Welcome to 2 Oakwell Drive, an impressive family home built in 1926 that retains a

family oriented cul-de-sac. Double gates give access to a private driveway with off-
road parking for several cars and leads to a garage that has full electrics.

iron railings. The porch is adorned with original stained glass and character floor
tiles. The front door opens up to a spacious fully tiled, light and spacious hallway
with central staircase. There is a cloakroom to the left of the staircase with the living
rooms and kitchens to the right.

Morning sunlight fills the front living room through an impressive curved bay
window, The room retains its charm and character with the original fireplace with an
‘open- gas fire to keep you warm on those chilly evenings. The original stained
glass is now incorporated into the elegant styled double glazing. The bay windows
overlook the large, mainly lawned front garden and across to the woods.
The rear living room is large, light and airy and is an excellent space for hosting
family or friends. The french doors open out onto the south-west facing private
paved and decked rear garden.
