The Oaks has been restored exquisitely, showing great care and craftsmanship throughout. The current owners have made a wonderful balance, juxtaposing the old with the new, incorporating many modern ways of living, including installing solar panels.

The moment one enters through the bespoke wooden electric gates, there is a great sense of grandeur and space. The gardens have been meticulously designed to create a wonderful balance between beauty and low maintenance, with stunning lawns down to the hidden paddock beyond, separated by the delightful blackberry hedges.

One’s eye is instantly drawn to the magnificent front door of The Oaks which brings you into the glass entrance hall leading to a spacious and bright vaulted family room, with bi-folding doors onto the sheltered terraced garden. An office and sitting room are also located off the entrance hall, both with access to the gardens. The rear hall accommodates the guest cloakroom, leading through to the heart of the house, the kitchen/dining room. The kitchen has been fitted exquisitely, with top of the range appliances from Neff, including a five ring Induction hob, four ovens (Including, microwave and steam oven), two dishwaters and an American-Style fridge freezer. The centre of the kitchen is the stunning central island, that incorporates a breakfast bar/workspace. The dining space within this open plan kitchen is strategically separated by the gorgeous exposed red brick, and vaulted wooden ceiling, creating a social entertaining space, with the added benefit of bi-folding doors that integrates the outside for those summer months. The utility room has built in cupboards, fitted with a washing machine and tumble dryer.

The first floor is approached from the stairs between the kitchen and sitting room, where you will find the light filled master suite with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams with a plethora of built-in wardrobes as well as a mezzanine dressing area. The Master ensuite bathroom is fitted with a large Duravit roll top bath, walk-in shower, WC and a wash hand basin. The second double bedroom has triple bespoke built-in wardrobes and an exceptional bathroom ensuite with walk in shower. The third double bedroom also has an ensuite shower room. The Fourth and Fifth bedrooms are located within the West wing of the house, off the family room, with their own living area and kitchenette. They also have their own access to a private terrace, creating the potential to be used as an annex.

The two gyms and Sauna link the main house to the large barn, that currently used for storage. Opposite the main house, across the courtyard garden are the converted stable blocks, all fully insulated with electricity and stunning finishes mirroring those of the main house. They are currently being used as a music room, home office, and sophisticated workshops & garaging. Additionally, these rooms provide excellent additional accommodation and could easily be converted to residential use, subject to necessary planning consent.

To the front of the house the gravel drive leads to a roundabout with ample parking. Including a double carport and a single lockable garage.

The whole extends to approximately 5.6 acres. Including 1.18 acres of landscaped gardens.

The Old Coach house and stables to the East of the house have great potential with its own separate access (STTP)
