Description
Oakwood is a detached family home which is believed to date from the1930s and has been remodelled and refurbished in more recent years. Set well back from the road amidst established gardens and woodland, this New England-style property features light family accommodation which flows well and is arranged over two floors, with engineered oak flooring to most rooms and a bespoke staircase leading up to a galleried landing.
Internal accommodation comprises a glazed porch leading to a lovely reception hall, a well proportioned dual aspect sitting room with Jotul wood burning stove and French doors to the gardens. An arch leads through to the adjoining dining room, and combined they provide the ideal space for family and entertaining. There is also a family/games room with double doors to the rear terrace and a study/home office. The kitchen/breakfast room is equipped with a comprehensive range of cupboards, an electric AGA and various integral Neff appliances including a double oven, a dishwasher, a fridge and freezer. Completing the ground floor is a utility room with fitted cupboards and space for white goods and separate garden access.
Off the light and airy galleried landing there are five bedrooms together with four bath or shower rooms, three being en suite and all with modern sanitary ware. The main bedroom is a lovely room with a Juliet balcony, a dressing room and a modern en suite bathroom with freestanding bath and a separate shower.
Oakwood is approached via electric double gates with the drive winding around through the trees to the parking to one side of the house and the garaging. The gardens, which adjoin woodland to the rear, are mainly laid to lawn with an array of trees, rhododendrons, azaleas and a pond. There is an outdoor swimming pool with paved surround and a pool house.
