County’s 10 priciest properties of 2020

- By RICHARD CASTLE

DERBYSHIRE is full of sweeping countrysid­e and gorgeous scenery, with a host of stunning properties to match.

But some of the homes in the county stand out from the rest – and have sold for big money.

They range from vintage period properties to modern mansions.

And, according to the Land Registry, 19 of them sold for more than £1 million in 2020.

Topping the list was The Kirkstyles, Belper, which cost its new owners more than £2 million.

The five-bedroom period house came with a roof terrace, gym and an orangery, as well as 12 acres of land in the Amber Valley.

Across the country, over half a million home sales have been registered for 2020, Derbyshire Live writes.

Prices ranged from an eye-watering £44,278,490 for a flat in Mulberry Square, London, to just £15,000 for a property in Sunderland.
