* Townhouse * Village location * Three bedrooms * Two reception rooms * Two bathrooms * Parking * Lovely garden * Courtyard *

A beautifully presented modern townhouse built in 2006 by Messrs Laing Homes, discreetly positioned at the rear of this small contemporary development in Kings Worthy. The house has an impressive three storey façade, although from the rear the architecture is strikingly different. With stylish, bright spaces the property is perfectly designed for entertaining with its central vaulted hallway giving access to both the wonderfully light dual aspect sitting room and the spacious fitted kitchen/dining room.

Recent updates include a contemporary new kitchen, a refitted en-suite to the master bedroom, new downstairs W.C., and replacement carpets throughout the house.

On the ground floor the entrance hall leads to a W.C, and then through to a large, welcoming inner hall from which the sitting room and the kitchen/dining room can be reached. A window looks over the superb inner courtyard which lies between the two reception spaces.

The kitchen is bright and spacious with fitted Bosch appliances, generous storage units and a breakfast bar. The dining area comfortably accommodates a formal table and chairs for 6 people and has sliding doors out to the courtyard. The sitting room at the rear is a superb part-vaulted space, with doors leading to the rear garden and to the inner courtyard with large windows above serving to maximise natural light and create a striking impression.

The first floor has two good double bedrooms, a smart family bathroom, and the airing cupboard housing the boiler.

The lovely master bedroom suite encompasses the whole of the 2nd floor, with a large bedroom, a separate walk-in wardrobe and modern en-suite.

The design of the house is such that there is a lovely, central courtyard between the kitchen and the sitting room, perfect for al-fresco dining.

The rest of the garden has been cleverly re-landscaped on two levels, with a patio area across the rear of the house and a raised lawn bordered by well-stocked planters and contemporary narrow-board fence at the rear, as well as a shed.

There is allocated parking for 1 car and additional visitors’ parking.

Elan Court is in the heart of the village of Kings Worthy and a short distance from Kings Worthy Primary School. Locally there are two public houses, a Tesco Express, post office and Good Life farm shop and café. Kings Worthy is an excellent location for access to the A34, A33 and M3 motorway. The City of Winchester is a short distance away, with its mainline railway station (links to London Waterloo in about 60 minutes), High Street shops, boutiques, library, coffee shops, public houses, restaurants, theatre, cinema, museums and, of course, the City’s historic Cathedral.
