This spacious five-bedroom detached house in sought-after Great Ellshams is offered chain free and suits growing families seeking flexible accommodation. The property has been extended to provide an adaptable layout including a ground-floor double bedroom with en suite that could serve as annexe or guest accommodation. A large double-aspect sitting room and conservatory open onto a secluded west-facing garden with lawn and patio, ideal for evening sun and alfresco dining.
Constructed in the late 1970s/early 1980s, the house benefits from double glazing and gas central heating to radiators. The driveway leads to an attached garage with power and lighting, and there is ample off-street parking. Local amenities are strong: Banstead High Street, Waitrose and several 'Good' primary schools are within easy reach, while the area is very affluent with very low crime and fast broadband — good for home working.
Buyers should note practical aspects honestly: the property dates from 1976–1982 and, while well-presented in places, may benefit from modernisation throughout to match contemporary tastes and reduce running costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The plot is decent but not exceptionally large; there are opportunities to re-landscape or extend (subject to planning).
