5 bed detached house for sale

Axes Lane, Salfords RH1

Oakdene is a charming Grade II listed medieval barn conversion full of character. Originally constructed in circa 1432, it was stylishly converted in 2005 to create an impressive family home with the later addition of a two storey extension in 2010. The property was also subject to a report by English Heritage in 2008 as being of architectural interest and local historical importance.

The property boasts many original features and combines these with contemporary design. Converted to a high specification and lovingly maintained, its notable features include exposed beams, vaulted ceilings, open tread stairwells, a galleried landing, full height windows to the living area, underfloor heating throughout and remote controlled mood lighting. The property also benefits from all mains services and is offered chain free.

The accommodation includes four bedrooms with the upstairs master suite accessed via its own stairwell. The ground floor features a double bedroom with ensuite, a family room/fifth bedroom, utility room, cloakroom and stunning open plan reception area with French Doors that access a private patio area. A second stairwell provides access to an open galleried landing and upstairs is completed by the remaining two bedrooms and family bathroom.

Externally, there is off road parking to the front and a gated driveway leads to a heritage style double garage to the rear with further parking. The attractive south facing garden extends to circa one third of an acre and benefits from a rural setting and countryside views.

Location is always key and it is no exception here. The property is close to the thriving market towns of Redhill, Reigate & Horley, which offer residents a great mix of local amenities and excellent transport links. Salfords station provides services to London and the south coast, Gatwick airport is nearby and the M25 and M23 are within easy access.
