Contemporary house with garden and terrace Derby (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 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.

A particular feature of the home is its flexibility, with additional rooms currently utilised as a gym and study/storeroom.

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.

Extending to approximately 7,610 sq ft, the accommodation is arranged over two principal floors and retains an exceptional collection of architectural details. Rich timber panelling, elaborate plasterwork, decorative ceilings, impressive fireplaces, tall windows and a magnificent staircase combine to create interiors of genuine distinction. The ground floor is particularly impressive, beginning with a substantial entrance lobby before opening into a magnificent entrance reception at the heart of the property. From here, the accommodation flows into the dining kitchen and family room, creating a series of impressive spaces equally suited to everyday family life and large scale entertaining. The first floor continues the sense of scale, centred around an exceptional galleried landing beneath a barrel vaulted glazed roof. A substantial sitting room provides an additional reception space, while four of the five bedrooms benefit from their own en suite facilities, complemented by an additional shower room adjacent to bedroom five. Outside, private terraces overlook the surrounding grounds and lake, while the property also benefits from extensive parking and access to a large tandem garage. Beyond the private outside space lie approximately 17 acres of communal grounds, creating a remarkable setting for a home of this scale and character. Ground Floor: The sense of arrival begins within an impressive entrance lobby, a substantial and beautifully detailed space which also provides a practical cloaks and storage area. A striking monochrome tiled floor runs beneath an elaborately decorated ceiling with ornate plasterwork and a series of traditional lanterns, while tall arched windows bring natural light into the room. Extensive fitted storage is discreetly incorporated along one wall, and substantial glazed timber double doors provide an immediate view through into the magnificent entrance reception beyond. This remarkable central space immediately establishes the scale and architectural importance of the property. Extensively lined with richly toned timber panelling, the entrance reception features beautifully carved detailing, substantial fluted columns and an elaborate decorative ceiling framed by deep cornicing with gilt detailing. Impressive chandeliers emphasise the height and grandeur of the room, while large windows bring natural light across the polished timber floor. The exceptional proportions allow the entrance reception to be arranged as a series of interconnected areas, providing generous space for seating and entertaining rather than functioning simply as a hallway. A particularly fine carved timber decorative fireplace creates a handsome focal point, with further intricately carved joinery continuing throughout. Rising directly from the entrance reception is a magnificent timber staircase, with a broad first flight, substantial turned balustrading and beautifully detailed timber panelling continuing alongside.

As the staircase rises, attention is drawn to the exceptional circular gallery, creating a dramatic architectural connection between the two floors. Beautifully formed curved timber balustrading follows its circumference, with decorative plasterwork and gilt detailing framing the opening and providing an extraordinary perspective through the centre of the house. A door from the entrance reception leads into the dining kitchen, an equally memorable room where the scale and decorative detailing of Rangemore Hall combine with the practical requirements of a contemporary kitchen.

The architectural detailing is particularly striking, with elaborate plasterwork extending across the walls and ceiling, deep decorative cornicing and an impressive chandelier. An ornate decorative marble fireplace provides another focal point, while tall windows and glazed doors bring excellent natural light into the room and draw the eye towards the grounds beyond. Beyond the dining area, a series of substantial classical columns creates a broad opening into the adjoining family room. This architectural division allows the two rooms to remain visually connected while retaining their own distinct identities. The family room is beautifully proportioned, continuing the elaborate decorative plasterwork and period detailing of the dining kitchen. A further decorative marble fireplace forms a natural focal point, complemented by a chandelier and an impressive arrangement of tall windows and glazed doors. Collectively, the kitchen, dining area and family room create an extraordinary open plan living and entertaining space, providing clearly defined areas for cooking, dining and relaxation while retaining an exceptional sense of scale and connection. Glazed doors from the family room open directly onto a private paved patio, establishing an immediate relationship between the principal living accommodation and outside space. From here, broad stone steps descend to the substantial terrace overlooking the grounds and lake, creating a natural continuation of the entertaining space during the warmer months. First Floor: The main staircase rises through the heart of the house to a quite exceptional first floor landing, where the craftsmanship of the entrance reception continues at an equally impressive level. Richly finished timber balustrading wraps around the stairwell, while substantial carved columns and arches frame the different sections of the landing. Above, an extraordinary barrel vaulted glazed roof floods the central landing with natural light, with a chandelier suspended beneath and complemented by decorative plasterwork, deep cornicing and subtle gilt detailing. At its centre, the circular gallery creates another memorable architectural feature, its beautifully curved timber balustrading surrounding the opening to the floor below and maintaining the visual connection between the two levels.

Its adjoining en suite bathroom is unusually generous and has the proportions of a room in its own right.

A separate shower room positioned adjacent to bedroom five serves this part of the accommodation and is fitted with a substantial enclosed shower, pedestal wash hand basin and WC. Completing the first floor accommodation is a useful laundry and store room, comprehensively fitted with a range of wall and base cabinetry providing excellent storage, work surfaces, a sink and space and plumbing for laundry appliances.

Immediately outside the family room is a private paved patio, providing an intimate space for morning coffee or informal outdoor seating directly alongside the house. Broad stone steps descend from here to a substantial private terrace, creating an impressive outdoor entertaining area. The terrace enjoys an elevated outlook across the surrounding parkland and towards the lake, with a traditional ha ha preserving the uninterrupted view across the landscape. Its scale provides ample room for outdoor furniture and makes this a particularly appealing setting for relaxing, alfresco dining and entertaining. The wider communal grounds extend to approximately 17 acres and form an important part of the setting of Rangemore Hall, with extensive lawns, mature specimen trees, established planting and the lake creating an exceptional parkland environment around the property. The lake is stocked with a variety of fish, providing an additional recreational attraction within the grounds.

Occupying one of the finest elevated positions in the area, Larch Tree Farm commands breathtaking, far reaching panoramic views across the Derbyshire countryside. Offered with approximately 10 acres and the option to acquire a further 26.56 acres, the estate combines the timeless elegance of a Georgian inspired farmhouse with the charm and character of a beautifully preserved Grade II Listed detached cottage, creating a truly remarkable opportunity for those seeking an outstanding family home with exceptional versatility. Constructed in the late 1990s, the principal residence has been thoughtfully designed to reflect the proportions and architectural character of a traditional Georgian farmhouse, blending seamlessly with its surroundings. Behind its handsome stone façade lies a beautifully balanced home where elegant reception rooms, four generous en suite bedrooms and a carefully considered layout have all been designed to embrace the spectacular outlook, creating an effortless connection with the surrounding landscape. Complementing the principal residence is the delightful Grade II Listed detached cottage, offering an independent three bedroom home that lends itself perfectly to multi-generational living, welcoming extended family, guest accommodation or holiday letting potential. Together, the two properties create a level of flexibility that is seldom found within a single country estate. Beyond the accommodation, mature landscaped gardens, traditional outbuildings, an orchard and approximately 10 acres combine to create an exceptional lifestyle opportunity. Purchasers also have the option to acquire a further 26.56 acres of adjoining pasture land, creating a substantial Derbyshire country estate extending to approximately 36.56 acres. Whether relaxing on the stone terrace as the sun sets across the valley, entertaining family and friends or simply embracing the peace and privacy of this remarkable setting, Larch Tree Farm offers a unique combination of architectural character, modern family living and some of the most spectacular far reaching countryside views Derbyshire has to offer. Ground Floor: Opening through double entrance doors, the welcoming reception hall immediately sets the tone for the quality and proportions found throughout the home. Natural stone flooring, excellent ceiling heights and carefully considered architectural detailing create an elegant first impression, while the central hallway provides a seamless connection to the principal reception rooms. Positioned to take full advantage of the property's commanding elevated setting, the drawing room is an elegant reception room where glazed doors frame the breathtaking far reaching panoramic views and open directly onto the extensive stone terrace. A handsome fireplace incorporating a wood burning stove provides a warm and inviting focal point, creating a room equally suited to relaxed evenings and entertaining throughout the changing seasons. Providing a more informal environment for family life and entertaining, the adjoining games room is enhanced by a vaulted ceiling with exposed reclaimed timbers and is currently arranged around a full size pool table, creating a superb space for relaxing with family and friends. Beyond, the generous study continues the same character and proportions whilst benefiting from its own independent external access, making it ideally suited to home working, consulting or the operation of a business from home.
