Description
Aysgarth House was built in 1984 by the vendor on land that was part of the adjacent property, Charity Farm. Constructed with very much a heat saving/heat retention focus in mind, it has night storage heating, cavity wall insulation, loft insulation and double glazing and it was designed to have exposed internal brickwork in order to retain heat in the winter and keep the house cool in the warmer months.
Of red brick elevations beneath a tiled roof, the property has spacious accommodation over two floors. The entrance hall leads to a study at the front of the house overlooking the drive and beyond the staircase is the main living area of sitting room to the front, with an exposed brick fireplace, which then opens directly in to the dining room and a conservatory with terracotta flooring beyond (which was added a couple of years after the house was built). The light floods in here and it provides a super place to sit throughout the year overlooking the gardens. The kitchen can be approached from either the hall or the dining room and is fitted with a range of wall and floor mounted cabinets, an integrated double oven and hob, and has space for a large breakfast table and chairs. A useful utility room adjoins with storage, a sink, plumbing for a washing machine and access to the garden
On the first floor there are four well-proportioned bedrooms including a large principle bedroom to the front of the house with wardrobes and an en suite shower room, and a family bathroom. These bedrooms either enjoy views to the front towards the Church or to the rear over the long rear garden and land beyond, one of the four has been used in more recent times as a second sitting room.
The property is approached via a shared drive to a wide parking area for several vehicles. The established south west facing gardens are a delight, with a rear terrace beside the house, there is a lawn with a brick and flint wall along one boundary, mature fruit trees (cherry, plum, greengage and apple) and various beds incorporating a variety of mature planting. Beyond the lawn is an additional parking area and a substantial garage building (used as a workshop) with an open staircase leading to a first floor storage room built in 1995. Some useful stores have been created around the sides of this building and beyond, there is an additional area of garden, little used in recent times but with potential for vegetable patch or as an additional play area.
In all 0.22 acres.
