Halls are delighted with instruction to offer Ashdale House, Higher Penley, for sale by private treaty.

Ashdale House is a substantial and recently renovated, detached, four bedroom country property boasting a wealth of versatile internal accommodation, a detached studio/workspace, and ample driveway parking, situated within a plot extending to over 3 acres located within the rural hamlet of Higher Penley.

The property, which has been carefully converted from what was an educational facility into an imposing residential home now offering possibilities for multi-generational living, comprises, on the ground floor, an Entrance Hall, Bedroom, Shower Room, Kitchen/Breakfast Room, Utility Room, Dining Room, Living Room, and Study, together with, to the first floor, three further Bedrooms (two benefitting from En-Suites), and a Kitchen. The First Floor enjoys an independent secondary access.

The property is situated within ground extending, in all, to approximately 3.27 acres, comprising established gardens, a number of patio areas, vegetables patches, ample driveway parking, and a significant area of grass, the latter offering excellent potential for use as a paddock or for extension of the more formal gardens.

The property also features a number of external buildings, most notably a detached studio/workspace (approx 6.6m x 6m) with four externally accessed shower rooms, which offers further potential for conversion into an annexe (LA consent permitting) or for use in connection with a buyer's home business (LA consent permitting). Also included are, briefly, two stables with tack room, a number of greenhouses, a brick-built store, and various timber sheds/stores.

The sale of Ashdale House does, therefore, offer the decidedly rare opportunity for buyers to acquire a well presented and substantial four bedroom, detached property benefitting from a number of particularly useful outbuildings and with generous external space, situated in a delightful rural setting.
