Description

Oaktree Lodge is a superbly positioned single storey home in a wonderful, secluded position with delightful views of the village church and Woodbury Common. Designed and built by the current family it now offers an exciting opportunity for the next owners to enhance further or a potential rebuild (subject to necessary planning consents). Inside, there are two wonderfully light reception rooms both enjoying excellent views over the garden with the living room benefiting from an open fire. The kitchen is well equipped and has a good range of wall, base and drawer units, adjacent is a useful utility area with a door leading out to the front. There are four bedrooms in total with two bathrooms and a separate WC. Oaktree Lodge presents an outstanding and intriguing opportunity to create a wonderful family home in a magical setting – a must view.

Perhaps the jewel in the crown is the garden. It is a delight and is surprisingly generous for its village location. To the front is a pretty walled garden with established borders and fruit trees. There is also ample off road driveway parking and a double garage to the north. To the rear, the due south facing garden leads greatly to the orchard and is mostly lawn with an array of mature trees and shrubs creating a private and secluded feel.
