Snug And Guest Wc - "A Warm Welcome for Guests"
An inviting room that the is currently used as an office and guest room but is also ideal as a permanent guest room or snug.
A new modern guest toilet with counter top sink and ample storage. Behind the door is a mirrored cabinet for all of your guests toiletry needs.
The Principal Suite - At the far left of the top of the stairs is the Principal Master Suite, one of 3 suites. Upon entering, you're greeted by its own hallway with a glimpse of the main bedroom at the far end, but before that, an archway on the left takes you in to the dressing area with extensive ‘his & hers’ open wardrobes and central space for a dressing table. This room has a window so you can get ready to entertain in natural daylight. Opposite the dressing area is the large fully fitted en-suite. His and hers sinks and cabinets on the right with built-in units that sweep around the room to house the WC. On the left is an enclosed double shower. A heated towel radiator and space for your laundry basket completes this room.
Finally, the large king-sized room that has been refurbished in to a modern master bedroom with double ceiling modern style chandeliers in between the large dual aspect windows looking both to the front of the property and out to the rear onto the gardens that house the pool house. A stunning view to wake up to every morning. This gorgeous room is also large enough to feature 2 large 6 drawer units as bedside tables as well as two further drawer units and a coffee station, a must for such a grand room!
Further Suites And Bedrooms - Bedroom two has oodles of storage and an ensuite with a walk-in shower. Bedroom three has an easterly aspect and again enjoys a dressing room and an ensuite. Bedroom four is located on the south side of the property and has picturesque views of the immediate countryside with an ornate fireplace. The family bathroom is of a generous size and is finished in a neutral décor with a bath, low-level WC and basin.
The Family Garden - To the right of the main house sits the less formal of the gardens that approaches approximately 0.3 of an acre (stm) and is strewn with delicious fruit baring trees including apple, cherry, plum, pear and greengage. This area is carpeted with a chamomile dotted lawn that extends over to the rear of the conservatory and kitchen gardens. Beyond the pergola path from the dog’s garden is the extensive kitchen garden that houses raised beds and a poly tunnel, perfect for growing everything you need. Also located discreetly here behind the raspberries and picket fence is the Klargester septic tank.
The Annexe - Previously used as a Boutique Spa, the annexe is currently unused.
It is an ideal space for offices, to re-open the Spa or to create a residential annexe space for a family member (STPP)
Adjacent to the annexe sits the triple garage.
The Mediterranean Garden - Finally we arrive at the stunning landscaped formal Mediterranean spa gardens which includes mature palm trees, a salvia collection and more.
There is a formal lawn area for sunbathing or star gazing, and beyond that, the spa has its own terrace.
The Pool House - "Stunning & Tranquil"
Oak House Opportunities
Oak House is an unrivalled opportunity in the surrounding area. Whether you are looking for an extensive and unique luxury family home or to run a boutique yet potentially lucrative business within the grounds of your own luxury 5 bedroom home, there are very few properties such as this.
There is currently two external swim schools that utilise the swimming pool and would be happy to continue. Further details of this are available.
Please note: The Annexe is on a separate title to the main property (which saves approximately £25,000 in Stamp Duty when buying both properties).
It should also be noted that due to the local plan for housing it is also a prime opportunity to redevelop the entire site or look to create a small private gated development (STPP) – an overage clause will be included.
