Country house with annexe and 13.1 acres* in the commuter belt.
Description
The house, known as Ash Farm, has an excellent combination of property, land and outbuildings in a highly accessible yet rural situation. The house has been designed to take advantage of its situation with the principal reception rooms and bedrooms overlooking the grounds and countryside beyond. The centrepiece of the house the beautifully appointed kitchen by Nicholas Anthony, which includes a large island and is filled with a range of good quality appliances. The paddocks and stables are immediately adjoining the formal gardens, post and railed with CCTV cameras.
The house is approach via double doors into a fine reception hall which provides a lovely vista at the rear over the property's gardens and terrace, and at one end of the room is space for a study area. Adjoining is a cloakroom, a separate dining room and a drawing room. This room has a triple aspect with lovely countryside and garden views and two sets of double doors opening onto the terrace. At the centre of the property, running the full depth, is a sitting and garden room. This room features a stone ornate fireplace providing a focal point and is open plan to a beautiful garden room which is air-conditioned and enjoys panoramic elevated views over the gardens, the property's paddocks and countryside beyond. The kitchen boasts an exceptional range of units anchored around a split-level island/breakfast bar with a number of Gaggenau appliances including a full-height fridge and freezer, a temperature-controlled wine fridge, a hob, ovens and a cooker hood. Adjacent is a large utility/boot room and a second cloakroom.
On the first floor the origins of the property become apparent with some exposed timbers and the landing also provides for excellent storage. There are four individual bedrooms. The principal bedroom is comprehensively fitted with wardrobes and a dressing table and includes a good quality en suite bath/shower room. Bedroom two also has a good quality en suite shower room and an extensive range of fitted furniture with further wardrobes fitted to the two other bedrooms. The principal bathroom has been refitted by the current owners and includes mood lighting, a shower cubicle, a bath tub and underfloor heating.
Outside
Ash Farm is approached through a set of substantial metal electric double gates set on brick piers opening into a long drive, passing the front of the property to an extensive parking area between the house and the annexe.
Detached annexe
This building is not formalised for use as ancillary accommodation. However, it has been fitted with a modern kitchen with built-in appliances, a living area, a bedroom, an en suite shower room and used as guest accommodation for many years.
Gardens
The gardens have been designed and professionally landscaped to provide a picturesque setting in the countryside. The gardens are elevated from the adjoining paddocks and countryside and therefore enjoy long views over the fields. Behind the house is a substantial wrap-around flagstone terrace ideal for al fresco dining, edged with box hedging and partly retained by a low brick wall which separates and adjoins the garden pond. There are large expanses of lawns with island beds, a circular garden and a covered trellis with herringbone brick path under. Within the gardens is a beautiful Breeze House with power, light and heating - ideal for entertaining. Adjoining is a part-brick/part-timber frame barbecue stand - again with power and light - overlooking the gardens. There are two substantial paddocks immediately adjoining the gardens - the first paddock behind the garden includes a cluster of stables and a hay barn which are in need of some modernisation. This block is post and rail fenced and has the security of a high-level CCTV camera as does the adjoining 9 acre paddock, again which is post and rail enclosed and has a frontage to Wyatts Green Road.
*In all about 13.1 acres. Please see site plan. The area in blue is included but currently in the title of the neighbouring property.
