THE Property of the Week is Ash House, a five-bedroom Georgian-style property in Ollerton, which offers 25 acres of gardens and extensive leisure facilities, including a gymnasium, swimming pool, steam room, spa area and tennis courts.

It is on sale through Savills of Knutsford for a guide price of £7.5 million.

Knutsford Guardian:

Ash House is one of the outstanding houses in Cheshire. In recent years it has been renovated and remodelled to an exceptional standard of design and quality with the creation of award-winning gardens and grounds being a key feature.

The style of architecture clearly shows the evolution of the house, with the earlier parts thought to date from the 17th century and a handsome Georgian core finished in Cheshire brick beneath a slate roof.

Knutsford Guardian:

Later wings, the most recent completed in 2015, incorporate the excellent leisure facilities. The result is best described as the complete contemporary country home.

The grounds are of particular note, having largely been designed and created in 2014/15, gaining the architect the Northern Designer of the Year Award in 2015.

Knutsford Guardian:

The gardens have numerous sitting and dining areas and the centrepiece of an incredible reflective pond flanked by a series of fountains.
