The small rural village of St Michaels, has an active community with village hall and church. A full range of everyday amenities can be found approximately three miles away in the market town of Tenbury Wells. The historic town of Ludlow is within easy reach and is renowned for its independent shops, vibrant festivals and gastronomic reputation with the cathedral cities of Hereford and Worcester also within striking distance.
Oak House is positioned at the end of a quiet lane, giving access to just five properties. This beautiful barn conversion exudes character throughout.
From the approach across a private gravelled driveway you are immediately impressed by the pretty half timbered frontage. A canopied porch, leads you through the front door into the welcoming reception hallway with flagstone flooring and staircase giving access to a galleried landing on the the first floor. The dining room has windows to the front and rear elevations and has a stone fireplace with beam above and woodburning stove in situ.
Through to the main sitting room with a vaulted ceiling, and large stone inglenook fireplace housing a woodburning stove and a feature timber truss as well as exposed ceiling timbers. Beyond this is the rear conservatory, which enjoys looking out over the rear garden and benefits from under floor heating and electrically operated roof blinds.
At the other end of the hallway is a cosy snug with doors leading onto the terrace and downstairs cloakroom with WC.
The kitchen breakfast room has been fitted with a good range of base and wall units, double waist height oven, inset hob with extractor over, integrated fridge and dishwasher.
An inner hallway with door to outside offers potential for a separate self contained annexe with its own access if that was required. Doors lead to the utility room, wet room with shower, WC and wash basin and a bed/sitting room with windows overlooking the patio and garden.
The galleried landing on the first floor offers a fantastic space for a sitting area or alternatively home office. There is a wide bowed window to the front and a further window overlooking the rear garden.
The primary bedroom has built in wardrobes and an ensuite bathroom. There is a further double bedroom and two single bedrooms, which could also be used for a home office if required. There is a separate family bathroom which comprises bath, separate shower, WC and wash hand basin.
Outside, the property sits in approximately an acre. There is a large driveway giving access to the detached oak framed double garage and log store. The well maintained garden is predominantly laid to lawn interspersed with a number of mature trees and bordered by hedging. Immediately behind the property is a patio area, perfect for entertaining during the summer months. From the gardens are some lovely views to the surrounding countryside and on two sides the property adjoins farmland.
