Hayway Lane, Broadwell

Oak House is an impressive and individually designed five-bedroom detached family home, offering versatile accommodation arranged across three floors. Set behind a generous gravelled driveway with a detached double garage, the property has an attractive red-brick exterior beneath a pitched slate roof, complemented by a distinctive timber-framed entrance and an impressive interior centred around a superb double-height reception hall.

Occupying an established plot on Hayway Lane, the property enjoys a lovely semi-rural feel with gardens to the rear and excellent family accommodation within. The house has been designed to maximise space and natural light, with extensive glazing, a galleried first-floor sitting area and an impressive oak staircase forming a central feature of the home.

A timber-framed entrance porch opens into the striking double-height reception hall, where the oak staircase rises to the galleried landing above. The tiled flooring, tall glazing and open proportions create an immediate sense of space, while the hall incorporates a dining area and provides access to the principal ground-floor rooms.

The drawing room is a well-proportioned reception space with a stone fireplace and French doors overlooking the rear garden. Double doors connect directly with the substantial timber-framed conservatory, which features extensive glazing, a vaulted glazed roof and doors opening onto the garden, providing an excellent additional living and entertaining space.

The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of traditional cabinetry, granite work surfaces, display cupboards and a Rangemaster-style range cooker, with space for a breakfast table. A separate utility room provides further storage and laundry facilities, while the ground floor is completed by a study/family room and guest WC.

The first floor centres around an impressive galleried sitting area overlooking the reception hall below. The principal bedroom is a particularly good-sized double with fitted storage, French doors with a Juliet-style balcony and a sizeable en-suite with twin wash basins. Two further bedrooms are located on this floor, one benefiting from its own en-suite shower room, together with a separate family bathroom.

The second floor provides a further two bedrooms and an additional bathroom, creating a flexible area particularly well suited to older children, guests or home working.

Outside, a generous gravelled frontage provides ample off-road parking and access to the attractive brick-built detached double garage. The garage also benefits from a boarded roof space providing excellent additional storage, making particularly good use of the building beyond the main garage area. The vendors have also added a substantial metal storage building, providing excellent additional storage and offering potential for workshop or hobby use. The established rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn with paved seating areas, mature planting and plenty of room for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Further features include underfloor heating with individual room controls, air conditioning, CAT-5 data cabling and a fire sprinkler system to the ground and first floors.

Oak House is a highly individual family home, combining five bedrooms, four bath/shower rooms, multiple reception spaces, a detached double garage and an impressive three-storey layout, with its double-height reception hall and galleried first floor creating a particularly memorable centrepiece.
