Description
Hidden at the end of a quiet country lane in the prized conservation village of Hoby, Oak House is a beautifully composed village home set within mature gardens approaching one-third of an acre and surrounded by open countryside on two sides. Offering rare privacy and a profound sense of calm, the property captures the essence of refined rural living while remaining remarkably well connected.
Recently refreshed, the house offers light-filled interiors designed for both elegant entertaining and relaxed everyday living. A welcoming entrance hall leads to a contemporary kitchen and informal living space - the heart of the home - opening onto a sheltered terrace for seamless indoor-outdoor living. A triple-aspect drawing room enjoys garden views throughout the seasons and flows into a sun-filled conservatory, while a further reception room provides flexibility as a dining room, library or home office. Practical elements are thoughtfully integrated, including a utility room, double garage and discreet lift providing step-free access between floors.
Upstairs, four well-proportioned double bedrooms provide calm and comfort. The principal suite enjoys dual-aspect views towards the village church alongside a dressing area and private en-suite, complemented by a separate guest suite ideal for visitors or multi-generational living. Two further bedrooms are served by a family shower room.
Beyond electric gates, secluded south-west facing gardens create a private sanctuary with mature planting, generous parking, a double garage, and a stable completing the setting.
