With private off-road parking and located within walking distance of Ashbourne town centre, this is a perfect starter home or 'second stepper' home for a young family.

On the ground floor, the spacious dual aspect lounge-diner leads through to the kitchen and separate utility room. On the first floor is a roomy double bedroom, single bedroom and bathroom. To the rear is a sun-trap south facing courtyard garden and private off-road parking.

The town centre is only a two minute drive from the home and includes a wide range of independent cafes, restaurants and shops. A nearby retail park includes an M&S Food store. Just outside Ashbourne are the Derbyshire Dales and Dovedale, with the Peak District just a short cycle ride or drive away. The county town of Derby is less than a 30 minute drive from this home, making it a perfect base for commuting.
