Owner's perspective - "We have lived in our house for 12 years and loved every minute of it. It has been a very happy home full of fun and laughter. We have poured our heart and soul into creating a beautiful peaceful, tranquil and private garden. When we first moved here it was just an unusable and inaccessible space. We have created a patio seating area on each level so no matter what time of the day you can always sit in the sunshine or the shade. We have loved keeping all the original character and features of this beautiful Edwardian lady and it is going to be a real wrench to leave her. But it is now time for us to downsize with most of our sons already flown and flying the nest. It is time for our next chapter. Living in the heart of Ashbourne town has been absolutely wonderful. We are always attending the many events that are held yearly, Shrovetide, the lantern parade, we have prime view from our lounge window to watch the Christmas tractor parade that even at our age still delights us. Its wonderful to be able to walk over to the many bars, coffee shops and eateries and our boys have loved being in the heart of the town walking to and from school with friends and being involved in the football rugby and tennis clubs and of course the leisure centre and easy access to the parks and Tissington trail. Its been our very happy place and home for all of us."
