Oakstone House is a unique 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom contemporary home built
around a Welsh Oak frame with natural Cotswold stone and light rendered
elevations under a Welsh slate roof. The property enjoys beautifully presented
flexible accommodation across three floors, measuring just over 4, 600 sq ft,
with ample room for entertaining, working and relaxing. The house was
completed in 2016 to exacting standards and has the benefit of the remaining
balance of a 10 year NHBC guarantee. Of particular note on the ground floor is
the hall, which provides a lovely entrance into the house, rising in part to
full height and is flooded with cascading natural light. On the second floor,
the kitchen/family room and drawing room are sensational, with high vaulted
ceilings exposing fabulous Oak rafters and beams, and have the best views of
all. Other highlights include the hand - crafted kitchen by Woodchester
Kitchens; a 4 person lift with the ability to take a wheelchair to all floors;
the potential to create a self - contained flat on the ground floor; access to
ground level from every floor; a Sonor sound system and the house is thermally
very efficient due to thermal glass, exceptional insulation and efficient
heating system.
Gardens and grounds: The house is approached via a tarmac drive which sweeps
up from Atcombe Road between Cotswold stone walls to a three bay extra wide
carport with plenty of parking and turning space in front. The first part of
the drive is owned by the neighbouring property and there is an electrical
connection for driveway gating, if required. Above the carport there is a
large studio/workshop and to one side there are some useful outbuildings,
including a mower shed, log store and garden shed. Immediately in front of the
house there is a wide flagstone paved terrace, flanked by clipped Box hedges
and flower borders. The garden has been professionally landscaped and planted
for ease of maintenance. A gravel path winds it's way up to the southwest of
the house to a second sun terrace and on up to the top of the garden where
there is a third paved patio positioned to capture the last of the afternoon
sun. There is an area of lawn at the top, part of which is shaded by a mature
Lime tree. Both the driveway and garden paths have lighting installed.
