luxury houses with pool for sale Ashbourne, United Kingdom

Ashcroft represents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully renovated detached home occupying an elevated position on the outskirts of the highly regarded village of Repton. Whilst the quality of the refurbishment is immediately apparent, it is the combination of a turnkey village home and approximately 2.25 acres of adjoining paddock land that truly sets Ashcroft apart. Properties offering adjoining land within such close proximity to Repton are seldom available, creating a unique lifestyle opportunity for purchasers seeking space, privacy and a direct connection to the surrounding countryside without compromising on convenience. The result is a property that successfully combines modern living, extensive outside space and genuine lifestyle versatility in a way that is increasingly difficult to find within today's market. The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged and includes a welcoming reception hallway, spacious living room with wood-burning stove, superb breakfast kitchen with central island, large utility and boot room, principal bedroom with contemporary en-suite, two further bedrooms, a stylish family bathroom, gym and a versatile study/store room. Outside, the property continues to impress with extensive parking, landscaped gardens, a charming BBQ hut, garden room/home office and adjoining paddock land extending to approximately 2.25 acres. The combination of a fully renovated home, generous outside space and land creates a package that is becoming increasingly difficult to find within one of South Derbyshire's most sought-after locations. Accommodation: The property is approached via an entrance porch which opens into a welcoming reception hallway, setting the tone for the quality and presentation found throughout the home. At the heart of the property is a beautifully appointed breakfast kitchen, thoughtfully designed around a central island and providing an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining. Complementing the kitchen is a substantial utility and boot room offering excellent practical storage and additional workspace. The living room is a warm and inviting space centred around a feature wood-burning stove, creating a wonderful focal point for the room. Large windows draw natural light into the accommodation whilst framing attractive views across the gardens and surrounding landscape. The principal bedroom suite has been superbly upgraded and enjoys the benefit of a stylish en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom finished to an excellent standard. A particular feature of the home is its flexibility, with additional rooms currently utilised as a gym and study/storeroom. These versatile spaces offer excellent scope for home working, hobbies, fitness or additional accommodation depending upon individual requirements. Throughout the property, the extensive renovation programme has created a home that combines modern comforts with practical living, allowing purchasers to move straight in and immediately enjoy everything Ashcroft has to offer. Outside: Ashcroft enjoys the rare advantage of two separate driveway areas, beginning with an initial driveway to the front aspect which serves a private lawned garden and terrace patio, creating an attractive approach to the home. To the rear aspect, an electrically operated gate provides access to an extensive resin driveway, offering substantial parking for numerous vehicles whilst creating a secure and impressive arrival point. The rear gardens have been thoughtfully designed with ease of maintenance in mind whilst providing a variety of spaces for relaxation and entertaining. Two generous terrace patios create ideal areas for outdoor dining and social gatherings, one of which incorporates a charming BBQ hut, allowing the space to be enjoyed throughout the year. A low-maintenance artificial lawn forms the centrepiece of the rear garden, complemented by a greenhouse and productive vegetable garden area, creating an appealing balance between practicality and outdoor enjoyment. To the side of the property, a further artificial lawned garden continues the theme of attractive yet easily managed outside space. Positioned within the grounds is a superb garden room with decked seating area, offering excellent versatility as a home office, studio, gym, leisure room or peaceful retreat overlooking the gardens. Accessed directly from the resin driveway via a gated entrance, the adjoining paddock extends to approximately 2.25 acres and represents an increasingly rare opportunity within such a sought-after village setting. Whether utilised for equestrian interests, recreational pursuits or simply enjoyed as a beautiful extension of the property's grounds, the land provides a lifestyle offering seldom available on the outskirts of Repton.
