Property

Elstead

Impeccably presented detached 1930's built residence set within delightful grounds extending to over half an acre, providing excellent ample parking facilities and a large double-width detached garage. The property has been significantly enhanced by the current owners, most notably through a cleverly designed double-storey front extension, creating a spacious and versatile home ideal for modern family living.

The ground floor accommodation is thoughtfully arranged into two distinct areas: the principal living space and a self-contained one-bedroom annexe. The annexe is perfectly suited for multi-generational living - ideal for an older relative or a teenager seeking independence, or could alternatively be incorporated into the main house if desired.

Enjoying a semi-rural setting while remaining conveniently positioned just over half a mile from the heart of Elstead’s thriving village.

About This Property

The principal living accommodation provides a range of beautifully presented rooms, including a stunning kitchen, with dining area and further seating. This space has been refitted with high-quality solid wood units by Neptune and is complemented by an Aga, integral appliances and Silestone quartz work-surfaces, creating a warm and inviting room where doubtless a great deal of your time will be spent not just cooking but relaxing and spending family time. There is a separate utility room for your laundry appliances. There are two further reception rooms - a stunning sitting room with wood-burner within an attractive brick-surround fireplace and bi-fold doors opening directly onto the gardens, and a formal dining room.

Heading through the utility room takes you to the annexe area of the house, which can also be independently accessed from the outside. This area is fully equipped for independent living with a sitting room, kitchen, bedroom and shower-room. There is also a conservatory with great garden views.

Upstairs, the first floor provides up to five bedrooms, offering flexibility for growing families or those requiring additional workspace. The principal suite is stunning, with an array of wood-fronted fitted wardrobes as you enter the room and framing a doorway into the modern bath/shower-room. French doors open to a private balcony providing garden views. The second bedroom also enjoys its own ensuite facilities whilst there is a further family bathroom.

Outside & Exterior

Laybrook Cottage is obscured from Milford Road by well-maintained shrubbery and trees, and is approached from the road via double 5-bar gates leading to an sweeping expanse of gravelled parking and a cobble-stone forecourt in front of the double width garage. Behind the garage are two in-built storage areas and there is light, power and water. There is an external hot water tap.

There are extensive stone paved and gravelled patio areas to the rear of the house with plenty of space to sit out, that include shaded areas created by a pergola with a magnificent flowering wisteria in the spring. Beyond is a large area of well-maintained lawns bordered by mature shrubs and trees.

The village of Elstead, situated betwixt Godalming and Farnham, is one of the county’s most sought-after villages that really does have so much going for it. The village centre has a convenience store covering day to day needs, a Post Office, doctors’ surgery, and three inns. There is a tennis and cricket club as well as numerous other associations one can join. The area is surrounded by glorious countryside, including Hankley & Puttenham Common and you can quite literally cycle for miles without scarcely crossing a road. The A3 with its direct road link into London is approx 2 miles from the village and the mainline station at Milford is approx 3½ miles with its direct services into Waterloo. The picturesque and historic market towns of Godalming and Farnham are approx 5 miles distant, whilst Guildford is approx 7 miles away, all of which makes this a fabulous village to live in.
