A Distinguished Residence Offering Space, Style and Heritage! Set upon a generous plot, this remarkable family home combines refined interiors with extensive living accommodation. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the quality and scale on offer.

Dating back to 1840, ‘Oakleigh’ is an elegant six-bedroom semi-detached residence that has been meticulously refurbished to an exceptional standard, featuring high-quality fittings throughout. Ideally positioned in Childer Thornton, the property benefits from convenient access to the M53 motorway, local amenities, and excellent transport connections. For added peace of mind, the home is equipped with CCTV.

The property is approached via a spacious gravel driveway, providing ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. Well-maintained front lawns extend alongside the drive and are framed by mature, protected trees, affording a high degree of privacy.

Upon entering, the home immediately impresses with its refined décor and attractive period detailing, including decorative cornicing throughout. The principal reception room is generously proportioned, featuring plush carpeting and large bay windows that flood the space with natural light. Additional reception areas include a comfortable sitting room and a substantial family room, complete with a Hunter log-burning stove. The dining room, also enhanced by a log burner, offers an ideal setting for formal entertaining.

The kitchen-dining area is beautifully appointed, boasting immaculate work surfaces, a central island, and classic shaker-style units, complemented by a separate pantry. The utility room, accessible via the hallway, is fitted with oak worktops and a traditional Belfast sink, and incorporates a convenient two-piece washroom. From the hallway, stairs lead down to a cellar, providing two practical storage rooms.

All six bedrooms are generously sized doubles, tastefully decorated in neutral palettes and benefiting from excellent natural light. Four bedrooms retain charming original fireplaces, while a connecting room between the second and fifth bedrooms features built-in wardrobes. The first floor is served by a contemporary family bathroom and a separate shower room, both finished to a high specification with modern three-piece suites.

Externally, the rear of the property offers an inviting patio area, ideal for outdoor seating and entertaining. The expansive lawn is complemented by a variety of established shrubs and fruit trees. A gravelled section houses three dedicated vegetable plots, while the remnants of a former outbuilding present an exciting opportunity for redevelopment, subject to the previously granted planning permission.
