Family home with superb views over open fields and woodland. Offering good sized living space in a very desirable village.
Ashmount House was originally built as the police house for the village and was converted into a private residence around 25 years ago. With good sized reception areas and bedroom space, the house itself is set back from the road behind a gated frontage with a large parking and turning area leading to the garage.
The entrance hallway and lounge have parquet wood block flooring with a guest cloakroom under the stairs. The main reception area is to the front which is a double sized room with a fireplace having an inset multi-fuel wood burning stove. This room enjoys a lovely view over the countryside to the front. Double doors lead to the dining room, which in turn opens onto the kitchen and rear garden.
The kitchen has a range of free-standing bespoke units with space for a range-style cooker and plumbing for the usual appliances. Adjacent to this is a utility/boot room which has return access to the hallway and the integral garage.
Moving upstairs, there are four decent sized bedrooms, with the principal bedroom having a modern en suite bathroom with a separate shower. The family bathroom/WC serves the remaining bedrooms.
On the outside, the rear garden is neatly landscaped with a wonderful selection of mature shrubs, trees and flowerbed borders. A meandering path leads from the patio to the rear where you'll find a garden shed, utility area and custom built workshop. A pergola provides a shaded seating area. There is side access leading back to the front if required.

I love the view over the fields and the woods to the front of this house, it provides year round interest and is very much sought after. Sidehill Woods themselves are filled with bluebells in the spring. The house has been lovingly maintained over the years and is ideal for a family looking to enjoy practical living space in a most popular village.
