General Description - Elm House represents a superb opportunity to acquire an individually built and sympathetically extended detached family home, nestled quietly on the outskirts of the popular village of Botcheston with extensive gardens and versatile internal living accommodation.

To the front, beyond the brick pillars and composite gates a block paved driveway allows ample parking and access into the double garage. Beyond the driveway is a stunning south facing formal garden, laid mostly to lawn with established borders to surround and a large, raised decking area ideal for entertaining. There is also space to the side for a large garden shed and path to the side and rear of the property.

Internally, a welcoming entrance hall gives access to a large dual aspect sitting room, centred around the feature gas fireplace and doors onto the seating terrace. The dining room in generous in size and leads on to the kitchen/breakfast room, a large utility room and third reception room currently utilised as a gym. The third reception room has been used as a family room, gym, office and has great potential for further conversion for those looking for annex potential and multigenerational living.
