Kilwardby Street, Ashby-De-La-Zouch, LE65

A view across Ashby towards the historic castle, a magnificent walk-in bay window and a specification rarely found in apartment living. Combining the character of a Grade II listed building with an exceptional contemporary finish, right in the heart of the town.

There is something rather special about arriving at Apartment 5. From the secure communal entrance (shared with Apartment 6) a beautiful original spiral staircase rises to the first floor, an immediate reminder that this is no ordinary apartment building.

Step inside and your eye is drawn straight towards the magnificent walk-in bay window, looking across Ashby town centre, with the castle visible on the horizon, it creates a wonderful place to sit with a coffee and watch the town come to life. The breakfast bar has been positioned to make the most of this view and gives the apartment a distinctive focal point.

The main living space combines the character of this Grade II listed building with a crisp, contemporary finish. The kitchen has been fitted to a standard rarely found in apartment living, installed by Charnwood Kitchens with cabinetry, quartz worktops and a range of integrated Miele appliances, including an oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher and fridge freezer. A utility area has additional pantry-style cupboards providing excellent storage, with plumbing discreetly incorporated for a washing machine.

Beyond the kitchen is a comfortable lounge, where an original fireplace and a large sash window bring warmth, light and period character to the room.

The apartment offers two generous double bedrooms. One is an especially versatile room with tall sash-style windows and an original fireplace, making it equally appealing as a characterful bedroom or a separate, cosy sitting room. A short set of steps leads to the principal bedroom and the beautifully finished shower room, which is fully tiled and fitted with a contemporary suite, overhead shower and separate hand attachment.

Apartment 5 forms part of the thoughtful restoration of Kilwardby House, completed in collaboration with Lychgate Homes and David Granger Architectural Design. Original architectural details have been carefully retained while the building has been adapted for modern living.

Outside, residents have use of a communal courtyard garden and the apartment benefits from an allocated parking space within the secure, electronically gated car park, with the potential for an electric vehicle charging point. There is also a separate communal bin store, while fob-controlled access and automatic lighting provide convenience throughout the shared areas. The carpark is accessed through a public car park.

Kilwardby House places you within the very heart of Ashby-de-la-Zouch. Independent shops, cafés, restaurants and public houses are all close at hand, allowing you to enjoy the freedom of leaving the car behind and becoming part of the town’s everyday life.

This is a stylish home for someone who wants more than a conventional apartment. Architectural character, an exceptional specification and a view that provides a constant connection to historic Ashby.

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING CHECKS

The cost of these checks is £25 (incl. VAT) per person, which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us issuing a memorandum of sale, directly to Hipla, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Hipla to compensate for our role in the provision of these checks.
