Isabel Drive, Elsenham, Bishop's Stortford

Jukes Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this very well-presented two-bedroom house in this popular area of Elsenham, built in 2017.

The property is in immaculate condition throughout, and the owner has moved in with his partner elsewhere, so he no longer lives here full-time. When you come into the property, unlike many new builds, this one is very spacious, open plan downstairs with a modern kitchen and downstairs WC, upstairs you have two very good-sized double bedrooms and a modern family bathroom.

The property comes with 2 allocated parking spaces at the side of the house, and there is a really good-sized private garden at the rear.
Close to local shops, good schools and Stansted Airport this is really the perfect starter home.
