Relaxing at the back of The Oaks, with the doors open on to the garden, the owners of the modern, detached family enjoy the tranquillity. “We moved here 14 years ago because of the location,” one of them recalls. “There are only about half a dozen homes and many people who live in Ascot are not even aware the road is here.” The property provides an unusual balance of peaceful living and convenience, she suggests. “We are within reach of Ascot High Street, the racecourse and everything else we need and yet it is so quiet here. It is especially nice in the summer when we sit out in the sunshine at the back until about 4.30pm and then move round to the side or even the front of house. It is so tranquil that sitting out at the front is also very enjoyable.”
BEAUTIFUL SPACES
The Oaks has been carefully extended and beautifully updated by the couple over the past 14 years. “We have extended it out to the front to allow us to create a very spacious bedroom and wet room, as well as to enlarge the kitchen and entrance hall,” she explains. “At the back of the house, we added a garden room, which adjoins the drawing room and is used as a dining room.” The owners also created a study and replaced the kitchen and all the bathrooms. “The kitchen is a lovely large room, with beautiful high gloss units, a white porcelain tiled floor, black quartz work surfaces and Siemens appliances, most of which are integrated.”
ENTERTAINING AT HOME
The substantial house now offers well-proportioned living space. It is entered via the bright hallway, which gives access to the long kitchen breakfast room and the very generous drawing room. The drawing room flows easily into the garden room and study. “I spend a lot of time in the kitchen, where we have a television: this is a good family space,” she says. “This room is large enough for a big table, which is where we often have our family meals. In the evening, we usually go through to the drawing room to relax.” The layout of the rooms makes the house ideal for entertaining. “When there are lots of people here, we tend to have drinks in the kitchen and food in the garden room – everyone can wander comfortably between the spaces; in the summer we can go out into the garden too, as we have three sets of French windows.”
LEAFY VIEWS
The ground floor bedroom, with its en suite wet room, offers outstanding space. Accessible for wheelchair users, it could also be a perfect guest suite, as it is separate from the other bedrooms. These can all can be found on the first floor of The Oaks, where there is also a family bathroom, and one bedroom has an en suite shower room. “All the bedrooms here are lovely,” she says. “From upstairs, we look out over fields and woodland – again, it always feels very peaceful when you are up there.”
LEISURE AND PLEASURE
The location of the house has provided excellent access to shops, schools and leisure facilities. There is plenty to do within the Ascot area, from attending the races to playing golf at any one of prestigious golf clubs in the area, going swimming or spending time at a luxury health and fitness club. “We enjoy shopping at the new Lexicon centre in Bracknell or in Windsor,” she says. “We have lived in this area for a long time and appreciate all it has to offer.”
OUT IN THE PARK
The property is also within easy reach of Crown Estate land, including Windsor Great Park.
Windsor Great Park encompasses The Savill Garden, Virginia Water, The Valley Gardens and the Long Walk and Deer Park. It dates back to pre-Saxon times and was used by William I as a hunting ground. Today it includes historical monuments, ancient forests and stunning horticultural displays, as well as rare wildlife and plants. “I often like to go to The Savill Garden for coffee or lunch,” she admits. “I will miss that when we leave – and I will miss the house too. It has been such a peaceful place to be, especially in the summer, when sitting out in the garden is just glorious.”
SETTING THE SCENE
The Oaks is set back from the road, with a beautiful brick weave driveway, which has been completed by the current owners. There is off-road parking for up to three cars. To the rear, the house opens on to enclosed private gardens, where there is a sunny terrace. There is also an area to the side of the house, where it is nice to enjoy a cup of tea of coffee towards the end of the day.
