a bath and completely switch off. Together with the private en-suite shower room, it creates a space that feels less like simply a bedroom and more like your own private escape.

Three further bedrooms give children, family and overnight guests their own comfortable spaces, with a contemporary family bathroom completing the first-floor accommodation.

Above, the loft has been fully boarded, providing valuable additional storage and making practical use of the space available.

Outside:

Outside is where another side of the lifestyle at 3 Ashbrook Grove really comes into its own. Designed to connect effortlessly with the house, the garden becomes an extension of the entertaining space, particularly when those corner bi-fold doors are thrown open and life begins to flow between inside and out.

One of the things the owners have loved most is the way the sunshine moves around the property throughout the day. There is almost always a sunny spot to escape to, whether that's coffee outside in the morning, friends gathering in the garden through the afternoon or a long summer evening that ends with a glass of something cold in the hot tub. Positioned within a particularly private corner, the hot tub has become a favourite place to unwind after the working day.

Beyond the more formal garden lies something increasingly difficult to find alongside a contemporary home, additional land. The owners have allowed areas to grow naturally, creating a wonderfully informal haven where birds, bees and butterflies have been encouraged to flourish. It brings another dimension to the outside space, offering freedom, nature and possibilities for the next owners to make their own.

Practicality hasn't been forgotten either. Additional hardstanding has been created to the rear, providing parking for approximately eight vehicles, while fencing has also been added to the front of the property.

Location:

Surrounded by open countryside yet wonderfully connected, 3 Ashbrook Grove offers the kind of location that allows you to step away from the pace of everyday life without feeling removed from everything you need.

The development itself comprises just four homes, creating an intimate and exclusive setting where neighbours know one another, dogs meet for morning walks and there is a genuine sense of community without compromising privacy. For those who love being outdoors, beautiful countryside surrounds the property, with walking routes to enjoy from home and the magnificent landscapes of the nearby Peak District waiting to be explored.

The surrounding villages offer plenty of places to become a regular, with the owners particularly enjoying weekends at The Crown Inn, where they have become part of the local community. For an active lifestyle, nearby gyms and fitness communities provide further opportunities to meet people locally.

The historic market town of Ashbourne is within easy reach, offering an excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, while convenient road connections place Derby, Uttoxeter and the wider Midlands network comfortably within reach.

It is a location that gives you the freedom to enjoy countryside when you want it, community when you need it and connectivity when life calls for it, a fitting final piece of everything that makes 3 Ashbrook Grove such an enjoyable place to call home.
