Property
With its origins dating back to the 16th century, Astley House sits proudly in the centre of this historic village with pleasant colour washed brick facade and under a steeply pitched plain tiled roof. Upon entry the first thing that you will notice is the generous entrance hall which feeds off to a sitting room with a feature fireplace and a large sash window to the front elevation. Bedroom 4 also feeds off the hallway and offers views to the front through a large sash window. The Kitchen has been newly fitted and set with neutral contemporary contrasting tones. There is a fitted rangemaster and useful pantry. Stairs from the kitchen lead down to to an extensive range of cellars which provide huge potential to increase your footprint of the living space and would offer a wonderful place for entertaining teenagers, a home office or cinema room. There is a further reception room in the form of a large dining hall which historically would have formed the stables. It houses a large woodburner, former mullion windows and impressive vaulted ceiling for more formal dining settings. Upstairs the property offers a spacious landing that feeds off to a newly fitted bathroom comprising of a double shower, corner bath, low level WC and sink. There two spacious double bedrooms looking out to the front of the property and a single bedroom completes the accommodation on the first floor. You may have noted on the floor plan, a set of stairs leading to the second floor, this leads to potential further accommodation as due to the steep pitch on the roof there is more than ample head height. The current owner have architects drawings to this effect which could be made available on request.
