Situation

Oakdene is located on the edge of Little London, a small but very popular village located to the north of Basingstoke, within catchment for the highly regarded Priory Primary School. Independent schools locally include Sherfield, Daneshill, Elstree, Bradfield College and Cheam.
Within a few minutes on foot, there is a lovely country pub and access to excellent walks across Silchester Common and Pamber Forest, a designated nature reserve. The neighbouring village of Silchester is renowned for its Roman origins, with scenic walks beside the ruins of Calleva Atrebatum.

Nearby Bramley village has some shops and the small nearby town of Tadley has a range of facilities catering for most day-to-day requirements, including a supermarket.

Basingstoke itself offers a comprehensive range of leisure, recreational and educational facilities.
There is good access for commuting with the M3 and M4 being a short distance away, and the mainline railway station in Basingstoke provides fast and frequent services to London Waterloo and nearby Bramley and Mortimer stations providing connections for Reading.

The property

Oakdene is a delightful cottage, full of character and charm and offering surprisingly spacious accommodation which extends to about 1307 sq.ft. Dating, we believe from the 1930’s, the property was substantially extended and remodelled by the current owners in 2005 and is now offered for sale with no onward chain. The property is located on the edge of the village, overlooking farmland to both front and rear. It has a particularly large rear garden with a south-easterly orientation.

On the ground floor, the front door opens to the reception hall with the dual aspect office/occasional bedroom to one side, with a Jack and Jill cloakroom and a sitting room with an attractive log burner to the other. The kitchen has a breakfast bar, Ragemaster cooker and offers a comprehensive range of units. Leading off the kitchen through stable doors is a utility room and dining room. The utility room has access to the Jack and Jill cloakroom, a side door and the dining room. The Dining room has French doors opening on to the rear patio and garden.

On the first floor, the master bedroom with built in wardrobes overlooks the rear garden and has an en-suite shower room. There is a family bathroom, two further double bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room.

For further information please refer to the floorplan.

Outside

To the front, there is a driveway offering off street parking and a grass area with hedging. A side gate with pedestrian access leads to a patio at the rear. The garden is unexpectedly large, with a small pond area, 1 plum and 3 apple trees. Over 400ft in length, the garden is level and laid primarily to lawn, extending beyond the neighbouring property to overlook fields at the far end. Mature hedges, shrubs and trees, offer a high degree of privacy.

Services: Mains water, drainage and electricity. Oil central heating.
