"“Roosters” is a truly remarkable property and a rare find.

Whilst it boasts the intricate attention to detail and contemporary luxuries you would expect to find in a property of this type, it also occupies a prime, rural position but without the isolation and without the maintenance you would expect of a premier countryside property.
This stunning and individually designed detached residence is a perfect example of what happens when luxurious, low maintenance living are beautifully intertwined with peaceful, idyllic countryside surroundings. Much time, planning and expense has gone into creating a property that can actually be enjoyed - rather than having to be constantly maintained and upgraded, a feature that is surprisingly uncommon in many of the rural properties currently available.
Amenities and transport is not a problem either. Ashbourne, considered to be one of Derbyshire's finest market towns, is very accessible. Derby City centre is approximately a fifteen minute car journey and the A50 and A52 are both just a few miles away providing rapid links east and west with swift access to M6, M42, M1 and the A38.
The property is well placed for East Midlands Airport and there is a fantastic range of well renowned schools within easy commuting distance including Repton, Abbotts Bromley, Foremarke Hall, Denstone College, Derby Grammar, and Abbottsholme.
