Detached house for sale in Hancocks Mount, Ascot SL5

When the architect designed this property they were clearly looking to offer a very generously proportioned and versatile family home and that will be obvious as soon as you walk through the front door into the welcoming reception hall. The feeling of light and airy space continues throughout this lovely home. In recent years the current owners have remodeled the kitchen/breakfast room which is now likely to become the hub of family life, whilst the other reception rooms offer everyone the opportunity to find their own space.
To the front the driveway provides ample parking for most and leads to the double garage which is set back to one side. The gardens run around the other 3 sides and are full of mature shrubs and trees providing a good deal of seclusion. To the rear of the house is a lovely patio area, ideal for summer entertaining and tucked away to the side is a detached home office which would work equally well as a studio or gym.
