An individually built five-bedroom detached home set in a quiet hamlet, Elmstead House offers generous family accommodation and distinctive architectural detail. The curved entrance hall and striking spiral staircase lead to a spacious galleried landing and well-proportioned reception rooms, including a dual-aspect living room with a large brick fireplace and a vaulted dining room with bifold-style glazed doors and tall windows.
The kitchen is arranged for modern family life with space for a large island, integrated appliances, utility room and internal access to the double garage. Ground-floor study and flexible first-floor landing space suit home-working or a children’s play area. Outside, the property sits on a large plot with level front and rear lawns, gated driveway parking and a raised decking area with a treehouse and sun terrace for outdoor entertaining.
Practical features include double glazing, oil-fired central heating, biodigester drainage and an EPC rated C. The location is peaceful and rural in established farming countryside; broadband is fast, mobile signal average, and there is very low local crime. Nearby schools are rated Good, with primary and secondary options within reasonable distance.
Buyers should note the property’s hamlet location means services and shops are limited locally and a car is essential. Heating is oil-fired (not a communal system) and drainage is by biodigester — both are functional but may require different maintenance than mains-connected systems. Council Tax is band F (expensive).
