Once a pair of cottages forming part of the Knightley Grange Estate, The Oak House has been extensively extended, refurbished and remodelled to create an exceptional family home set in an extensive plot. A range of recent additions include an indoor swimming pool, detached triple garage and a cinema room.
Set between Gnosall and Eccleshall yet only a few miles from Stafford, The Oak House is set in the middle of a parkland plot extending to over 3.5 acres which provides an enviable rural setting.
Entered via an oak framed porch, the inner hall opens to a spacious sitting room which is complete with original beamed ceiling and inglenook fireplace with wood burner inset. The kitchen breakfast room is found off the opposite side of the inner hall, and includes a range of bespoke wall, floor and island cabinetry all set beneath a granite work surface. There is a range of integrated appliances including oven, microwave, dishwasher, hob, and Range oven. A handy utility and guest WC are found off the kitchen area. The remodelled rear section of the house leads directly off the kitchen, to provide flexible and open plan accommodation which is ideal for modern day living. A family area with plenty of space for seating includes oak framed double doors to the garden, whilst a spacious dining area with an abundance of space for entertaining continues on. There is a further snug / playroom found of the end of the dining area, again with doors to the garden.
The rear hallway leads to the back door, and in turn the entertainment wing which is an outstanding space. The cinema room offers vaulted ceilings and space for oversized seating, while there is a study / home office off. The swimming pool can be accessed internally from the study, or externally via seven sets of double doors which lead to the front and rear gardens. Alongside the pool area is a steam room and sauna as well as a shower room / changing room.
Stairs rise to the first floor off the open plan area, and lead to a roomy landing. The principal bedroom is filled with natural light via a full glass gable. There is a range of fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. There are a further four bedrooms at first floor level and a further bedroom with sitting room at second floor level, all of which are served by the family bathroom.
Externally, The Oak House sits in grounds of approx. 3.6 acres which incorporates a gated driveway, triple garage block with games room above and various seating areas. The remainder of the grounds are laid to lawn and offer outstanding panoramic views.
