About this property

  • Found in the small village of Five Ashes and benefitting from four paddocks extending to about 1.06 acres (while the full boundary extending to about 1.34 acres in total), Ashlea is a free flowing four bedroom, two bathroom family home, with two stables, a tack room and a double garage, offering an opportunity for multiple uses, subject to all relevant necessary consents.

    Situated on Tunbridge Wells Road, Ashlea is approximately 11.6 miles south of Tunbridge Wells, a historic spa town located about thirty miles south of London, surrounded by countryside and offering a popular base for commuters. The property is approached via a tarmac driveway, which was resurfaced in 2018, sweeping past the house and leading to a double garage and stables/paddocks beyond. Five bar gates provide access into each paddock.

    Ashlea is set behind mature evergreen hedging providing screening from the road as well as a charming outlook from both the dual aspect sitting room and dining room. The sitting room enjoys a wood burning stove with fitted cabinets and shelves above to both sides, and the dining room boasts a delightful bay window and a decorative feature fireplace.

    The well appointed kitchen is fiitted with solid wooden cabinetry topped with granite work surfaces, providing ample storage and preparation space. There is a pantry fitted with shelving providing further useful storage. Integrated appliances include a microwave, oven and ceramic hob, while space is offered for a fridge freezer and a dishwasher. The useful utility cupboard provides space for both a washing machine and a tumble dryer. The large porch opens to the WC completing the ground floor accommodation.

    The first floor is home to four bedrooms, three of which are doubles and two benefit from fitted wardrobes. The bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom and a separate shower room with a sink basin and WC. The loft provides a flexible space that can be arranged to suit, subject to all relevant consents and permissions.

There is such a great amount of outdoor space here, whilst still having a manageable family home! I love the opportunities it could provide.
