Description

**GUIDE PRICE £800,000 TO £825,000** Welcome to Ashmead – Space, Flexibility & Lifestyle in One Exceptional Home.
Ashmead is a versatile and spacious four-bedroom detached bungalow, complete with a self-contained annexe, all set within just over an acre of beautifully maintained grounds. Perfectly suited to families, multi-generational living, or those looking to embrace a starter equestrian lifestyle, this is a property that offers both comfort and opportunity in equal measure.
Approached via a gated entrance, the home immediately makes a strong impression. A beautifully illuminated driveway leads to extensive parking for multiple vehicles, while the well-kept lawned frontage, complete with a charming pond, creates a welcoming first impression.
One of Ashmead’s standout features is the attached self-contained two-bedroom annexe. This highly flexible space is ideal for extended family, independent living, a home office setup, or even a studio or gym—tailored entirely to your needs.
Inside the main residence, the accommodation is both practical and inviting. A spacious kitchen with breakfast area forms the heart of the home, complemented by two well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room. The open-plan living and dining area is flooded with natural light from a striking roof lantern, while a multi-fuel log burner adds warmth and character for cosy evenings. A utility room and separate WC provide added convenience, with direct access to the garden.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A triple garage offers ample storage or workshop space, while the mature gardens feature a guest or summerhouse, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Beyond, a picturesque stream leads to stables and a paddock—ideal for hobby farming or creating your own equestrian setup.
The south-facing garden backs onto open fields, providing a peaceful and private setting that truly feels like a retreat.
