We are delighted to bring Grove House to the market for the first time in many years. This much-loved family home occupies a wonderful position within the sought-after small hamlet of Ashley, on the outskirts of Box, offering excellent access to the beautiful Georgian city of Bath. The property has been thoughtfully improved and extended by the current owners, who were immediately captivated by the far-reaching views and the delightful gardens, which extend to just over a third of an acre. At the heart of Grove House is the impressive, fashionably open-plan kitchen/breakfast room. Designed by the owners with family life and entertaining in mind, this wonderful space enjoys a lovely outlook across the gardens and provides a welcoming hub at the centre of the home. Complementing the kitchen is a generous utility and boot room, offering excellent practical space for everyday family living. The more traditional accommodation includes a spacious triple-aspect living room, filled with natural light, together with a separate formal dining room, providing the perfect setting for entertaining family and friends. Outside, the gardens are a true delight and have been a real passion for the owners over the years. There are generous lawned areas, providing plenty of space for children to play, alongside extensive areas that have been thoughtfully used for growing fruit and vegetables. The property also benefits from a number of charming, traditional stone-built outbuildings, one of which has potential office space. Subject to the necessary planning consents, these versatile spaces could lend themselves to a variety of alternative uses. Completing the outside accommodation is a detached double garage and a generous driveway, providing ample parking and making this a wonderful family home with so much to offer.<br/><br/><b>Situation</b> - Ashley is a small and picturesque hamlet just outside Box, to the East of Georgian Bath.
