Derby Road, Ashbourne, DE6

Set well back from Derby Road behind a gated gravel driveway, this double-fronted Ashbourne home makes a striking first impression. An arched entrance framed by two bay windows gives the house its distinctive frontage, while the generous grounds to the front and rear offer a rare sense of space so close to Ashbourne’s historic Market Place.

The current owners have undertaken an extensive programme of improvements, including new flooring, a new underfloor heating system and replacement windows to the majority of the property. Much of the work goes beyond what you can see, and the home now achieves an EPC rating of C. The exposed brickwork along the staircase and landing brings warmth and character to the interior, while the contemporary four-piece bathroom is a standout feature.

A central hallway leads to two separate bay-fronted reception rooms, giving the sitting room and dining room their own distinct spaces. The kitchen and breakfast room sits to the rear, with a view of the garden and direct access outside. It works as an everyday family kitchen and offers scope for a bespoke redesign in time. A ground-floor cloakroom completes the layout.

Upstairs, a bright landing leads to three genuinely well-proportioned double bedrooms and the family bathroom. Outside, the long driveway offers ample parking and leads to a garage, with a broad lawn and established hedging to the front. The generous rear garden offers space to enjoy as it is, as well as the opportunity to consider an extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

With its generous plot, distinctive frontage and proximity to the Market Place, this is a rare opportunity to buy a detached family home in this part of Ashbourne. The property is offered for sale with no onward chain.
