The Opportunity
An outstanding development opportunity to deliver a market leading care home in one of the most affluent settlements in Derbyshire
Located within the attractive market town of Ashbourne in the Derbyshire Dales, Ashbourne is one of the most affluent and desirable settlements in Derbyshire
Proposed 74-bed scheme with positive pre-application planning feedback
Vendor will fund and submit a planning application in Q2 2024
Benefitting from average house prices exceeding £360,000 throughout the 5-mile catchment of the site
Significant lack of en-suite wet room bed spaces and very limited dedicated dementia provision in existing care homes servicing the catchment
Highly accessible site with excellent public transport links
Complementary existing and proposed surrounding uses – residential, commercial and green spaces
Site area measures 1.63 acres (0.66 hectares)
Freehold site (title no. DY486203) with vacant possession
The Location
The site is located some 2 kilometres South East of Ashbourne Town Centre, on the North side of Derby Road, immediately adjacent to the eastern terminal roundabout for the A52 Ashbourne by-pass, and between Derby Road to the South and the extensive Airfield Industrial Estate to the North.
Ashbourne is an affluent market town located in the Derbyshire Dales within the East Midlands. The closest town to the Dovedale valley in the Peak District and is described as ‘The Gateway to Dovedale’.
The 5-mile catchment area boasts an average house price exceeding £360,000
Links & Transport
The site is easily accessible by road and benefits from the nearby convergence of the A52 and A515 which provide access to nearby towns of Mayfield and Clifton.
Bus routes run along Derby Road and provide public transport with the closest bus stop a 3 minute walk from the site, providing access to the centre of Ashbourne in 10 minutes.
The Site
The site is accessed via two separate entrances off Derby Road, the northern entrance is currently operational, servicing the existing property. An entrance once used for the industrial estate located on the South of the application site is no longer utilised.
The site is opposite to Cameron Homes’ Sycamore Grange housing development which comprises four and five-bedroom detached houses with prices ranging from £500,000 to £729,000. The development sold out earlier in the summer.
- To the north east of the property is the Airfield Industrial Estate from which the site is well screened by a boundary of mature trees and foliage.
- Further east of the site is the proposed Dales Park development which will comprise a new high quality business park, new commercial units, a pub, hotel, community facilities and more than 360 homes. The link road, Harrison Way, opened earlier this year.
- The remaining surrounding area of the site is characterised by existing and proposed residential, commercial properties and green spaces.
