DESCRIPTION The Grey House is a wonderful Grade II* listed family home situated in the heart of Ashbourne town with spacious yet flexible accommodation over three floors. Stone steps lead to the front door which opens into a large entrance hall with stone flagged floor and dado panelling. To the right of the hall is the drawing room which is a wonderfully light room with marble fireplace and bay window, to the left of the hall is the dining room with a pillared Hopton stone fireplace, bay window and a door leading to the rear hall. The rear hall gives access to the kitchen/breakfast room, well fitted with a range of wall and base units and doors to the pantry and to the large utility room to the rear of the property which in turn has a back door leading to the garden. Also off the rear hall are two cloakrooms, the rear lobby and the main staircase to the first floor. The rear lobby leads to an office/sitting room which is the former waiting room for the dentist’s practice and has a side door leading via a passage out onto Church Street; this could provide useful home office space or alternatively make an excellent sitting room. The office/sitting room has a door opening into a study which was formerly the dentist’s surgery. A door from the study leads to stairs down to the extensive cellars and also the back staircase to the first floor. The first floor has an excellent master bedroom suite comprising bedroom with bay window, sitting room, dressing room/bedroom 4 and walk-in wardrobe. There are two other bedrooms and a family bathroom to this floor with four further bedrooms and a bathroom to the second floor. Outside to the rear are wonderful gardens with a paved terrace immediately outside the property and stones steps leading up to the mature terraced gardens which include a grass tennis court, lawns, a flower garden and a productive vegetable patch. The gardens are surrounded by high retaining walls which offer a good deal of privacy but also have two niches built in which offer wonderful views across the town and to the countryside beyond. There is also a good size garage to the rear of the gardens which is accessed off Belle Vue Road.
