Oakfield Cottage is an immaculately presented family home offering spacious and flexible accommodation over two floors. The house has been sympathetically extended and whilst retaining many period features including sash windows and original floor tiles, it has a wonderful bright contemporary feel to it as well. The ground floor comprises a smart drawing room featuring sash windows, an attractive fireplace with wooden mantle and woodburning stove, and an elegant glazed fitted bookcase. The sitting room is also well appointed with wooden flooring and sliding doors to the patio and garden. The hub of the house is the fabulous kitchen/breakfast room which is fitted with a Wren kitchen with grey and blue cabinetry and oak worktops, fitted with Neff appliances, two composite sinks and space for a built-in freezer and American style fridge. An exposed brick feature wall houses another fireplace and there is also the benefit of underfloor heating. Doors lead out from the dining area to the terrace and garden. In addition there is a family room, separate office and utility/cloakroom on this floor. Upstairs there is a very generous principal bedoom with ample wardrobe space and an en suite shower room. There are also four further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, a well as a family bathroom.

The property is accessed off a quiet lane onto a gravel driveway with parking for up to 5 cars. The gardens at the rear are south-facing and mainly laid to lawn with some woodland and pathways down one side leading to a pond and seating area at the far end.
