OAKWOOD House is a classic Georgian grade II listed house in the centre of the popular village of Gilling West.

This elegant family home, set over three storeys, is believed to date from the late 17th Century (with some later additions). The retention of many of its period features – including sliding sash windows, panelled walls, fireplaces and ceiling beams – serves to enhance both its character and its charm.

The downstairs accommodation briefly comprises three good-sized reception rooms – a dining hall, drawing room and sitting room – plus a utility room, a shower room and a breakfast kitchen with stairs leading to the cellar.

Upstairs are four bedrooms (one of which has an en-suite shower room), plus a family bathroom. The top floor is given over to an attic.

Outside Oakwood House provides a haven of tranquility for those who like to make the most of the outdoor space. It is home to a mature walled garden and a sheltered terrace ideal for alfresco dining. Adjoining the north-east corner of the garden is a derelict chapel with planning consent for rebuilding as a house. This is available for separate negotiation if desired.

Oakwood House is on the market at a guide price of £525,000. For more information or to arrange a viewing, please contact Jackson Stops on 01325 489948.
