Locality - Nestled within the picturesque landscape, Ashbourne stands as a historic market town renowned as "The Gateway to the Peak District," owing to its strategic proximity to the breathtaking Peak District National Park. Conveniently situated with easy access to the A50 (9 miles), facilitating connections to the M1 and M6 motorway networks. Noteworthy for its longstanding tradition of Royal Shrovetide Football, a ritual dating back to 1667, observed on Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday. The thriving town boasts a diverse range of amenities, featuring a plethora of distinctive, predominantly independent shops, and charming cafes. Adding to its allure, Ashbourne hosts a popular golf course on its outskirts, and the coveted Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School (QEGs) caters to the educational needs of the town and the adjacent Derbyshire Dales villages. Excellent transport links include a well-connected bus station linking Ashbourne to Derby and Uttoxeter, with a variety of regular services. Convenient train stations at Uttoxeter, Derby, and Matlock further enhance connectivity. Ashbourne serves as an ideal base to explore numerous nearby attractions, including the stately Chatsworth House, Tissington Hall, Haddon Hall, Alton Towers, Matlock Bath, and the picturesque Dovedale, promising a truly enchanting experience.
Owner's perspective - "I lived in 10 Cavendish Drive for 10 years and loved it. The back of the house faces south so the dining room and kitchen are bathed in sunshine all day. In the early evening it comes round and shines in the living room.
The local area is very flat and has no through traffic along Cavendish Drive.
At the end of the road is a convenience store and post box. The buses run from here to Derby and Uttoxeter every half hour. Five minutes walk away is the CO-OP, Greggs and a chip shop and Preston’s garage opposite has a really nice coffee bar. Last, but not least, are the neighbours who are all local people and friendly and happy to help if called upon. Ashbourne itself is 5 minutes by car and has all the amenities you would expect from a historic market town."
