10 LEICESTER ROAD, ASHBY DE LA ZOUCH LEICESTERSHIRE
Amongst the improvements are: an extended Lounge opening into a Conservatory, an extension to the Second Bedroom, a large extension to the original kitchen more than doubling its size, and the creation of a superb Master Bedroom measuring some forty feet in length with a luxury En-suite.
Briefly, the accommodation comprises: two Breakfast Kitchens, three Reception Rooms, five Bedrooms, three En-suites, a Study area and a Conservatory. The layout of the property enables part of the house to be used as a self contained ANNEXE with its own Kitchen, Shower Room and Bedroom - useful for guests, dependent relative or a teenager, perhaps. Finally, there is a double garage and parking for up to four vehicles.
The name "Ascebi" is, appropriately, derived from the old English word for Ashby, and is pronounced "A-see-bee".
THE TOWN OF ASHBY DE LA ZOUCH
The ancient, historic market town of Ashby (with its famous 15th century castle) almost certainly dates back to Roman times. Later, in the early 19th century, it became a spa town. Many of the Georgian style buildings that you now see were built to accommodate visitors to the Baths. Today, Ashby de la Zouch is a thriving and bustling town within the National Forest and enjoys a wide range of good shops, schools, pubs, churches and local amenities. The nearby M42 motorway gives easy access to the M1 and M6 and many other Midland towns and cities. The town is also convenient for the Nottingham East Midlands airport.
