Engvej 39

An ideally laid-out family house is now for sale in charming Gelsted, where you become part of a lovely local community, conveniently placed between Næstved and Herlufmagle. Here you have both nature and everyday life close at hand, and the house itself is likewise tailored to the needs of the modern family with children.

The house was built here in 1971, making it part of the start of the great wave of family homes built in that decade. That is no bad thing, as the focus was on the family’s needs, with larger shared rooms, a better connection between kitchen and living areas, and enclosed gardens with terraces facing the sun. Several period features, such as large windows and retro floor tiles, also recur, while the house has clearly been updated in several places.

The kitchen has been opened up to create a breakfast bar facing the living room. Here the children can sit and do their homework while dinner is made amid timeless fittings. The living room is naturally divided into a dining area and a sitting area, both with ample room for furniture. Four rooms are spread between the two ends of the house, letting you create your own “parents’ wing”, while the bathroom sits conveniently in the middle with both a bath and a shower. Finally, the house can be entered both from the bright entrance hall, which is open to the kitchen, and from the utility room.

Outside, a secluded garden awaits which, with its level lawn and a few beds, is both inviting and easy to maintain. House and garden are linked by a well-established terrace area that gets sun from the east, south and west, while at the front neat paving has been laid, forming a tidy front garden and leading up to the carport and the shed.

The location places you safely in quiet surroundings, within a short walk of both childcare and shops here in town, while the school is three kilometres away in Herlufmagle. With a bike, everyday life will run smoothly, and there is a bus stop two roads away – and it is just over seven kilometres to Næstved, where lively town life and plenty of career opportunities await.

We look forward to meeting you at a viewing.
