Ashurst

Peppers Farmhouse comprises a handsome and substantial country house believed to originally be of Victorian origin and substantially extended and altered during the second half of the last century. The property occupies an unspoilt, yet readily accessible rural location on the outskirts of the small village of Ashurst and with very fine views over the property's own land and countryside beyond.

The house is set within a useful area of land with the attractive large garden and private gated driveway with garaging then opening to a good range of equestrian facilities including three modern stables, fodder store, manege and adjoining paddock and with the property as a whole extending overall to approximately 4.3 acres (1.74 Ha) and with good rural hacking readily accessible from the lane and interconnected bridleways.

The house includes mellow brick and part tile hung elevations with decorative club courses and pretty leaded light windows recently redecorated in an off-white fawn colour and offset by colourful mixed climbers, herbaceous plants and specimen roses.From the front drive the front door leads into the entrance hall which in turn opens into an impressive part galleried reception hall with drinks and coat cupboards off, polished wood floor and double doors opening into the double aspect drawing room which enjoys a particularly fine outlook over the garden and land beyond and with French doors leading out thereto as well as fireplace with pretty polished wood surround.

To the other side of the hall, access to rear hall with part glazed door to the outside, cloakroom, study and utility room off which includes Kidd oil-fired boiler, Belfast sink and plumbing for washing machine. The dining room is also double aspect. The good size kitchen/breakfast/family sitting room forms the heart of the house with a smart range of fitted units with Corian worktops with cupboards and drawers below, point for dishwasher, sink unit, oil-fired Aga with separate electric unit to one side, ceramic tiled floor and thence opening up from the breakfast bar to a dining area and sitting area that directly overlooks the garden and land and with French doors to the garden to one side.
