The integrated double garage has a large remote controlled up and over door, ample space for two cars as well as plenty of storage with additional built-in units and fully boarded loft space above.

OUTSIDE
Perfectly in balance with the property, Oakside boasts delightful and generous gardens both front and back offering the perfect escape from busy life in a truly idyllic setting, all surrounded by the beautiful Warwickshire countryside. In addition to the considerably sized frontage, with its sweeping driveway and very large front gardens, the rear garden is an absolute delight and a complete haven of peace and tranquillity. With Cotswold stone terraces to one side and right across the span of the property, there are several areas for al fresco dining and entertaining.

There are storage sheds to both sides of the property, on the left houses a sit on mower for the meadow, and on the right a large shed for furniture and equipment. There is a gated entrance to one side giving easy access to the front. The main garden is mainly laid to lawn but has an array of mature trees and shrubs. To the centre of the rear garden is a charming double wrought iron gate that leads into a 4.5 acre meadow that is equally owned between the two neighbours either side of you, giving the three properties something very unique and desirable. This meadow has numerous fruit trees, natural grassed areas with wildflowers and wooded areas for children to explore and enjoy, which really is the icing on the cake for this very special family home.
