Description

Oakland House is a handsome and impressive modern house, originally constructed in 2002 but having recently been the subject of extensive renovation, including rewiring and re-plumbing, resulting in spacious and well-configured contemporary accommodation finished to a particularly high standard. The property is situated in a popular private road on the outskirts of East Grinstead, within easy reach of the town centre yet in a most rural and tranquil setting. Points of note include:

• High-tech features such as underfloor heating, recessed lighting, LED marker lights, Cat 5 wiring providing internet facility in most rooms, and Sonos multi-room digital music system throughout much of the house. Quality materials throughout including granite, extensive oak joinery including the staircases and doors, tiled hallway and Karndean flooring in the kitchen and utility room.
• A solid oak front door opens to the entrance hall, from which an elegant, bespoke central staircase, with deep understair cupboard, rises to the first floor. Lying off the hall is an inviting sitting room and a cloakroom.
• Glazed double doors lead from the hall to the impressive drawing room which in turn has double doors opening to the conservatory and features a classic limestone fireplace with slate hearth and gas, coal effect fire.
• Dining room with tiled floor and two doors opening from the hall.
• Lying to the rear of the house and with French doors opening to the terrace is a contemporary breakfast room/bar, complemented by LED mood lighting, with walnut corner bar and matching walnut breakfast table with fitted seating set against a curved wall.

Outside

Oakland House is approached from Coombe Hill Road via electrically operated wrought iron gates, which open to a block paved parking area in front of the house and give access to the integral double garage, with electrically operated, twin up and over doors. To the front of the house is an area of lawn, interspersed with young oak trees and bounded by post and rail fencing and laurel hedging. A pathway, flanked by colourful flower borders, leads to the front door.

There is gated pedestrian access around the north-eastern side of the house to the rear garden. A paved terrace lies adjacent to the rear of house, leading out to an expanse of lawn and with a timber garden shed lying to the south west of the house. The garden adjoins the communal paddock and is enclosed by close-board and post and rail fencing. Total plot about 0.43 of an acre.

The owners of Oakland House, together with their immediate neighbours and residents at Coombe Hall have the private use of the paddock lying to the north west of the property, as well as the woodland with pond to the south west and the tennis courts adjoining Coombe Hall.
