This fantastic and imposing double fronted Edwardian style home is believed to date back to the 1930's, offering a wealth of character throughout including tall sash windows, architraves and generous room proportions. English oak is featured throughout including characterful fireplaces in the main reception rooms. The front doors open to a large and welcoming entrance hall with an oak panelled stairway rising to the first floor, and access to the principle living areas. There is a cloakroom and bathroom on the ground floor.

The drawing room and formal dining room are located at the front of the home have sash windows overlooking the wonderful flowering shrubs of rhododendron, azaleas, magnolias, and roses with feature fireplaces giving a focal point to the rooms. A large study with oak bookcases, fireplace and baxi fire looks out on the rear garden which also includes a range of flowering shrubs.

The kitchen and breakfast rooms also to the rear, overlook the terrace and lawned garden. The kitchen has been maintained to a high standard with alterations being sympathetic to the character of the house, including a handmade oak fitted kitchen with integrated wall and base units and fitted appliances.

The breakfast room also offers an Aga oven and original dresser units as well as a servant's bell. There is a large hobbies/family/utility room, conveniently located with double doors leading from the kitchen which also offers access to the front of the property and conservatory. The conservatory with its own side courtyard, offers wonderful far-reaching views of the garden and beyond.

On the first floor, the large galleried landing gives access to the four generously proportioned bedrooms. The large principle suite has period features, windows overlooking the front and side, fitted wardrobes with ample living space. There are a further three double bedrooms as well as a separate family bathroom with shower and separate w.c.

The fabulous garden and grounds surrounding the house are a significant feature of this property, cleverly divided into various sections to make use of the space and offering unparalleled views of the neighbouring farmland and to the Weald beyond. Three sets of steps continue onto a gently sloping lawn with extensive borders and trees. To the west is an area of ancient woodland including the three mature oaks after which the house was named. Two large weeping willows occupy the eastern corner.

Two gated driveways give access to either side of the property with the lower one leading to a large detached double garage that has a single up and over door and separate garden store. The Conservatory has its own side courtyard closed off with railings and gates and there are two greenhouses.

Overall, the ambience is that of a country house set in its own secluded grounds with wonderful all-round views but close proximity to all amenities.
