Property description

A Victorian double fronted four double bedroom detached Victorian property with three reception rooms, gated off street parking for in excess of six cars, a garage/workshop and a 91ft. by 87ft. rear garden in a village location.

Dating back to the 1800s this former pub known as the Oak Inn has been converted and extended to provide an approximate combined 2,472 sq. ft. of accommodation set over two floors. On the ground floor there is a kitchen/breakfast room with a utility room, a cloakroom and three reception rooms including a dual aspect sitting room, a dining room, and an office. On the first floor all four bedrooms are double, two have fitted wardrobes and there is a four piece bathroom. The sitting room is over 27 ft. in length and could be separated into two rooms; the bathroom could also be divided to create an en suite to the principal bedroom. Period features include bay and dormer windows, high ceilings, skirting boards, dado rails, and decorative coving. Gated access opens to gravel off street parking for over six cars and the outbuilding/workshop is accessed via barn doors providing covered parking for vehicles. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with patio areas for entertaining.

The entrance hall extends from front to rear and provides access to the rear garden. The sitting room is over 27 ft. long, with a box bay window overlooking the front aspect and a window at the rear. The dining room also has a box bay window overlooking the front and an open fireplace with a tiled hearth and wooden mantel surround. The office, accessed from the kitchen is dual aspect and could be a family room. The kitchen has a range of base and wall mounted units, a range oven with five ring gas hob, a dishwasher, a microwave, and wine cooler, along with space for further appliances.

The landscaped rear garden measures 91 ft. by 87 ft. and is enclosed by timber fencing. Mainly laid to lawn with planted borders, it has mature trees and raised vegetable beds. There is a paved and shingle seating area adjacent to the property and two further patio areas providing ample entertaining space.
