Ilsham House stands prominently in the very heart of leafy Wellswood, with this APARTMENT occupying a fourth floor position enjoying an open aspect toward the tree lined Asheldon Road. The development benefits from lift access to all levels, a communal laundry, sheltered courtyard garden area, and ample parking where there is an allocated space for the flat and additional visitor provisions.
Ilsham House is virtually a stone's throw from the local amenities at Ilsham Road, with Wellswood retaining a ‘village’ ambiance and selection of shops which include a fine delicatessen, restaurant, pub, chemist, post office, florist and travel agent. Following Ilsham Road down through the picturesque Ilsham Valley takes you to Meadfoot Beach, a heaven for water sports and popular Meadfoot Beach Cafe.

OWNER'S INSIGHT
"I watched Ilsham House being built and moved in from new in 1975, then took the option to purchase my flat in 1982. I've certainly seen quite a few changes over the past 49 years, and I still dearly love my home, but my family are wanting me closer so I'm heading north again. The location is simply perfect. Everything I could need is on the doorstep, and I even previously worked at Kents Cavern so no excuse for being late! Ilsham House is a friendly community, and I hope the next owners experience as much enjoyment and longevity here as I have."
