walton on thames KT12 1HW

Tastefully blending late 1920's character with a hint of the earlier "Arts and Crafts" architecture and carefully modernised to retain much of the original charm. A lovely large plot combined with five bedrooms and family orientated living space create an excellent property. Only a short walk to mainline services.

Property Profile Ashley Road and the neighbouring Ashley Park both have their origins back to the 1920's. At this time, the earlier "Arts and Crafts" movement still carried an architectural influence throughout the 1920's era and many of the distinct design features provide a timeless appeal.

Another very clear advantage of this property was the generosity of land available at that time, creating sizeable frontage and a deep rear garden.

Internally, "Churston Cottage" has remained very authentic, reflecting its roots throughout the accommodation including original fireplaces and joinery. Nonetheless, a comprehensive modernisation programme during our clients ownership has catered very well for modern family requirements.

From a large entrance-hall most of the ground-floor rooms can be accessed providing the option of formal and informal entertaining spaces. The living room and dining room both make a lasting impression, striking an excellent balance between an intimate and cosy environment, but at the same time could absorb large numbers of people when required. An earlier extension has increased the ground-floor footprint and is currently used as a garden room and study, making the most of the long vista down the full length of the garden. Further ground-floor accommodation includes a fully fitted kitchen-breakfast room designed around a central-island with granite work-surfaces, solid oak units and integrated appliances. More recently the guest w.c has been re-fitted and the addition of a very large utility room providing further plumbing facilities and ample storage is a welcome alteration.

From the entrance-hall an oak staircase leads to the first-floor, where five bedrooms can be found alongside a family bathroom - again completely renovated - and a separate w.c.
