Description

This expansive farmhouse offers a significant opportunity for renovation and redevelopment, set amidst picturesque views of the surrounding farmland and tree-lined brook. The property features traditional brick buildings with tiled roofs alongside more contemporary structures, all of which present various potential development avenues. Nestled on Main Street in the desirable village of Roston within the Derbyshire Dales, this home is conveniently located approximately 7 miles from Ashbourne and near major routes connecting to the Peak District and beyond. The farmhouse itself comprises around 3,700 sq ft of versatile living space, including multiple reception rooms adorned with fireplaces, a pantry, kitchen, office, and up to six bedrooms across two floors. A separate staircase provides access to additional attic storage or potential living space. The outdoor area includes an attractive front garden that leads to side gardens and a substantial lawn area—an ideal setting for creating further residential units through conversion or infill projects (subject to planning consent). With the added benefit of various outbuildings—including two sizeable brick structures with lofts—the site could be transformed into multiple living spaces or retained as a private estate. The property's considerable size offers opportunities for subdivision if desired, making it appealing for families or investors looking to maximize its potential in this sought-after locality. Recent indications from local council suggest positive reception for conversions, although prospective buyers should conduct further inquiries regarding planning viability. Given these factors, this property represents a unique chance to create a stunning family home or invest in a lucrative redevelopment project within one of Derbyshire's most charming villages.
