Oak Ridge has been substantially improved by the current owners. All rooms benefit from, 28mm hardwood, double-glazed units. Its contemporary feel is achieved through a combination of modern flooring and lighting, and by the way each living space leads naturally to the next, centring upon the large open plan living room. The abundance of office, work and storage space on the ground floor level make this an ideal property for those who need work or hobby space.
The property is south facing with around 1 acre of garden at the front and approximately 2 acres of woodland to the rear.
The grounds attract an amazing number of birds, with slow worms in the meadow, and badgers in the woods. Naturally managed, the owners have created an easy to maintain plot, despite its size.

The vegetable plot and garden shed are discreetly located behind an established beech hedge.
Behind the driveway is a raised grassy bank awash with wild flowers and daffodils in the spring. A path meanders up into an oak woodland, designated ancient due the species diversity.
