Staceys Farm Road, Elstead, Godalming, Surrey, GU8

Sitting back from the greenery of Stacey�s Farm Road, Ashley proffers an immense measure of its original grace and character. Built over 50 years ago by a renowned local builder for his own family, today it offers a fantastic chain free opportunity to be styled and reconfigured to perfectly reflect your own lifestyle needs. Set within the tranquillity of gated grounds of circa 0.25 acres, its prodigious layout stretches out behind a beautiful double fronted facade generating ample scope to incorporate a large annexe if needed. When you step in from the charming enclosed entrance porch you�ll find an abundance of tastefully presented rooms unfolding from a central hallway, conjuring a coveted sense of light and space. To one side a series of interconnecting rooms gives a hugely natural flow and a choice of places in which to relax and unwind. A formal dining room has the focal point of a working fireplace with a exposed brick surround, while the adjoining sun room opens onto the patio via French doors providing a highly calm and restful place to sit back and admire the gardens that stretch out before you. Explore further and you�ll find a large mid-century utility room that can easily be refreshed to reflect your own tastes and a study that might become either be a peaceful retreat in which to work from home, a fourth bedroom or play room � the choice is yours. Its en-suite cloakroom sits tucked away to the side. Across the hallway the host of possibilities that this ground floor has to offer continues in a wing that could be redesigned to give self-contained annexe accommodation or be opened up to generate a gym, cinema room or one magnificent open plan space in which to entertain. Currently, a good sized double aspect reception room has a further brick fireplace and the adjacent fitted kitchen/breakfast room already easily accommodates a central table. With a lovely flow of natural light filtering down from above the turning staircase leads up to a wonderful light filled landing looking out onto the surrounding greenery. Creating its own extensive wing, an enviably spacious and elegant double aspect main bedroom is filled with garden vistas and has an en-suite bathroom and copious storage within a walk-in dressing room. Two additional double aspect bedrooms are equally notable, and whilst the double bedroom has plenty of fitted wardrobes, together they share a family bathroom that when refreshed could add a luxury finishing touch. Deep cupboards in both the hallway and main bedroom suite supply additional handy storage. Much loved over the years, the gardens of this Elstead home transport you from the hubbub of the world outside to gardens that conjure a peaceful sanctuary. To the front the evergreen foliage of majestically tall trees and hedging instantly proffers a prized level of privacy and a hugely attractive introduction. A gated driveway can sweep past the handsome double fronted facade of the house combining with an attached garage to give private off-road parking. Lovingly tended beds of shrubs and an established lawn enhance the allure of this quintessential English country home further still. At the rear the ground floor entices you out onto capacious gardens that are effortlessly easy to fall in love with and spark the imagination. Paved patios supply a choice of places to enjoy al fresco dining, prodigious lawns give children plenty of space to play and budding gardeners will adore the dedicated vegetable garden with its large modern greenhouse. A central path encourages you to take a stroll in the sunshine past each subtly defined area giving you every chance to let your shoulders relax in the tranquillity of gardens that add a rural idyll to this unique family home. High established borders lend colour and a feeling of privacy throughout the season. A viewing is highly recommended to appreciate this lovely family home, its potential and fantastic location.
