The property is located in the quiet hamlet of Littlemoor on the outskirts of the village of Ashover and is surrounded by beautiful open countryside.
Ashover is an extremely popular and attractive Derbyshire village with excellent amenities, including a medieval church, community centre, Post Office, butcher, shops, doctors, public houses and primary school. Well-placed for the Derbyshire Dales and the Peak District it is in easy reach of the M1 and A38, giving easy access to local cities.
The property has been utilised as a smallholding and provided a bumper yield of produce for both personal use and for sale within the local community. The vendors keep their own horses and sheep flock, as well as having vegetable and cut flower beds, a polytunnel and free range chickens. The vendors are also self sufficient in firewood, with the approx. 1 acre of woodland to the rear boundary. Generous wildlife margins have been left as habitat for a wonderful variety of flora and fauna, including wild orchids and hares.
The vendors have a vibrant and informative Instagram page which plots their lives on the farm and which potential purchasers are encouraged to visit to get a feel for the lifestyle opportunity that the property offers. It can be found at: folk_hattie
