The property

Dating from the 1970’s but subsequently extended, Oakfern House offers spacious and flexible family accommodation extending to about 3053 sq.ft. The property has been carefully maintained and improved by the current owners over the last nine years and is now a very comfortable home in lovely gardens in an excellent position within the town.

The ground floor is particularly spacious. Off the reception hall there is a dual aspect sitting room/dining room with refitted fireplace, the family room and the kitchen/breakfast room which has been refitted to an excellent standard. The kitchen has Quartz work surfaces, Karndean flooring an integrated double oven and Quooker boiling water point.Beyond the sitting room is a large study with useful store beyond, and this, combined with the garage, could create a wonderfully spacious self-contained annexe if required. There is also a utility room and a cloakroom. French doors open to the rear from the three principal rooms.

On the first floor, the master bedroom has both an en-suite dressing room and shower room and the spacious guest bedroom also has a newly refitted en-suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms and the family bathroom.
