3 Description Little Ashley Farm is a beautiful country house situated in a peaceful hamlet between the World Heritage City of Bath and the picturesque market town of Bradford on Avon. Grade II listed and constructed of stone elevations under a slate roof, the property has a most appealing facade enhanced by well manicured formal gardens that sit to the front of the property. Little Ashley Farm has been the subject of an extensive refurbishment programme over the last ten years. The quality of the workmanship and level of finish are a testament to the meticulous attention to detail that has been implemented throughout. Every aspect of the works, both decorative and structural, have been executed with considerable style and exactness. The result is that Little Ashley Farm is a magnificent country house suitable for modern family living and extravagant entertaining alike. Beautiful architectural details have been preserved providing warmth, charm, character and historical interest, all of which sits exceptionally well alongside high end, contemporary fixtures and furnishings. Upon entering a vestibule leads into a spacious dining hall, with exposed beams and tiled floor. A pretty Georgian bay window affords a pleasing view to the front aspect. A grand and impressive stone fireplace is a superb feature that is open to and shared with the adjacent drawing room.

4 The drawing room benefits from a triple aspect and wooden floors. It is important to note that the ceilings are of a good height as the internal ground levels have been reduced. Beams are also a feature as are stone mullion windows. Of particular note is the stunning kitchen/dining/family room. The proportions are superb, a theme that is replicated throughout the majority of the house. The balance between the existing building and the new addition including bi-folding doors is seamless. The kitchen units are bespoke hand built with granite work surfaces, incorporating an Everhot and a range of high end appliances. Conveniently situated off the kitchen is an excellent informal family room with wooden floors. Two cloakrooms, a boot room and a well appointed utility room complete the ground floor accommodation. On the first floor is a luxurious master suite incorporating a dressing area and a very well appointed en suite bathroom with separate walk-in shower. There are far-reaching views beyond neighbouring farmland to Salisbury Plain in the distance. There are three further bedrooms at first floor level, all of which are very well proportioned and a family bathroom. The second floor provides a guest bedroom suite with bathroom, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.
