Property description
Astonbury Manor has proudly stood in its own beautiful grounds on the edge of Aston Village since the 17th century. The house has seen many changes over the centuries and is now luxurious apartments following conversion around 1989. Shortly after the main house was converted, a mews of houses were built within the grounds and today they offer their owners a delightful and exclusive environment in which to live.
Number 14 is an attractive, freehold, end terrace chalet style mews house with luxuriously appointed accommodation with its own lovely gardens that are set out to the front, side and rear of the house. Adjoining the garden is a courtyard at the rear in which is found the double car port and additional residents parking.
Those lucky enough to be residents of Astonbury Manor all enjoy use of the extensive, beautifully landscaped and cared for grounds that are a delight to meander through. For the more energetic there is a hard tennis court for residents use.
Aston village is surrounded by rolling countryside with many footpaths and bridleways moments away from the house. The village itself is a thriving community with a lovely church, well regarded primary school and public house.
Step inside
As one parks in the ample visitors parking area and walks up to the front of the house, you cannot help but be impressed with the setting. A front door opens into the good size hallway where stairs climb to the first floor and there is also a downstairs cloakroom/WC. The lounge is a particularly good size and enjoys a triple aspect with windows to the front and side overlooking the garden and doors opening onto the rear garden. The focal point of the room is an attractive fireplace with a wood burning stove, making this a really cozy room on a cold winters day. Adjoining the lounge is an attractively fitted kitchen/breakfast room that is well fitted with integrated appliances and enjoys a lovely outlook to the rear over the beautifully landscaped rear garden. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room with back door. The separate dining room is another room of a good size and overlooks the front garden.
Upstairs there is a spacious landing off which is a well fitted and generously sized family bathroom. The master bedroom looks out to the front and benefits from an en suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms.
