Description - Oakwood Grange is an exceptionally well presented detached barn conversion of immense charm and character with a most useful outbuilding (providing a double open fronted garage, home office and first floor annexe), gardens and pony paddock extending, in all, to just under 1.5 acres, enjoying lovely views over open countryside in a most popular semi-rural location.

Furthermore, there is planning permission approved for a substantial two storey extension which could be initiated by a purchaser in the future the planning ref: 19/01999/FUL. The property benefits from a ceramic tiled floor throughout downstairs with underfloor heating system and zone control.
Outside, the property is complimented by an impressive entrance with electrically operated double gates with intercom system leading to an extensive gravelled parking and manoeuvring area to the rear of the property, fronted by a most useful oak framed outbuilding which provides an open fronted double garage and Home office on the ground floor together with self-contained annexe accommodation on the first floor, ideal for guest accommodation or, potentially, as a holiday let etc (subject to Local Authority consent).
Immediately adjacent to the gardens is the land which provides a single enclosure of permanent pasture, ideal for the grazing of a variety of animals, particularly a horse or pony. There is a timber machinery storage shed which could be utilised as stabling, if required.
