Elysian is an impressive, attractive family home occuping a wonderful plot approaching half an acre, in a highly private location with ample scope to extend or even re-develop the plot (stpp). Offered for sale with no onward chain.

The reception spaces are expansive, offering flexibility for both entertaining and everyday family life. Two large studys and a reception room overlook the front gardens, both featuring bespoke built-in cabinetry and ample storage. The sitting room enjoys a lovely garden view, with French doors opening onto the terrace, a bay window, and a decorative fireplace with a wood burner. A formal dining room also benefits from French doors leading to the garden.

The kitchen/breakfast/dining room, which overlooks the garden, is well-appointed with granite worktops, integrated appliances, and a central island with breakfast bar seating. An adjoining dining area leads into the conservatory, which is ideal as a family room featuring a brick fireplace with wood burner and French doors opening to the garden. Additional features on the ground floor include a fully fitted utility room and a guest cloakroom.

On the first floor, there are five double bedrooms, two of which are en-suite, all with built-in wardrobes. The principal bedroom is generous in size, with a well-appointed en suite bathroom. Double doors lead through to an adjacent bedroom, currently used as a dressing room.

Gardens and Grounds

The south-facing garden is a standout feature of the property, wrapping around the house and offering a high level of privacy and seclusion, thanks to the mature hedging and fencing. Predominantly laid to lawn, the garden includes well-stocked beds and borders, providing year-round colour and interest, with a particularly striking Bay tree. A terrace at the rear of the house provides several seating and dining areas, perfect for hosting gatherings. To one side, an area of lawn is accessed through a charming rose arch.

Another highlight is the large, substantial cabin/summer house, ideally suited as a gym or separate home office space. Additional storage is provided by a shed, composting bins, and a further patio area. The front garden features areas of lawn and established flower beds. A driveway to the side offers parking for several vehicles and leads to a double garage.
