This impressive 4 Bedroom Detached Family Residence is situated on the prestigious 'Oakwood Manor' development, itself approximately one mile from the Station and next door to Mayflower High School with its Outstanding ofsted Report.
All the houses on Oakwood Manor are big family homes built circa 2001 by Alfred McAlpine Homes, representing the last two hundred years of house design - hence Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian styles are all present.
Oakwood Drive is a long cul-de-sac with this particular house in the first mews, enjoying a nice quiet setting on the edge of the development and with its design taken with a nod to the Edwardian era.
Key features of this property include its very private South West facing Garden, integral double Garage (part of which has been converted to a large Hobbies Room), a long Hall with attractive wood flooring and a WC Room, 18ft Lounge with a big walk-in Bay Window, Study, the four Bedrooms (two with Ensuite Bath/Shower Rooms), the Main Family Bathroom with has both a Bath and a separate Shower, and the centrepiece of the property - a stunning 30ft open plan Kitchen/Diner/Family Room with Bi-folding Doors sweeping open to the Garden.
There's a confection of attractive floor coverings; warm wood laminate, beautiful white Marble Porcelain tiling (in the open plan living room/kitchen) and modern soft underfoot carpet, elegant bespoke Plantation Shutters in many rooms, Gas Central Heating via radiators, Grey Gloss Kitchen units topped with White Marble Granite and incorporating Bosch appliances and a feature Wood Burning Stove in the Lounge.
In addition to the potential of a Garage Conversion, a Loft conversion within the tall roof space would be another obvious and affordable way of adding even more room to this property.
Oakwood Manor is also well positioned, with Mayflower School a 1 minute dash, Buttsbury Schools and Norsey Woods both easy 9-10 minute walks, local shops are just 5 minutes on foot and Lake Meadows Park and Stockbrook Manor Golf and Country Club are also within walking distance.
