## Description

Derby House, Eccleston

Set within an exclusive private enclave centred around a beautifully restored 19th-century mill, Derby House is an exceptional architect-designed residence that brings together striking contemporary architecture, cutting-edge technology and an outstanding level of finish.

Constructed by Vanguard Developers, specialists in creating distinctive individual homes, this remarkable four-bedroom property has been carefully designed to maximise natural light, space and its connection with the surrounding countryside. The result is a truly unique home that delivers modern country living at its finest.

Steeped in local history, this site was once home to Eccleston Tile Works, established around 1841–1842 for the Earl of Derby’s Knowsley estate. Designed by renowned Scottish tile maker Robert Boyle, the works were described in 1843 as the largest of their kind in the three kingdoms, capable of producing two million drainage tiles a year. These tiles helped transform thousands of acres of estate farmland, giving the site an important place in the area’s agricultural heritage. The surviving former works building provides a distinctive link to this fascinating past. It remained in operation until around 1912. Today, the surviving former works building offers a distinctive reminder of Eccleston’s rich agricultural and industrial heritage.

Derby House showcases stunning interior design by award winning interior designer Oliver Steer and beautifully crafted bespoke cabinetry by AS Living, combining timeless design with exceptional attention to detail. The impressive in-frame Shaker kitchen features solid walnut accents, a generous central island, an Italian Bertazzoni range cooker, Bosch appliances and a Quooker boiling-water tap, with a concealed walk-through to the utility room. Matching bespoke media cabinetry and illuminated wine storage for approximately 150 bottles, enclosed behind Crittall-style glazing, add further distinction. The luxurious principal suite completes the interior, featuring a bespoke walnut-accented dressing room, full wall panelling and a striking timber-clad coffered ceiling.

A separate living room provides a more intimate space to relax, while the exceptional attention to detail continues throughout the home with solid-core internal doors, premium ironmongery and a striking feature staircase incorporating a bespoke under-stairs wine store.

The first floor offers four beautifully proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite positioned to take full advantage of panoramic countryside views. Luxurious bathrooms have been finished with high-specification porcelain tiling, frameless walk-in showers and a statement freestanding bath, creating a refined, spa-inspired finish.

Technology and energy efficiency have been integral to the design. With an EPC B rating, the property features an air source heat pump, integrated photovoltaic solar panels and zoned underfloor heating across both floors. Starlink high-speed internet, smart lighting, 4K CCTV and electrically operated entrance gates further enhance this exceptional specification.

Externally, landscaped gardens and a porcelain patio provide an elegant extension of the living accommodation and an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining. A substantial double-width garage is fully insulated and plastered, providing excellent secure parking while offering the versatility to create a private gym, studio or leisure space.

From its striking architecture and countryside setting to its exceptional specification and technology, Derby House represents a rare opportunity to acquire a genuinely individual new home in one of the area's most desirable locations.
