Charming family home in immaculate condition
Description
With origins thought to date back to the 1700s, Elston Lodge is not listed and offers a wonderful family home of about 2,750 sq ft, presented in very good order. The house is of brick construction, rendered, under a tiled roof. The property is situated in the peaceful hamlet of Elston, just north of Shrewton.
The house itself is stylishly presented with a good flow of rooms on both the ground and first floors.
The entrance hall lies at the heart of the house, with a large kitchen/breakfast room to one side. The kitchen is dual aspect, with fitted units, a large central island, range cooker and integrated dishwasher. There is ample space for a breakfast table, whilst a glazed door opens out to the rear terrace and garden, with a further door through to the utility room.
The drawing room is a lovely room, with open fire place and French windows out to the east facing gardens, ideal for morning sunshine. The dual aspect dining room is also off the entrance hall, with a further door leading through to the family room, quietly positioned at the end of the house.
