LOCATION
The historic market town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch has origins dating back to Roman times and is most notably recognised for its 15th century castle, once the seat of the Hastings family. Today, Ashby is a thriving and highly regarded community, perfectly positioned on the north side of the A42 dual carriageway. The town offers superb connectivity, with swift links south-west via the M42 to Birmingham and Birmingham International Airport, and north-east to the M1 corridor, providing access to East Midlands cities and Nottingham East Midlands Airport at Castle Donington.
Ashby itself combines rich heritage with an excellent range of amenities, centred around its thriving high street with a mix of national retailers, independent boutiques, cafés and restaurants, together with supermarkets including M&S Simply Food. The town is also well served by the Hood Park Leisure Centre, offering a swimming pool, gym and sports facilities, while the surrounding National Forest provides an abundance of scenic walks, cycling routes and outdoor recreation.
AGENTS COMMENTS
Converted by renowned local developer Lychgate Homes in 2021, Knights Mews has quickly established itself as one of Ashby's most desirable residential developments, successfully blending historic Grade II listed architecture with contemporary living. This particular apartment stands out thanks to its generous proportions, impressive open-plan kitchen flooded with natural light from roof lanterns, and direct access onto a courtyard terrace. With its own private entrance, high-quality finish throughout and central yet peaceful setting, it offers an excellent opportunity for downsizers, professionals or those seeking a secure lock-up-and-leave home within easy walking distance of Ashby's excellent amenities.
We would also like to highlight, that the exceptionally low annual service charge and the absence of ground rent means the amount you pay each year towards maintaining the building and any communal areas is lower than is typical for similar leasehold properties.
ACCOMMODAITON DETAILS
The apartment is accessed via its own private entrance and opens into a generous reception hall, setting the tone for the spacious accommodation beyond.
Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the impressive open-plan living space. The contemporary kitchen has been beautifully fitted with a range of sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances, generous work surfaces and a breakfast bar, whilst large roof lanterns flood the room with natural light, creating an exceptionally bright and airy entertaining space. The adjoining living room is equally well-proportioned, finished with quality wood flooring and French doors opening into the courtyard garden.
There are two excellent double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefitting from a stylish en-suite bathroom featuring a contemporary white suite, full-height marble-effect tiling and an over-bath rainfall shower. The second bedroom is also a comfortable double and is served by a separate luxury shower room, making the layout ideal for guests, family members or those seeking single-level living.
OUTSIDE
Residents also enjoy attractive landscaped communal gardens with paved seating areas and raised planting, together with one allocated parking space within the private residents' car park.
