Oak Trees, Oulston York YO61 3RG

Oak Trees is a splendid package, offering perfect country living. Originally built in the 1950s it has been fully renovated by the current owners and was extended in 2009 by the addition of a stunning oak-framed garden room.

The house has been a happy family home for many years and is now ready for a new owner. It will appeal because of its generous space and glorious position. The panoramic 360-degree view is the prevailing feature of the house; to the south west the view sweeps across to Harrogate and beyond and to the south east lie the rolling Howardian Hills in the middle distance.

•Substantial brick built house with glorious gardens and grounds
•Large master bedroom suite with bathroom, dressing room and balcony
•4 bedroom family accommodation with 3 bathrooms
•3 acre paddock to the south and west of the house
•Smallbone of Devizes kitchen with 4-oven Aga.

Outside
The house is approached via a gravel drive with electric gates, leading to a broad sweep by the pillared front door. A further drive leads to the oak-framed outbuilding built in 2002. There are large lawns on two sides, with a substantial formal pond in the centre of the garden, well stocked with water lilies - it’s the perfect backdrop for an English country garden. The paddock is fenced and can also be accessed via the lower drive.
