An elegant, country residence standing in a delightful, rural setting in grounds of just over two and a half acres in total

Location - The property stands in a convenient and accessible position lying just off the Wolverhampton to Bridgnorth Road (A454) and is within easy reach of Pattingham Village Centre, Wolverhampton and Bridgnorth and all the highly regarded schoolings that those areas provide.

Description - The Oaklands is a substantial country residence with extensive accommodation which is versatile and flexible in use. The house stands in a delightful position with views over adjoining farmland and countryside and stands within glorious gardens with a total plot size of just over two and a half acres in total.

The property would benefit from a gentle scheme of modernisation affording buyers the opportunity to make the house "their own".

Accommodation - A wide, columned PORCH has panelled double doors opening into the galleried RECEPTION HALL which is an inviting entrance to the house with a fireplace with marble hearth and slips and carved surround, windows to the front and a staircase rising to the upper floor. There is a CLOAKROOM with vanity unit and a door to a WC. The DRAWING ROOM is a fine principal reception space with a light corner aspect and a fine, carved fireplace with marble hearth and slips. There is an interconnecting door to the DINING ROOM with a carved fireplace with marble hearth and slips, a light through aspect with windows with working shutters. The BREAKFAST KITCHEN is impressive in terms of size with a comprehensive range of wall and base mounted units, a decorative cast iron range, ample space for informal dining and a door to the CELLAR. There is a UTILITY ROOM with sink unit, a back staircase and a door into a SITTING ROOM with a light through aspect and a corner fireplace with cast iron wood burning stove together with fitted library cabinetry with book shelving and cupboards. A door opens into the LAUNDRY with plumbing for a washing machine and a door into the CONSERVATORY which has delightful views over the gardens and tiled flooring.

The staircase rises from the reception hall to the part galleried landing. The PRINCIPAL SUITE has a DRESSING ROOM with fitted wardrobes and an open arch into a large double bedroom with light corner aspect and an EN-SUITE BATHROOM with circular bath, WC and vanity unit with twin wash basins with cupboards beneath.

Outside - The Oaklands is approached through remote controlled wrought iron gates over a gravelled DRIVEWAY leading to ample parking space in front of the property itself. The driveway continues around to the rear of The Oaklands to a further area of parking and the substantial FOUR BAY GARAGE BLOCK which could be converted for multiple purposes. There is a paved rear courtyard and the extensive GARDEN has sweeping lawns with particularly well plated beds and borders with many fine specimen flowering plants and shrubs. There is a pergola style walkway, rose beds and many fine matured specimen trees.

The gardens are a particular feature of the property and adjoin open fields and farmland and there is a total area with approximately 2.6 acres in total.
