Description

Immaculately presented to a very high standard, Ashwood is a brand-new home finished in 2024. It’s the ideal family home, with ample space over three floors and a great setting in an area that’s popular with families, with great road links and close proximity to schools and nurseries. The house has been built to an exacting specification by Welby Homes, with beautifully appointed interiors throughout and premium fixtures such as CAT 6 cabling, low voltage LED lighting, porcelain tiling to the ground floor and the bath and shower rooms.

A highlight is the open plan living space on the ground floor, which enjoys excellent natural light due to its use of glazing. The room incorporates dining and family areas as well as the fabulous kitchen, which is fitted with a wine fridge, Bora induction hob and a range of Siemens integrated appliances. The floor-to-ceiling glazed doors can be opened to the garden, allowing a generous space for entertaining. There is also a separate sitting room with an inset for a fireplace; a cloakroom area; and a WC. Upstairs there is a principal bedroom with dressing room and en suite shower room, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor, and two further bedrooms and a shower room on the second floor. All of the bedrooms benefit from built-in storage.

Outside
Ashwood is situated just off the popular Wycombe Road, with access to local footpaths at the end of Gypsy Lane. The house has a shared entrance with its attached neighbour, with ample off-street parking on the generous resin bound driveway. With its oak-framed porch, partially tile-hung elevations complete with date stone and attractive landscaping, this house has an upscale appearance that sets it apart from its neighbours, though blends well with the Edwardian homes in the area.

The west-facing rear garden is enclosed by wooden panel fencing and there is a courtyard area to the side, with access from the front via a side gate; a generous paved terrace accessed from the living area by glazed doors; and a good-size lawn with great potential for further landscaping.
