Lake Cottage, Barton Court, Church Broughton, DE65 5AN

Few homes offer the opportunity to live within the grounds of a Grade II* listed country estate.

Fewer still enjoy views across a picturesque lake, formal gardens and rolling Derbyshire countryside beyond. Barton Court is one of those rare exceptions.

Occupying a truly exceptional position within the historic grounds of Barton Hall, this magnificent three-bedroom mews residence forms part of an exclusive collection of just four character cottages arranged around the enchanting Clocktower Courtyard.

Set behind secure gated access and surrounded by beautifully maintained estate grounds, the property offers an unrivalled combination of history, character and lifestyle.

Rich in period charm and retaining a wealth of original features, including attractive stone mullion leaded-light windows, the home has been sympathetically enhanced to provide spacious and beautifully appointed accommodation that blends heritage and modern comfort in equal measure.

Barton Hall is one of Derbyshire's most significant historic estates, with origins dating back to the early 15th Century.

The Grade II* listed hall, together with many of the surrounding gardens and outbuildings, creates a setting of remarkable beauty and architectural significance.

Residents enjoy the privilege of living amongst landscaped formal gardens, tranquil lakeside surroundings and stunning countryside views, all within a secure and exclusive community.

The spacious accommodation enjoys a wonderful connection with its surroundings, with many rooms taking full advantage of the spectacular outlook across the lake, estate grounds and countryside beyond.

The result is a home that feels both elegant and peaceful, offering a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find.

The nearby village of Church Broughton is one of South Derbyshire's most sought-after villages, offering a charming rural community, historic church and popular village pub, whilst remaining exceptionally well connected.

Derby, Ashbourne, Burton upon Trent and Uttoxeter are all within easy reach, with excellent road links providing convenient access to Nottingham, Leicester, Stoke-on-Trent and Birmingham.

Properties within Barton Hall are rarely available to purchase.

Combining the prestige of a historic country estate, the security of a gated setting and the beauty of lakeside living, this outstanding home represents a genuinely rare opportunity to acquire a piece of Derbyshire's rich heritage.
