The Property
Oakfield Lodge is a beautifully renovated, stone-built five-bedroom detached house situated in a peaceful rural yet convenient setting. The house has undergone extensive refurbishment, with high-quality materials and craftsmanship evident throughout. From the spacious, light-filled interiors to the thoughtful layout that maximizes comfort and functionality, Oakfield Lodge stands out as an exceptional family home.

From the front door you are welcomed into a stunning reception hall, complete with stylish herringbone flooring, striking wall panelled features and a staircase to the first floor with a sleek glass balustrade. To the right is a spacious living room, thoughtfully designed to maximize both space and comfort. The room is arranged to create an intimate seating area centered around a contemporary wood-burning stove, beautifully set within a granite fireplace. A striking focal point has been created with set-in alcove storage spaces, cleverly designed to store wood kindling. Across the hall you’ll find a versatile room ideal for use as a designated home office or a separate playroom.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the expansive open plan kitchen and family room, which also features ample space for a formal dining area. The bespoke kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring an array of sleek grey shaker-style floor and wall cabinets, complemented by stunning white quartz countertops. This beautifully designed space includes a classic Belfast sink, an integrated dishwasher, and a state-of-the-art induction hob. Two sets of tower units house twin ovens and multiple wine coolers. A central island provides additional storage and worktop space, while also incorporating breakfast bar seating for casual dining, making it the perfect spot for both cooking and gathering.

The living area within this space is thoughtfully zoned with plush carpeting, creating a cosy and inviting atmosphere. A large stone chimney breast stands as the focal point, showcasing a contemporary wood-burning stove with kindling storage in the alcoves. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer stunning views of the garden and countryside beyond, while French doors provide seamless access. A striking open-tread spiral staircase leads to a well-appointed bar area above, complete with a balcony that serves as an ideal spot for al fresco entertaining.

The ground floor is completed by a large gym, featuring ultra-durable rubber flooring and electric roof windows that open for optimal comfort during workouts. Additionally, a well-equipped utility room includes a convenient WC and shower cubicle, adding both functionality and convenience to this level.

Ascending to the first floor, you are greeted by a spacious landing with vaulted ceiling, that provides access to the second floor and five generously sized, immaculately decorated double bedrooms, each with their own beautifully appointed and stylish en-suite bathrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly inviting, featuring dual aspect windows that frame spectacular views. A large walk-in wardrobe/dressing room provides an added luxury, while the stylish en-suite boasts a large freestanding double-ended copper bath and a separate walk-in shower. On the second floor, you'll find two versatile spaces that are perfect for use as a playroom, additional living area, or, as the current owners have chosen, an occasional bedroom.
