Elvedene, a 19th Century semi-detached Cottage that is located in the centre of Timsbury village. A home with character that has been modernised and opened up to give ample space and light. You will find a layout that really works and the presentation exceedingly good. A key aspect is the wonderful southerly facing rear garden which we were not expecting when we first viewed.
The property is set well back from North Road with a Cerny stone gravel driveway. The house is partially disguised by a healthy Magnolia tree. The entrance porch has been added more recently and the solid wooden door and archway windows are really in keeping with what lies beyond. Next, you step into the main living area which has been opened up from front to back with a stone pillar, large wooden beams and a beautiful ornate spiral staircase leading to the first floor. There is a focal fire place with a log burner for those cosy evenings in and solid oak flooring.
Beyond is a generous kitchen/dining room with views out to the rear garden and side, the hub of the house with room for a range style cooker, a utility room to the side with an access door to outside and a cloakroom.
The first floor has a spacious landing area and leads to all of the rooms with that feature spiral staircase. The main bedroom to the rear of the property has a beautiful vaulted ceiling with beam work on display, and overlooks the rear garden. The guest bedroom, double size, has its own ensuite shower room. The next two bedrooms are being used as dressing/occasional rooms but will accommodate double beds also.
The bathroom is beautifully presented, tiled and provides a four piece suite, ideal for families.
Externally, the rear garden is an oasis of tranquillity, fully enclosed, large level lawns, mature trees, plenty of flora and it bathes in southerly sun. There is a gorgeous arbour to sit in, ideal for those warm sunsets, a workshop which is always handy. It's a case of picking your spot to enjoy in that moment
