About this property

Lovely family home in peaceful location, backing onto ancient woodland with sweeping circular driveway, double garage and large garden and grounds extending to about 3.2 acres. The house is spacious & very light, with scope to extend. It has the benefit of a ground floor bedroom, and a superb living room which runs across the whole width offering great views of the rear garden and woodland beyond.

The impressive approach to the property is along a sweeping driveway through spacious lawned areas culminating in a turning circle with ample parking. Inside, the house is well-maintained with generous living spaces yet with ample scope to extend or modify for future growth.

You enter into a large central entrance hall with a half-landing staircase and a spacious built in cloak cupboard. The reception spaces include a bright living room and adjoining dining room stretching the full width of the house. The living room features a Jotul wood-burning fireplace and double doors leading to the rear terrace and grounds. There is a well-appointed kitchen to the front with a large walk-in larder and separate utility room. In addition, the ground floor houses a cloakroom and good-size double bedroom with en-suite. Upstairs leads to the central vaulted family/study space with double doors which open onto a large balcony overlooking the beautiful garden and woodland beyond. There are three double bedrooms including a generous principal bedroom benefiting from its own en-suite bathroom and triple built-in wardrobes, and a large family bathroom.

Outside
The property is at the end of a country lane, providing excellent privacy and seclusion, and boasts a large double garage, summer house, shed, ample lawned gardens, and driveway with a circular turning circle. There is a public footpath leading to ancient woodland beyond which passes through the grounds to the north of the house and also provides an access for the Dragons Estate. To the front and side of the property there is an additional area of garden and woodland that has an impressive display of bluebells each Spring. In all the whole extends to about 3.2 acres.

Situation
Nestled just to the west of Southwater village and only 4 miles from central Horsham, Oakwood is a fantastic family home that perfectly combines charming rural appeal with modern living. The house is a private and peaceful retreat, surrounded by open fields and ancient woodland, but still with excellent links to the A24, A27, and London Gatwick airport, making it a great choice for commuters.
