THE PROPERTY
Upon entering the cottage, you're greeted by a generously sized sitting room featuring exposed beams and a striking inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove-perfect for cosy evenings. The natural light enhances the cottage's warm and inviting atmosphere, creating a comfortable space for relaxation.
Adjacent to the sitting room is a delightful kitchen, beautifully blending modern fittings with rustic charm. The kitchen is equipped with contemporary appliances, while terracotta flooring and exposed beams add to its cottage character. With ample space for a dining area, it's an ideal setting for everyday meals and entertaining guests.
A rear lobby provides practical storage space as well as desk area overlooking the garden, with a door providing access to the picturesque garden. The ground floor is complete with a bathroom, offering convenience for both residents and guests.
Upstairs, the cottage continues to impress with two spacious double bedrooms, each filled with character. The master bedroom is a tranquil retreat with original exposed beams and space for a home office or seating area. The second bedroom, equally charming, boasts traditional timbers and a welcoming feel. A shower room on this floor provides convenience.
Set on a generous plot, the cottage benefits from a large, well-maintained garden with mature trees and flower beds, offering a serene outdoor space. The garden provides the perfect setting for alfresco dining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The property also features off-road parking, adding convenience and rarity to this historical gem.

Ashen is also conveniently positioned for easy access to Sudbury and Braintree, making it an ideal location for commuters and families alike. With its quintessential English village charm and close-knit community, Ashen is a desirable place to call home for those who value both natural beauty and convenience.
