A beautifully extended architect-designed home on the edge of the village Oakhurst, an attractive architect-designed property originally built in 1986, returns to the market for the first time since it was last sold in 2012. Constructed with brick elevations beneath a tiled roof, this beautifully presented home has been thoughtfully extended to provide spacious, versatile accommodation, an integral garage and a wonderfully private rear garden. A highlight of the ground floor is the superb kitchen/dining space, featuring a stunning vaulted extension that opens directly onto the terrace—an exceptional setting for modern family living and entertaining. Throughout the home, the layout flows naturally, with well-proportioned rooms and practical additions including a dedicated home office, utility room and ground-floor shower room. Internal Accommodation Ground Floor A welcoming entrance hall sits at the centre of the home, giving access to the principal living areas. To the right, the living room (4.09m × 5.47m) offers generous proportions and a bright, airy feel with a wide bay-style window overlooking the front garden. The adjacent dining room (3.43m × 4.31m) is ideal for family gatherings and links seamlessly with the showpiece kitchen/diner (4.08m × 5.99m). This impressive room features a vaulted dining section with French doors opening onto the terrace and gardens, a central island and extensive work surfaces—perfect for both everyday use and entertaining. A utility room adjoins the kitchen and provides access to a ground-floor shower room, useful after outdoor activities. To the front of the property, the spacious office (2.54m × 5.33m) is ideal for home working or hobbies, and from here you can access the integral garage (2.64m × 5.33m). A ground-floor WC and store room complete the practical layout. First Floor The first-floor landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. The impressive principal bedroom (3.58m × 7.43m) is notably spacious and features fitted wardrobes as well as an en-suite bathroom with both bath and separate shower facilities. The room is large enough to accommodate a dedicated dressing area. There are three further bedrooms: • Bedroom Two (4.08m × 3.70m) – a generous double overlooking the rear garden, with fitted wardrobes • Bedroom Three (3.44m × 3.65m) – a double with built-in wardrobe storage • Bedroom Four (2.57m × 3.70m) – a comfortable single or small double A well-appointed family bathroom and an airing cupboard complete the accommodation.

The front garden is laid to lawn and framed by mature hedging and well-stocked borders, offering an attractive approach and a good degree of privacy. The rear garden is a standout feature, enjoying seclusion from mature hedging and specimen trees.
