Union Passage, Ashby-de-la-Zouch

Location, location, location! Looking to move to a spot close to town and its many amenities? Then this house is hard to beat as it lies tucked away just off Market Street with a pedestrian only approach. It is a truly versatile house which could suit a buyer struggling to find a bungalow due to its excellent living space, having a large double bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor. This bedroom has also been used as a separate dining room in the past for those only needing one bedroom and looking to use it in more of a traditional two storey fashion. A flexible property indeed! All this and the property is offered with the benefit of no upward chain.

Embrace the lifestyle that living in the historic market town of Ashby offers, being able to walk into town along the many walks and pathways to a bustling high street filled with coffee shops, boutiques, restaurants and bars is one of its many joys. The famous butchers, Taylors, has queues around the block at the weekends, and who can say no to a pizza and cocktail at Zamanis or a trip to The Tap at No 76 on an evening. A walk through the Bath Grounds is always pleasant, whatever the time of year; in the Summer the thwack of Willow on Leather can be heard here on Sunday afternoon and is a popular event for a family picnic. All this, more and of course the wonderful historic Ashby de la Zouch Castle. Strategically, Ashby lies in the heart of the National Forest, right in the middle of the country, and is perfectly positioned for the busy commuter, with access via the M42 and M1 to many East and West Midlands towns and cities. Conkers, Moira Furnace and Hicks Lodge provide many leisure pursuits.

Accommodation – The property sits back off Market Street with a pedestrian only approach, tucked away behind screening conifer hedging with a central gate and pathway approach where you find yourself standing at the entrance door for 4 Union Passage. This opens to reveal a reception hall with staircase leading off and useful storage cupboard beneath. To your right is the first of two reception rooms, this large room has been used as a dining room in the past and currently utilised as a ground floor bedroom with front aspect.

Also off the hall you will find a well proportioned kitchen equipped with a range of shaker style base and wall mounted cabinets which wrap around two sides of the room with roll top work surfaces, integral gas hob with extractor hood above and oven beneath plus spaces for a washing machine, dishwasher, under counter fridge and freezer. A uPVC door leads you out to the rear garden.
Lying adjacent to the kitchen is the second reception room, a well proportioned living room which has the benefit of French double doors out to the rear garden and a feature fireplace lies at the focal point of the room.

The property has the unusual benefit of a ground floor bathroom fitted with a modern white suite comprising bath with shower mixer taps, pedestal wash hand basin and WC along with complementary tiling to the walls. This in combination with the ground floor bedroom makes an ideal bungalow style property for those with such a requirement.

Return to the hall and climb to the stairs to the first floor having a study landing with a rear facing dormer window having recess for a small desk, bureau etc. The bedroom on this floor is a superb size having the benefit of built in wardrobes, a front facing window and a modern en suite bathroom fitted with a panel bath with shower mixer taps, pedestal wash hand basin, WC, ladder style radiator and feature tiling to two walls.
