Upper Packington Road, Ashby-de-la-zouch

Embrace the lifestyle that living in the historic market town of Ashby offers, being able to walk into town along the many walks and pathways. A walk through the Bath Grounds in the summer is particularly pleasant for an early morning coffee in one of the many local coffee shops. With a choice of many local pubs and restaurants for a night out, a gentle stroll back is always welcome. Strategically, Ashby lies in the heart of the National Forest right in the middle of the country and is perfectly positioned for the busy commuter, with access via the M42 and M1 to many East and West Midlands towns and cities. Conkers, Moira Furnace and Hicks Lodge provide many leisure pursuits.

You approach the property across a sweeping driveway passing by an expansive front lawn culminating at a large drive/turning area and a tandem length garage beyond.

Set beneath the arched storm porch with stepped approach, you will find a beautiful original stained glass entrance door and windows to the side. This opens to reveal a light, large and welcoming feature central reception hallway with stunning original flooring underfoot.

Firstly, either side of the hallway on your left and right are two large reception rooms, equally well proportioned and both enjoying large walk-in bay windows with a pleasant leafy front aspect.

There is a third spacious reception room which also features a large walk-in bay window, currently used as an excellent formal dining room but equally ideal as a ground floor king size bedroom to match the further ground floor master set on the opposite side of the hallway, which has a lovely view over the rear garden.

The ground floor refitted shower room serves these bedrooms and is well appointed with a contemporary curved walk-in glazed shower with feature shower panelling, WC and wash hand basin.

Last and by no means least is the family breakfast kitchen with room for any size of family to gather around the central breakfast table and is beautifully fitted with a character oak faced cabinetry which wraps around the room offering heaps of storage, granite work surfaces sit on top and make an attractive compliment to the oak and are ideal to withstand the riggers of family life. There is a large Belfast style sink, space for a range style cooker and dual aspect windows allow plenty of natural light whilst a glazed door takes you out to the large westerly facing gardens.

Upstairs on the first floor, skilful conversion of the attic space has created two roomy double bedrooms, the larger of which has amazing views from its Velux window. There is a second bathroom on this floor and comprises panelled bath, WC and pedestal wash hand basin. In all, a very versatile family home.

Outside, to the rear of the property you will find there are large gardens laid to lawn which enjoy westerly aspects and have a gravelled patio area.
