A substantial house with luxury styling, set in beautiful gardens in an exclusive Ascot setting
Wellbridge Cottage is a magnificent detached home that offers four comfortable reception rooms off the welcoming reception hall, including the 28ft main sitting room with its wooden flooring, fireplace fitted with a logburner, and triple aspect, welcoming plenty of natural light and opening onto the garden via French doors. A formal dining room adjoins the sitting room in a semi open-plan layout, and across the reception hall is a useful study for home working, and a family room, providing further space in which to relax.
Towards the rear of the house, the large open kitchen has a stunning glass ceiling, panoramic windows and bi-folding doors opening onto the decked terrace and garden, with L’Cornue French units and integrated appliances including NEFF ovens and warming drawer, a Miele dishwasher and a Liebherr wine fridge. In addition to a complete re-styling, modern technological and eco-efficient features were installed, including three-phase electricity, a Sony TV and Denton stereo unit with 3-way speaker system for the kitchen, pool, and garden, new central heating, high-performance double glazing, under-floor heating and other advanced features.
Towards the rear of the ground floor is an impressive indoor swimming pool and gym, with the pool depth going from approximately 1m to a depth of 2m, with bi-folding doors that open out to beautifully maintained decking that links with the kitchen/breakfast room, thereby creating superb entertaining/recreational space. The pool has the benefit of an ozone filtration system and there are dedicated shower facilities within the changing room. In addition, it also benefits from a retractable cover and lighting modes in the pool and surrounding area. Above the pool area is a large boarded storage room with power and lighting that could be converted to further living space, subject to the necessary consents.
Upstairs, the main house has four well-presented double bedrooms, including the luxurious principal bedroom with its dressing room and en suite shower room. Bedroom 2 has a dressing area and en suite bathroom, whilst a family bathroom services the remaining bedrooms. A further double bedroom can be found above the garage. With its en suite shower room and large studio-style layout, the space could be utilised as accommodation for guests or an au-pair. It is worth noting that the house has a fully boarded loft providing useful storage space.
This property has 1.15 acres of land.

At the front, the spacious driveway provides plenty of parking space and access to the double garage for secure parking or storage and workshop space; the floor has a fully sealed coating and units/cupboards, plus wall racking, were manufactured and installed by Dura.
The gardens to the sides and rear feature beautiful rolling lawns, well-stocked border beds and a wealth of established shrubs and mature trees, all of which have been regularly maintained by a professional gardener. Social areas include the patio and the timber deck, while there is also a splendid garden room (with heating), plus two sheds for garden storage.
