Ashridge Drive, Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire, DN35 9NN


Description
Ashridge Drive, is in a well sought after area of Cleethorpes. It is a charming, traditional detached house with Georgian style bay windows. This lovely property has been extended recently & undergone an extensive renovation programme. Most importantly, the property is a well maintained, good, solid structure, primed and ready for new owners to make it their own as all of the essential work has been completed. This has been thoughtfully achieved, and to an exceptionally high standard, with quality fixtures & fittings. This wonderful family home is light & bright and has a good, welcoming energy.

The entrance porch is a practical space which serves as a heat trap, therefore keeping the property warmer during the winter months. Also enhancing this desirable property is a natural limestone flooring - “Normandy Grey” that leads the eye down the spacious entrance hall, where a cloakroom awaits with a convenient WC. & hand wash basin. There is also another useful entrance to the side of the property.

The living room is an attractive area as the bay window allows in a lot of light and the high ceiling gives it an airy feeling. The Welsh, oak, solid wood flooring (same as upstairs) looks stunning and allows the property a period feel, providing a foundation whereby both contemporary and antique furniture can happily sit side by side. A natural black slate hearth awaits a fire-place of your own personal preference (period or modern) – a fire-place that is able to burn both wood and coal due to the external brick chimney breast. Furthermore, this substantial sized room has real plaster coving, which was fitted by a Master of the Guild, who is an expert in his craft. A dimmer switch allows the user to change the ambience of the room during the day/evening & the main light is also complemented by a period feature ceiling rose.

Venturing upstairs is a large landing, which could easily be used as an office space or as an ideal location for an Armoire (a useful piece of furniture for storage of blankets, sheets, towels, quilts etc) .There are three generously sized double bedrooms, with unique & charismatic styles of panelling, plaster coving, picture rails etc; The stunning oak, solid wood antique style flooring runs seamlessly throughout as it has no divides between door thresholds and the antique style “Ancona” radiators with their traditional style valves therefore complement it beautifully.

Georgian & Edwardian style panelling from The English Panelling Company dresses some of the walls. The shower room is light and bright with large marble effect floor-tiles and a traditional style suite made by Burlington in the UK. The large shower enclosure has a traditional style exposed shower valve, boasting a large rain lilly that is ideal for an energizing power shower. The wall tiles are handmade by Marlborough in the UK. The extractor fan has an external outlet and a separate operating light pulley. Attractive wall lights with lamp shades give the Shower room a cosy ambience in the evening/night-time.

The kitchen/diner is a large space which is ideal for entertaining. It has boundless potential e.g. the possibility of creating a “snug” area & to install a small wood burning stove. The newly fitted kitchen comes complete with an oven/hob/electrics connected for an extractor fan. There are a multitude of floor and wall sockets and two dimmer switches in this room. French doors lead out to the rear garden. Two external patio wall lights are operated from within the kitchen. Fortunately, there are no houses to this side of the property, therefore which is an allowing it an attractive view of nature all year.

This property is further complemented by ample off-road parking for a multitude of vehicles. It is ideal and suitable for housing a caravan or motorhome. It has a large detached garage for added convenience and storage. The house is conveniently accessed straight from the main road, which is so useful during the winter months as you don’t have to worry about slipping and sliding on a back road as the main road is always gritted. The driveway, although looks unfinished is actually ready/prepared for the new owners choice of gravel, concrete or paving tiles etc.; Again, this allows new owners to have a new driveway of their own personal choice. The owner was evidently choosing gravel for the rustic, country look. However, someone else may prefer something quite different. The owner therefore believed that it was a pointless exercise to complete the driveway and then for the new owner to change it at a later date.

The little copse of trees next to the house, gives the property a lovely rural feel. It is a protected space and a nature conserve for wild flowers and little beasties. It is a vital “Green Space” for local wildlife as it attracts a multitude of butterflies and bees that are essential for pollination. The local Council are currently observing what wild species of flowers etc.; are growing there.

The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a good space for a seating area, large shed or jacuzzi/BBQ entertaining space. New fencing was erected in the rear garden and the driveway. Also, a new brick wall & pillars were built in the front of the property. This fantastic home is cool, bright & breezy in the summertime and warm and cosy in the wintertime as modern comforts abound in this house. It features new UPVC double glazing, a new Gas central heating system and a top of the range Vogue boiler, to ensure a warm and energy efficient environment.

This property has also been equipped with a CCTV monitoring and recording software system that is activated upon movement and records 24/7. This facility has a TV monitor whereby it allows the user to zoom in an out & to investigate any particular time period etc; There is also security lighting which is activated by movement. This useful feature can be turned on or off & has an override switch upstairs and one downstairs.

Furthermore, this well cared for and loved home has had a new roof & new loft insulation. It has been equipped with easy access loft ladders and a partially boarded out area with lighting in the roof space. This house has also undergone a full electrical re-wire. It has had a new outside water meter fitted and the gas and electricity boxes repositioned on the external walls for ease of access.

Finally, this desirable property is now looking for a new owner/s who will recognise the amount of work and appreciate the standard of work which has been spent upon it. There has been much love that has been poured into this house to make it into the wonderful home as it stands today.
