Set in an exclusive and little known cul-de-sac of just five homes, this appealing detached house is ideally positioned for easy access to the town centre, the main 700 bus route within 5 minutes by foot, and easy access to numerous countryside walks nearby, including routes to Westbourne village and the harbour foreshore at Prinsted.

Available with no forward chain, Ashmead is a relatively modern home built in the mid 1990s, offering a well proportioned and spacious four bedroom, two bathroom layout extending to 1526 sq. Ft.

A canopy porch entrance with a double glazed front door opens into the generous L-shaped entrance hall, with staircase to the first floor (storage cupboard beneath), and a cloakroom. From the hallway, two sets of glazed doors, situated opposite each other, open to the sitting room and dining room. These provide the option to create a spacious open-plan feel, ideal for entertaining and larger gatherings, while also enhancing natural light levels throughout the space. A double glazed conservatory with fitted blinds adjoins the dining room, offering a pleasant garden outlook and French doors opening out to the patio. Also overlooking the garden, the kitchen/breakfast room features a comprehensive range of oak fronted cabinets with built-in appliances, as well as space for a central table and chairs. There is a separate utility room with additional storage, second sink, space for a washing machine and dryer, and a wall mounted central heating boiler.
