This house really will suit all, whether you’re embarking on a difficult
downsize, or have a family and looking for something that you can move
straight in to, but are possibly looking for opportunity to grow into further,
well there's most definitely scope to do so here at Ashridge, a wonderful
detached home in the heart of the lovely village of Ashley. Sitting in a very
nice sized plot of decent front and rear gardens, you could quite easily
create more space and bedrooms without compromising on the outside space at
all. It started life as a four bedroom detached house and could quite easily
be that again by simply adding a stud wall back in, but the current vendors
took this out, with the correct permission might I add, to make what suited
them thus creating a very large master bedroom suit. But if all you need is
three bedrooms, then you will be very pleased with the hotel suite - like room
with an equally large en - suite. I realise i’ve started this introduction to
this fabulous house, upside down so i’ll continue on this first floor with a
further double bedroom and a good sized single benefiting from a fitted
wardrobe. The family bathroom has been modernise, as have most things
throughout the house, so you find a contemporary suite comprising bath, with
shower over, sink and w. c to meet all the families needs. Now let’s head
downstairs where you will be greeted with the most loveliest of entrances,
spacious with a pretty Minton style flooring and doors leading off the several
spaces. The first a cloakroom with W. C and sink, the next is a cupboard for
your coats and shoes, another takes you through to the integral double garage
which in turn offers another door providing access to the rear garden. Back in
the hallway you’ll find the study directly in front of you which is filled
with an abundance of light with a large window and door with the wonderful
view and access to the very pretty rear garden. The final door from the
hallway takes you through to the hub of the house which is the kitchen/diner
and living room. This room makes me think of children running around trying to
lick the spoon that parents or Nanny has been using to stir the baking mixture
with. The very large aga to the end of the kitchen is a spectacular addition
to this wonderful space, with cupboards and storage either side of it and a
sink inset onlooking to the gorgeous, private front gardens! If you had a
blindfold unveiled stood right by the kitchen sink, you’d be forgiven for
thinking that this was your back garden, with its very generous size, luscious
greenery enveloping around it and patio area to catch just some of the
wonderful sunshine. To access this you would simply pop out through the French
doors from the dining area or there’s a gate from the driveway leading to it.
But we continue with the house and before we head into the lounge you’ll
notice the cutest spot to sit and read a book tucked under the stairs, a
bespokely fitted window style seat, but an under stair seat instead! Grab a
nice coffee or drink of choice and take some time for yourself. Next is the
lounge which is another very generous room which features a brick chimney
breast and a very contemporary clear view log burning stove then huge sliding
glass doors open up into the conservatory which completes the ground floor.
This space once again is a tranquil spot for you to sit and enjoy the
sensational private rear gardens. So let’s head out and explore this
exceptional outside space. First of all there’s a driveway that comfortably
fits two large cars on and directly in front is the double garage which has an
electric up and over door. Past the front doors is a little gate which takes
you through to the front rear garden which we spoke about earlier, then a side
access path leads you down to the rear garden which will honestly have you all
very excited. The first section is for the gardeners where there are raised
beds for growing veggies and a large potting shed behind which will suit the
keenest of green fingers out there. There’s also a patio area, perfect for
barbecuing, then a lawn to the centre surrounded and complemented by an
abundance of greenery and colour and finally you’ll find a decked area which
is just right for the evening sun, also sitting and dining with friends and
family. It really is a garden and house for all ages and so we’re super
excited to present to you Ashridge. Call the Eccleshall office today to book
your viewing on this wonderful home.
