Nestled in the heart of Stalybridge, "The Ashes" stands as a testament to centuries gone by. This Grade II listed property, believed to have been built in 1712 and steeped in local folklore, offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history while indulging in modern luxury. As one of Stalybridge's oldest properties, it bears the weight of time and the echoes of Bonnie Prince Charlie's visit during the Jacobite rebellion of 1745. Listed at £900,000, The Ashes seamlessly blends historical significance with opulent living.
Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by the imposing yet inviting entrance vestibule, marked by an arched solid oak door. Step inside, and the grandeur of this three-story residence unfolds before your eyes, boasting a remarkable 3,700 square feet of living space. The original natural coursed stone façade is a testament to the enduring craftsmanship of the past, and the Grade II listing adds to its unique charm.
The ground floor seamlessly melds the old and new. The lounge, graced with exposed beams and a stone fireplace, opens into a modern kitchen that features cottage-style units, a central island with a wine cooler, and contemporary appliances. Across the hallway lies a lounge/diner that's perfect for hosting grand gatherings. If you crave an intimate evening, the bespoke bar beckons with its charm and convenience.
Descend to the basement, and you'll discover a hallway leading to a cloakroom and utility room, both impeccably finished with modern amenities and stylish design. Practicality meets luxury here.
The first floor is a haven of comfort and elegance. The master bedroom, complete with a dressing room and a sumptuous four-piece bathroom suite, embodies luxury living. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack and Jill en-suite, exuding timeless class and practicality.
Continue your journey to the second floor, where you'll find a study/landing area adorned with a unique circular window. Two more bedrooms, one featuring a freestanding roll-top bath, offer a touch of opulence rarely seen in properties of this vintage.
Outside, the property boasts a double garage and a block-paved driveway with ample parking. The landscaped gardens surround the property, offering a picturesque setting for outdoor gatherings. Alongside a fully functional bar, a spacious paved entertaining area, complete with a stainless steel barbecue and oven, invites you to savor 'Al Fresco' dining in style.
Yet, what truly sets The Ashes apart is its historical significance. In 1745, during the Jacobite rebellion, Bonnie Prince Charlie and his troops found refuge and supplies at The Ashe. Legend has it that he directed his troops from the round window atop the front facade, adding a touch of historical intrigue to this venerable residence.
In conclusion, The Ashes offers more than just luxurious living; it offers a chance to own a piece of history. This remarkable property seamlessly melds the past with the present, providing a unique opportunity for discerning buyers. Don't miss the chance to make this historic gem your own and become a part of Stalybridge's rich tapestry.
