Ashgates Lodge is a substantial, well-appointed detached house set on a very large plot at the edge of Peatling Magna. The property offers approximately 3,600 sq ft of flexible living including a self-contained two‑bed annexe — ideal for multi‑generational living, long‑term guest accommodation or rental income. Features such as electric gated access, double garage with workshop, air conditioning and a wood‑burning stove add convenience and comfort.
Internally the house is generously proportioned with large reception rooms, a fitted kitchen with high‑quality appliances and five reception spaces that can be reconfigured to create up to six bedrooms with multiple en‑suites. The walled garden, terraces and country views give a private, rural feel while still being within easy reach of local amenities and the motorway network.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds are reported as slow and the property sits in a remote village setting, which may not suit those needing high‑speed internet or immediate urban facilities. Local primary and secondary schools nearby currently have Ofsted ratings of ‘Requires improvement’. The accommodation is well maintained but offers scope to personalise or modernise certain areas to reflect contemporary tastes.
This home will suit a large family or buyers seeking flexible multi‑generational living in a very affluent, low‑crime village location. The standalone annexe and workshop create clear opportunities for rental income or home business use, while the large plot and gated approach provide privacy and curb appeal.
