About
Welcome to Appledore, a Mature Detached Bungalow in the highly desirable, small village of Ashley on the outskirts of Box with excellent access to Bath, set in mature gardens, with the property sitting centrally in the plot with a lovely south-facing aspect.
The property will require some updating throughout, and was built originally as a three-bedroom bungalow, but over the years has been extended and improved to the owner's requirements, to include a double detached garage that was converted into a workshop for woodworking.
The living accommodation comprises a generously sized entrance hall that leads to all rooms, with ample space for all your storage needs.
The living room is located at the front with a bay window and a feature fireplace with a wood-burning stove, while to the rear is a large kitchen breakfast room that has a wonderful south-facing aspect and benefits from a gas-fired Aga plus a door to a cloak/utility room.
There are two double bedrooms plus a single bedroom, and a large family bathroom.
Moving outside, there is a large sweeping driveway giving ample parking, with some mature trees giving a large amount of privacy, plus well-stocked floral borders.
To the rear, the garden is also very mature with a variety of mature, well-stocked borders and a large patio immediately to the rear of the property.
As mentioned to the side, at the rear is a very large former double garage that will have so many uses, which has been insulated and currently has a wood-burning stove installed, plus power and light.
The property is being brought to the market with No Onward Chain Situation - Ashley is a small and picturesque hamlet just outside Box to the East of Georgian Bath.
