Babington Farm presents a distinctive development opportunity nestled in the tranquil hamlet of Dethick. This expansive plot includes three barns, one of which has already received planning approval for conversion into a four-bedroom home, with initial works underway. The unique layout and character of the site allow for a variety of uses, whether as a spacious family residence, multi-generational living arrangement, or lucrative holiday rental venture. Surrounded by picturesque countryside, the property is easily accessed via two gated drives, enhancing its appeal once developed.
The grounds include an extensive lawned garden along Dethick Lane and approved plans for a detached garage. Multiple water supplies (three mains and two private springs) suggest potential for further subdivision or enhanced living facilities. The charm of Babington Farm lies not just in its rural serenity but also in its proximity to essential amenities found in nearby villages such as Lea, Holloway, Cromford, and Crich; Matlock is just a short drive away.
With the Peak District National Park within easy reach and convenient transport links to major cities from Derby and Chesterfield, this property strikes an excellent balance between rural retreat and accessibility. The existing barns offer considerable scope for renovation into additional living spaces or guest accommodations (subject to planning), making this an exceptional investment proposition in an idyllic setting.
