Summary - Ascot Cottage, London Road SL5 7DJ
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Large plot with garage and separate studio near Ascot conveniences.
Approximately 0.43 acre mature, secluded rear garden
A substantial four-bedroom detached period house set on about 0.43 acres, walking distance to Ascot High Street. The home retains 1930s character — inglenook fireplace, bay windows and pitched roofs — while offering generous living space including an open-plan kitchen/breakfast room and a separate sun room that opens onto mature rear gardens. The principal bedroom benefits from a dressing area and en suite; three further bedrooms and a family bathroom provide flexible family accommodation.
Outdoor space is a key asset: a secluded, well-stocked garden, detached double garage with storage above and a separate studio/outdoor office ideal for home working. Driveway parking and mature hedging add privacy and kerb appeal. The location is convenient for Ascot High Street (about 0.6 miles), local schools and Ascot rail services to London.
Buyers should note practical issues that affect running costs and potential upgrade work. The EPC is rated D; the cavity walls appear to have no added insulation and glazing dates from before 2002, so thermal improvements would be sensible. Broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal. There is a medium flood risk and council tax is in a high band, which may influence ongoing costs.
This property will suit a family seeking space and character in a very desirable town setting, or buyers wanting a substantial plot with scope to update and extend (subject to consents). The garden, garage and separate studio deliver strong lifestyle and home-working benefits, but plan for energy-efficiency improvements and potential maintenance associated with an older period home.
