Locality - Nestled within the picturesque landscape, Ashbourne stands as a historic market town renowned as "The Gateway to the Peak District," owing to its strategic proximity to the breathtaking Peak District National Park. Conveniently situated with easy access to the A50 (9 miles), facilitating connections to the M1 and M6 motorway networks. 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. Excellent transport links include a well-connected bus station linking Ashbourne to Derby and Uttoxeter, with a variety of regular services. Convenient train stations at Uttoxeter, Derby, and Matlock further enhance connectivity. Ashbourne serves as an ideal base to explore numerous nearby attractions, including the stately Chatsworth House, Tissington Hall, Haddon Hall, Alton Towers, Matlock Bath, and the picturesque Dovedale, promising a truly enchanting experience.

Owner's perspective - "When we laid our eyes on 51 Derby Road we immediately loved its location, easy walking distance into the centre of Ashbourne, the ability to pop just around the corner to the shop or even walk across the road to the bus stop and while you had all these amenities on the doorstep you also have gorgeous green fields and views of the countryside from the front of the property that give you a real mixture of town and rural living - all these things sold us the property and we knew we wanted to inject some life back into it.
The bungalow although very well loved and lived in was tired and in need of a revamp - so we set about carefully stripping back everything bar a few walls and re building it. We added a large open plan kitchen/living at the back of the property - which really needs to be seen and stood in to be believed, it created a big family/ entertaining space that really isn’t apparent or appreciated when you look at the front of the property. Something through out the renovation we were really keen not to ruin was the bungalows “feel” even though when we bought it it felt old and worn - it was loved and had a very happy/ homely feel to it which we have been very careful to nurture and maintain this while we modernised absolutely everything."
