Description

Aston House is an attractive and spacious family home built in the 1990s and extended since. The property provides spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors ideal for formal entertaining and family living. There is also a large attic room which could be converted subject to the necessary building and planning regulations. Of particular note are the delightful south-west facing gardens which surround the property, providing a wonderful backdrop with year round interest. The house is well located within this popular private road and only approx. 0.8 miles from the station and approx. 0.6 miles from the town centre.

The impressive double height entrance hall leads to the well-proportioned reception rooms which comprises a drawing room with brick inglenook fireplace, a sitting room with bay window to the front, and a dining room and garden room both with a charming outlook over the rear garden.

The generously proportioned kitchen/breakfast room is comprehensively fitted with a range of wall and base units with granite work surfaces and twin inset stainless steel sinks and integral appliances. The breakfast room has double doors opening onto the rear terrace and features an attractive coal effect gas stove with granite hearth.

The adjoining utility room is fitted with additional storage cupboards and space for appliances and leads to a cloakroom and garage.

A study and second cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Arranged over the first floor are five well-proportioned bedrooms, all with fitted or built-in wardrobes. Three of these bedrooms have en suite facilities, one of which features a corner Jacuzzi bath.

A well-appointed family bathroom completes the accommodation on this floor.

A fixed paddle ladder rises to the spacious attic space which is boarded and could be converted to provide additional accommodation, subject to the necessary planning and building regulations.

To the front of the house is a gravel carriage driveway which provides parking and leads to the integral double garage. The front garden has areas of lawn interspersed with established trees and shrubs, providing privacy.

To the rear is a generous paved terrace stretching the width of the house providing an ideal area for al fresco entertaining, and to one side is a brick barbeque, flanked by well stocked brick edged beds. The immaculate shaped lawns have a south-westerly aspect and continue the length of the garden with deep herbaceous and shrub beds. There are impressive established trees, both deciduous and evergreen, including acers and cedar trees. Within the garden is a pond with aquatic planting and there is an attractive wrought iron arbour with climbing plants including honeysuckle. To the rear is a compost area and a garden shed.
