Description
Oaklands is largely hidden from the road by very mature hedging and only reveals itself after you make your way down the long and winding gravel driveway to a generous parking area.
The Grade II listed property has an impressive double fronted façade and handsome central columned entrance typical of the Georgian period. Throughout, the interiors are exceptionally well presented in a complementary, contemporary fashion.
There is an excellent selection of reception rooms providing versatile space to live and entertain and include a drawing room, sitting room, dining room and study. Through all are enviable features such as wide bay windows, attractive feature fireplaces, wall panelling and double doors opening to the surrounding garden.
A real feature of the ground floor is the family kitchen with a pitched roof with expose beams, a handsome flagstone floor and beautifully fitted bespoke cabinetry. With space for everyday dining and a breakfast bar kitchen island this is brilliant space and ultimately the hub of the home. Adjoining the kitchen is a walk in larder and a separate laundry room.
On the first floor there are five spacious double bedrooms. The principal bedroom boasts a dressing room and ensuite and there is a second en suite bedroom. There is also a family bathroom. All the bathrooms are very well-appointed with modern fittings.
On the second floor you will find a further double bedroom with open plan bath which makes for a fine guest suite.
The gardens surround the house on all sides and largely comprise level lawns with flower and shrub beds and some lovely specimen trees. Mature tall conifer hedges surround the plot and provide good seclusion from neighbours.
