General information Old Oaks is a lovely detached bungalow which has been extended and meticulously maintained by its present owners in an idyllic location with stunning and extremely flexible accommodation.

The property is approached via electric gates which lead to a sweeping block paved drive which leads through the grounds and past the bungalow to a large central block paved courtyard area surrounded by the property studio and garages.

As one enters the property one is immediately greeted by a range of reception rooms designed to follow the sun throughout the day. The property has quality fittings throughout and there is a wide sunny terrace running along the south side of the property. From this terrace there are lovely views out across the mature landscaped garden and grounds. The kitchen has recently been fully refitted with bespoke handmade units, Durasein worksurfaces and an excellent range of Neff appliances, Quooker tap and tumbled Limestone floor tiles with electric under floor heating.

Opening through the bathroom is a door which leads into the stunning cinema/studio/workshop which extends in total to about 1,000 sq.ft and is built in a manner that it could easily be converted to extra living accommodation but is currently set up as a studio and workshop with home cinema system of the highest possible standard which is featured in the leading home cinema magazine for residential property.
