Kates Lane, Ashdon

The Accommodation 

Appletree House is an attractive four-bedroom, two bathroom detached property, tucked away along quiet Kates Lane in the ever-popular village of Ashdon. Surrounded by open countryside yet just a short stroll to the village pub and highly regarded primary school, the setting offers a perfect balance of rural charm and everyday convenience. The property has been a much-loved family home for over 30 years and now presents an exciting opportunity for sympathetic updating. The accommodation extends to around 1,830 sq. ft. and is arranged to provide generous and versatile family living.

On the ground floor, a welcoming reception hall with turning staircase creates an immediate sense of space and leads through to the principal reception rooms. The sitting room is a particularly elegant space, centred around a traditional fireplace and with large sash-style windows drawing in plenty of natural light and providing views over the gardens. Across the hall, the formal dining room is well-proportioned and ideal for entertaining, while a further family room offers flexibility as a snug, playroom or study.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen/breakfast room is a bright and sociable space with ample room for a dining table. Double doors open directly to the terrace and gardens beyond, making it perfect for everyday family living and summer entertaining. The ground floor is further served by a useful utility room and cloakroom.

The first floor is equally generous, with a light and spacious landing leading to four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys the benefit of its own en suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are all well-sized and served by a family bathroom. The layout offers excellent scope to reconfigure if desired, creating a home perfectly tailored to modern family life.

Appletree House sits within a wonderful mature plot. A sweeping gravel driveway offers ample parking and leads to a detached double garage with a versatile room above – ideal for a studio, hobbies space or potential home office. The gardens are a true feature: once a working orchard, they are now beautifully stocked with a variety of fruit trees, shrubs and colorful planting, providing a tranquil backdrop and plenty of space for outdoor living. A gate to the rear offers direct access into the village.
