About this listing

A home with history, character and far more space than you might expect. Dating back to the 1830s, when it served as the Gardener’s Cottage for the historic Fair Oak Park Estate, this charming property has since been beautifully reimagined for modern family living. Extending to just under 2,000 sq ft, the four-bedroom home successfully blends period character with generous, versatile and highly sociable accommodation. Tucked away within a private close in one of Fair Oak’s most desirable semi-rural settings, the property enjoys an excellent degree of privacy while remaining conveniently positioned for the village and its amenities. From the moment you step inside, there is an immediate sense of light, space and flexibility, with the accommodation thoughtfully arranged to suit both everyday family life and entertaining. At the heart of the home is the impressive kitchen and entertaining space. Bright, sociable and full of character, the kitchen features a substantial central island beneath a striking lantern roof light, creating a natural focal point. This flows seamlessly into a series of interconnected reception spaces, currently arranged to provide a formal dining area and an impressive entertainment space complete with pool table. Together, they create a fantastic setting for everything from relaxed family life to larger gatherings. Leading from the dining area is a cleverly concealed utility room, allowing white goods and everyday practicalities to remain neatly tucked away from the principal living spaces. An adjoining study overlooks the rear garden, providing an ideal work-from-home environment or a peaceful retreat away from the main social areas. The separate sitting room offers an altogether cosier atmosphere, retaining plenty of character and centred around a beautiful open fireplace, complemented by stylish shutters. An additional reception room, currently utilised as the fourth bedroom, provides further flexibility and could equally serve as a guest room, playroom or snug. A downstairs cloakroom and practical area for coats and shoes complete the ground-floor accommodation. Upstairs, the principal bedroom provides a calm and luxurious retreat, featuring fitted furniture, shutters and a feature fireplace, together with a stylish en-suite shower room incorporating a generous double shower. There are two further well-proportioned bedrooms, with bedroom two also benefitting from bespoke fitted wardrobes. These are served by a beautifully appointed four-piece family bathroom. Outside, the south-facing rear garden is another particular highlight. Private and enclosed, it combines a generous lawn with a paved terrace and established planted borders, providing an excellent setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and family life while enjoying plenty of sunshine throughout the day. To the front, a private driveway provides off-road parking for up to four vehicles. Overall, this is a wonderfully individual period home that combines its historic origins with the space, versatility and open-plan living increasingly sought after by modern families.
