Elstead House is a modern, beautifully presented property arranged across two floors, offering over 2,300 sq. ft of attractive accommodation with understated contemporary fittings throughout.

On the ground floor, the welcoming reception hall with practical cloakroom and stairway to the first floor, flows naturally through double doors to the dual aspect, 22ft sitting room which benefits from French doors opening out to the terrace. The bright and airy dining room features two sets of double doors which lead through to the kitchen, and to a peaceful, light-filled conservatory with garden views and direct access to the terrace. Fitted with modern shaker style wall and base units, the spacious kitchen has space for a good-sized table and access to the terrace.
