An impressive Georgian style, five bedroom home occupying mature south west facing grounds in excess of 0.8 of an acre, enjoying a secluded location, yet within a short distance from the village centre.
Constructed in 2002 in the grounds of the original Ashwells House, the property presents a classic mellow red brick elevation with a portico central front door and symmetrical sash windows to either side and above, set beneath a slate roof relieved by dual lead sash dormer windows.
Ashwells offers well-proportioned accommodation throughout, together with a high degree of versatility, making it ideal for families. The elegant reception hall has an oak staircase ascending to the first floor, whilst off the hall is a cloakroom and useful storage cupboard. To the front of the property is the study which has its own external access providing potential for those who work from home and client visits. The sitting room is an extremely generous size, spanning the full depth of the property and offers an open plan aspect into the dining room, whilst French doors lead out to the sun terrace. The kitchen/breakfast room is beautifully appointed, with granite work surfaces and tiled flooring, complemented by a range of built-in appliances incorporating an American style fridge/freezer, coffee machine, microwave, warming drawer and steamer, dishwasher, two ovens, 5-ring hob with extraction system above, complete with central island/breakfast bar. The utility room is adjacent to the kitchen with a further range of storage units which allow space and plumbing for all the necessary utility appliances, and a back door to the side of the house.
The first-floor landing offers views to the front with doors opening out onto a balcony which enjoys the morning sun. There are four bedrooms, with the principal suite located to the rear of the property, enjoying pleasant views over the rear garden with French doors leading to another balcony, ideally suited for an area of relaxation. There is an impressive ensuite with jacuzzi bath, shower cubicle, twin wash hand basins, low level WC and bidet. The guest bedroom also has an ensuite shower room and there is a separate family bathroom.
The second floor is currently set up as self-contained living accommodation, including a large bedroom/living area with bathroom and kitchenette, which would make an excellent suite for teenagers, relatives, or an au-pair. Set back behind electrically operated double gates, the property is approached by a front courtyard providing parking for many cars and a detached double garage with an electric up and over door. A charming flint and brick building sits at the eastern boundary which provides potential for a variety of uses. Several mature trees shield the front of the property providing a high degree of privacy and rear access is afforded on both sides with the eastern aspect having large gates enabling vehicular access to the rear.
The mature south and west facing gardens incorporate a stunning full width stone raised terrace, which provides stunning views of the grounds and is accessed via the principal reception room and kitchen, making it perfect for entertaining. Steps lead down to the lawned gardens which are interspersed with mature bushes and bordered by a small woodland area and cobbled pathways leading to the foot of the garden. There are delightful views of the conservation area beyond which provides a haven for wildlife.
