Locality - Stubwood is a small hamlet located just outside Denstone, this charming village nestled between the historic market towns of Uttoxeter and Ashbourne.

Owner's perspective - "We fell in love with this house when we were looking to move back to the area. It’s in a quiet location with easy access to the local pub and farm shop in Denstone. It was one of a small number of individual houses in the village built by a local builder to high standard. The rooms are spacious and it easily accommodated our family when they were living at home. We have been living here for 11 years now and have made various improvements including improving energy efficiency through new doors and windows, additional loft insulation, solar panels and a heat pump. After slow speeds in the first few years it was great to finally get fibre to the house so we also now enjoy very fast broadband. The integrated double garage is a really useful space year round, particularly now we have installed an insulated garage door. Frankly, if we could move the house to Devon with us we would!"
