Stanton, Ashbourne

Stanton is a wonderful village in which to live with an active friendly community, where the village bus shelter serves as a focal point for the community to exchange home grown produce and raise funds for the village hall, which itself has a busy events committee and provides a gathering place for locals, bringing villagers together for numerous social events. The nearby market towns of Ashbourne and Uttoxeter offer a wide range of amenities whilst the Duncombe Arms at Ellastone and The Royal Oak at Mayfield are two well known local pubs worth a visit. This home offers the opportunity for flexible family living, working from home or even an annex for a dependant relative if desired. All set within the heart of the village.
