Locality - Marston Montgomery is a charming village nestled in a serene part of the Derbyshire Dales, just 7 miles from Ashbourne and 15 miles from Derby. It offers convenient access to the A50, M6, and M1 commuting networks. The village features Marston Montgomery Primary School, a village hall, the centrally located Crown Inn pub, village park, and the historic Church of Saint Giles, which dates back to Norman times. The village boasts a lovely array of architectural styles set against the backdrop of stunning countryside. Within a few miles, you'll find excellent private schools such as Abbotsholme School, Denstone College, and the JCB Academy. Marston Montgomery falls within the catchment area for Queen Elizabeth Grammar School (QEGS) in Ashbourne. For leisure activities, there are golf courses in Ashbourne and Uttoxeter, including the new championship-standard JCB Golf Course. Additionally, the Uttoxeter Racecourse and the world-famous Peak District are just a short distance away.

Owner's perspective - "For 24 years, The Farm in Marston Montgomery has been my sanctuary. A home I’ve restored with care while preserving its original character and history. Its peaceful countryside setting, just a short distance from Ashbourne or Uttoxeter, has brought me joy every single day.
Working from home here has always felt like a privilege. Two quiet lanes meet the house: Somersal Lane with its gentle hills, and Oak Lane offering a flatter stroll; perfect for stepping out, clearing your head, and watching the seasons unfold across the fields and trees.
My husband, a landscape photographer, has spent years capturing the wildlife, the landscape, and the ever changing light that make this place so special. Nearby, Harry’s Wood and a network of local footpaths offer endless walks for both people and dogs.
The village has a wonderful sense of community. There’s a friendly pub just far enough away for peace but close enough for an easy walk home, a new village hall, and a newsletter that keeps everyone connected. People stop to chat, they say hello, and you feel part of something.
Nights here are magical; dark skies full of stars, quiet air, and a stillness that makes sleep come easily. If you feel the same connection to this place that I have, I know The Farm will be loved and cared for in the years ahead."
