Locality - Ashbourne is a historic market town known as “The Gateway to the Peak District” due to its convenient location to the magnificent Peak District National Park.

Famous for its annual Royal Shrovetide Football (dates back to 1667) which is played on Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday. There is a great array of amenities and facilities within a thriving town centre, which offers a plethora of individual, mainly independent shops and cafes. Ashbourne has a popular golf course on the outskirts of the town, and has the highly sought after secondary school of Queen Elizabeth’s Grammar School (QEGs) which serves Ashbourne and the surrounding Derbyshire Dales villages. There is a bus station which helps connect Ashbourne to Derby and Uttoxeter with a number of regular services, and nearby train stations at Uttoxeter and Derby & Matlock.

Owner's perspective - "'Russets' has been a wonderfully happy home for many years. It has seen the family grow and mature and welcomed grandchildren and great grandchildren alike. The home has always been the heart of the family and experienced a lot of laughter and happiness. We instantly felt at home in this house as the surrounding community and neighbourhood are so welcoming. The house is ideally placed for Ashbourne and local amenities, situated, as it is, in the Peak District with its breathtaking views. We have found the space and privacy of the house and garden a bonus for the quiet seclusion. The local area is peaceful, well maintained and the community are friendly and supportive. Local shops are within walking distance as are safe green spaces for children and pet exercising. We have always loved living here. The garden is mature, well kept, enclosed and secure with lots of seasonal interest. Inside is well maintained, spacious and has an atmosphere that reflects its years of being a happy family home."
