Tucked away at the head of a desirable Oaklands cul-de-sac and set within an impressive plot of approximately half an acre, this attractive detached family home presents a truly rare opportunity.
Offered for the first time in over four decades, it offers excellent potential for modernisation and extension (subject to the necessary permissions) to create a remarkable forever home.

A welcoming porch opens into a generous entrance hallway with an under-stairs storage cupboard and cloakroom with wc. The light-filled living room enjoys triple-aspect windows, a charming inglenook fireplace, and double doors into the conservatory, which overlooks the garden. The dual-aspect dining room, also with a feature fireplace, is positioned at the front of the property, while to the rear, the kitchen offers ample space for a breakfast table, fitted cabinetry, worktops, and some appliances, all while enjoying a delightful garden outlook.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom has been combined with the fourth bedroom to create a spacious dressing room/walk-in wardrobe. A second double bedroom and further single are served by a modern, re-fitted shower room.

The gardens are an exceptional highlight - wrapping around the property and offering a tranquil, private setting with direct access to woodland at the rear. Mature hedges and trees frame large areas of lawn, complemented by paved seating areas perfect for outdoor entertaining. A driveway provides ample parking and leads to two detached garages.
