This 5 bedroom property retains much of its period charm and character with a warming ambiance throughout and is believed to date circa 16th century as a pair of cottages. In 1823 (approx) it became a public house (The Old Oak) and was converted in approximately 1962 into a private dwelling with later extensions.

A stable door is used as the main entrance and this leads into an attractive quarry tiled hallway with primary staircase leading up to beds 1, 2, and 3 plus a family bathroom. From the hallway there is access to the cellar and double aspect family room/study, living room, plus a large kitchen/breakfast room.

The living room is character filled with period charm that includes exposed timbers and old pine fronted cupboards and a fitted pew seat to the side of the 'Jetmaster' fireplace.
There is a recessed area leading to the original front door plus further stable door into the characterful open plan fitted kitchen/breakfast room with extensive exposed brick work and exposed wall and ceiling timbers.

From the kitchen/ breakfast room there is a second staircase that leads to bedrooms 4 and 5 and access to the inner hallway with dining room and a modern shower room/wc.
There are doors from both the kitchen/breakfast room and family room to the rear garden.

On the split level landing from the primary staircase are 3 double bedrooms and family bathroom. Both bedrooms 2 and 3 have exposed wall and ceiling timbers. Bedroom 2 with wall to wall fitted wardrobes and a large walk in airing cupboard.

Bedroom 3 provides access to the second split level landing from the kitchen. There are two rooms on this landing. Bedroom 4 with exposed timbers and a hobby room/bedroom 5. The latter could be converted subject to necessary consents into a bathroom to serve bedrooms 3 and 4 .

Between the house and the barn is a gravelled driveway with parking for several cars, greenhouse and garden gate to the rear garden. Further parking is located to the front of the barn.

The rear garden is mainly lawned, south westerly aspect with mature borders and patio area adjacent to the kitchen/breakfast room.

A separate detached barn has door access from the driveway into a utility area with separate WC. From this utility area a door leads into the main area of the barn (36 x 13 ft) with high ceiling and exposed beams. There is further access into the garage area. (18'5 x 16'5).
