Red House Lane, Elstead, Godalming, Surrey, GU8

Occupying an established position in the popular Surrey village of Elstead, Parkwood is an attractive four-bedroom detached family home offering generous and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors. With its distinctive tile-hung gable, brick elevations and bay window, the house has plenty of traditional character and, while now offering scope for some updating, provides an excellent opportunity for an incoming purchaser to create a home to their own taste.

The front door opens into an entrance hall with the staircase rising to the first floor and access to the principal ground-floor rooms. To the front is a comfortable sitting room, where a broad bay window brings plenty of light into the room and a stone fireplace provides an attractive focal point.

Beyond, the particularly generous family/dining room extends to almost 23ft and provides excellent flexibility for both everyday living and entertaining. Windows to the side bring in further natural light, while glazed double doors at the rear open directly onto the garden, creating a natural connection with the outside. A further stone fireplace adds character and provides a focal point to the sitting area.

The kitchen/breakfast room is positioned alongside and is fitted with a comprehensive range of light-coloured cabinetry, work surfaces and tiled splashbacks, with ample room for a breakfast table beside a large window overlooking the garden. The adjoining utility room provides valuable additional storage and laundry space, together with a sink and a useful external door giving direct access to the side of the house. A ground-floor cloakroom completes the accommodation on this level.

The first floor is arranged around a central landing and provides four bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with its own en-suite shower room. There are two further well-proportioned bedrooms, with built-in storage to one, while the fourth bedroom offers excellent versatility as a nursery, study or home office if required. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, creating a practical arrangement for family life.

Parkwood sits within established gardens that wrap around the house and provide plenty of scope for keen gardeners. Areas of lawn are complemented by mature hedging, trees and established planting, together with productive garden areas and a greenhouse. A paved terrace immediately adjoining the rear of the house provides space for outdoor seating, with the double doors from the family/dining room opening directly onto this area. A substantial detached garage, extending to approximately 291 sq ft, provides excellent additional storage, workshop or garaging space.
