Description

Oban is a deceptively generous, detached chalet-style home providing a flexible and generous layout, that can be arranged to suit individual needs with well-presented and well-balanced accommodation set across two floors.

The area beyond is currently used by our clients as a family room with generous seating area but could of course house a dining table. Windows and single glazed door to one side of the kitchen and French doors to the other end of the room provide the view over and open directly onto, the terrace and garden beyond, creating a very sociable space.

There is a further reception room to the front of the house, which our clients use as a more formal dining room, but this could be a further TV room/snug/playroom or study for today's working from home needs. There are two light spacious bedrooms on the ground floor together with a stylish family bathroom, a further separate WC completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor is home to the sizeable principal bedroom suite, with delightful and far-reaching views over the valley towards Bidborough. There is ample room for bedroom furniture and plenty of storage, with a large walk-in wardrobe and well-appointed en suite shower room.
