Six bedrooms plus second‑floor snug (potential extra bedroom)
Oak Lodge is a substantial six-bedroom detached family home on a large plot in Layer‑de‑la‑Haye, offering flexible living across three reception rooms, a garden room and a second‑floor snug. The house sits within a quiet village setting with excellent broadband and mobile coverage, very low local crime and attractive views over meadowland and Abberton Reservoir from some rooms.
Accommodation includes an 18ft kitchen, a 19ft dining room, two family bathrooms and generous built‑in storage, plus a double garage, brick‑paved double driveway and several timber outbuildings useful for workshops or storage. The property is freehold and well‑suited to a growing family who need space for home working, hobbies or vehicles.
The house retains 1950s character features such as leaded‑light casement windows, timber floors and brick fireplaces, which will appeal to buyers seeking period charm. The upstairs snug under the pitched roof offers potential as an additional bedroom if required, increasing flexible usage to suit changing household needs.
Practical points to note: the EPC rating is E, so energy performance is below modern standards and upgrading may be needed. The property reflects its post‑war age and will benefit from cosmetic modernisation in places rather than being a turnkey modern home. With only two bathrooms for six bedrooms, some buyers may wish to add an en‑suite or reconfigure space to increase bathroom provision.
