A thoroughly charming 5 bedroom grade 2 listed house measuring circa 2000 square feet, occupying a large corner plot with a detached barn, gardens, and a double garage.
A remarkable and substantial family home offering impressive and surprisingly light living space throughout, with a number of wonderful features including panelled doors, an elegant staircase, and a charming window seat on the first floor landing.
The property itself is mainly weatherboarded and sits behind a quintessential picket fence, the accommodation comprises of five bedrooms, four reception rooms, two bathrooms, and although now requiring some general updating, it is in our opinion well presented throughout allowing a new owner to move straight in and create a fabulous home that they can enjoy for many years to come.
The main house is largely detached with a smaller portion to the rear of the home attached to the neighbouring cottage, the large corner plot extends to double the width of the property and comprises of gardens, a detached double garage with plenty of further parking, and an interesting barn to the rear with planning granted under reference no PA/2022/2021 for conversion to ancillary accommodation. This presents an exciting opportunity for someone seeking multigenerational housing or perhaps looking to run their business from home, though the previous owners have received a consistent and considerable income by renting the sections of the barn as individual storage facilities and this could continue to be an option.
The phrase ‘a rare opportunity’ can sometimes be overused, but this is a unique combination of a versatile and characterful family home close to good schools and amenities, alongside ample external space with clear development potential.
Willesborough remains one of the more popular and established residential locations within Ashford, lying to the south of the town. This property is located just off of Church Road set back slightly from the road approximately 3 miles from the town centre, International railway station and William Harvey Hospital.
Within Willesborough there is both primary and secondary school options, easy access to Junction 10 of the M20 and good proximity to supermarkets and a parade of local shops. Surrounding Ashford there are many wonderful villages and plenty of public footpaths for keen walkers. The great outdoors is almost a stone’s throw away, which is another feature that contributes to Willesborough’s enduring popularity.
