5 bedroom detached house for sale

Sleek, chic and gorgeous, every element of Oak Tree revolves round the abundance of free-flow space liberally flooded with natural light.

There’s more than 4,000 sq ft of beautifully designed and presented accommodation within this superb family home – totally rebuilt with meticulous attention to detail four years ago by the current owners.

Space and luxury is centre-stage in the design of this attractive detached two-storey house.  Generously-sized rooms abound and the large eat-in kitchen is the star of the show with approx 25ft square of super-cool, super-useful space lined with the highest-quality cabinetry, integral Siemens appliances and a chic L-shaped marbled granite island.

A valuable and flexible extra is a detached two-storey brick-built double garage (24x20ft) which the vendors converted to live in while the building work on the house was underway in 2020.  With electrics and air conditioning/climate-controlled heating, plumbing for a kitchen, a separate shower room and a staircase to the first floor.  It would be a simple matter to reinstate it for use as a granny annexe, guest accommodation or an AirBnB-style holiday let – there’s plenty of demand in this picturesque location.

The gardens of Oak Tree revolve round a fabulous paved terrace and lawns.

A spacious oasis of tranquillity and light

In smart white render and red brick with solar panels on the roof, Oak Tree stands well back from the quiet country road and is reached via a lengthy gravelled driveway which culminates in a generous amount of parking space in front of the garage.  The electrics are in place for installing an electric gate to the driveway if desired.

The hallway flows open-plan into the hub of the home, the breathtakingly impressive kitchen appears seamlessly at one with the surrounding countryside thanks to the two sets of bifolds occupying one corner – slide these back in the summer months to create that desirable indoors-meets-outdoors connection.

There’s an extensive range of Harvey Jones’ top-of-the-range ‘Linear Edge’ hand-crafted dove grey cabinetry along one wall and forming the super-sized L-shaped central island topped with marbled granite that wraps round at either end. Integral appliances include double ovens, microwave, warming drawer and dishwasher, all by Siemens.

This huge light-and-airy room is sure to be at the centre of family life and entertaining - there’s loads of space to create a comfy snug area if desired.  Just add a big L-shaped sofa, coffee table and a wall-mounted TV for relaxing, chatting and viewing.  Dining is already taken care of with the upholstered banquette which forms part of the island unit – all it needs is a nice big rectangular table and a few more dining chairs to create the perfect spot for everything from casual suppers to candlelit dinner parties.

Time for bed . . .

Upstairs, there’s an emphasis on flooding the bedrooms with as much natural light as possible and making the most of the superb views.

Leading the way is the principal bedroom suite, an oasis of indulgence and calm to retreat to at any time of the day.  Measuring 26x34ft, there’s room for the biggest of beds, perhaps a sofa for relaxing with a book, and a personal desk too.  With large bifold windows at either end to seamlessly capture the views, this dreamy haven is complemented by a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a super-sized digitally-controlled walk-in shower and top-notch VitrA fittings including a twin-basin vanity unit.  There’s underfloor heating and a separate walk-in wardrobe.

Glorious gardens filled with potential

Safely fenced and hedged, there’s loads of space for children to run and play in the gardens of Oak Tree with a huge expanse of lawn stretching to the right and another to the left, abutting the extra-large paved patio which spans the entire width of the house.

Round and about

At Oak Tree you can enjoy all the benefits of life in the country in tandem with close proximity to the thriving and historic spa town of Droitwich, just a couple of miles away.

Wonderful walks are a given in this picturesque rural area, and there’s a variety accessed directly from the house including alongside the pretty Droitwich canal.

Make the short run into town to do the supermarket shop and browse the great mix of independent and chain stores on the bustling high street.

Education is always a priority for families and you strike lucky in Ladywood being in the catchment area of Hindlip CE First School, which is Ofsted-rated outstanding. The nearest secondary school is Droitwich Spa High School, rated good.  There are some excellent independent schools in the close vicinity too including The River School, RGS Dodderhill, The King’s School and Royal Grammar School.

This a great area for families with lots of things for you and the children to do.  Churchfields Farm Park is a favourite with its farm animals, adventure playground, go-karts and cafe.  The farm proprietors have also reinstated artisan salt production to Droitwich, which owes its existence to the natural brine springs which emanate from subterranean beds of pure rock salt 2,000ft below the ground which are forced to the surface as brine.  Its density and buoyancy are only rivalled by the Dead Sea.

With quick access to the M5 and mainline railway services from both Droitwich and Worcester, this is a great location for commuters and families alike.
