4 bed detached house for sale

Monks Close, Ascot, Berkshire SL5

Monks Wood is a comfortable detached three-bedroom family home offering in excess of 2,100 sq ft of light, airy accommodation with a flexible layout. While requiring modernisation, it also provides considerable scope for renovation or redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents.

The ground floor offers three flexible reception rooms in which to relax and entertain. The highlight of these is the 26 ft. Sitting room, which features a fireplace, two south-west facing windows welcoming plenty of natural light, and sliding glass doors opening into a generously proportioned conservatory. A formal dining room also opens, via bi-fold doors, into the conservatory, thereby creating a seamless semi open-plan living space with direct garden access.

A versatile ground-floor bedroom and an adjacent bathroom offer further flexibility. Towards the rear is a well-equipped kitchen and an adjoining utility room for further home storage and appliances. The kitchen itself is fitted with units to base and wall level, integrated appliances including dual ovens, a gas hob and an extractor hood, and doors opening to both the front and rear aspects.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms. The principal suite features a walk-in wardrobe, separate dressing room, and en suite shower room. The remaining two bedrooms benefit from fitted storage, and a second shower room is accessible from the first-floor landing.

The property is set at the end of a small and quiet residential cul-de-sac and offers a serene retreat. A five-bar wooden gate grants access to the spacious driveway, which affords generous parking and leads to both an integrated garage and convenient carport. The garden surrounding the property is enveloped by mature trees and established hedging, creating a sense of peace and privacy. It is primarily laid to lawn and features various mature shrubs and a small pond; this verdant outdoor space presents an excellent opportunity for further landscaping.

Situated in one of South Ascot’s most desirable roads, Monks Wood is conveniently located for the towns of Ascot and Sunningdale which offer an array of amenities, including coffee shops and restaurants, as well as supermarkets. Nearby Sunninghill has a small High Street with many of the amenities required for day-to-day living, including a variety of shops and a good choice of pubs, bars and restaurants.

The area is also well served by a number of excellent schools in both the state and independent sectors, including St. Mary’s (less than 500 metres from the property).

Transport links are extensive in the area with the M3, M4 and M25 all close by as well as Ascot and Sunningdale Railway Stations providing access to London Waterloo in just under an hour. Heathrow and Gatwick airports are also within easy reach.
