Description

Occupying a delightful countryside position in the sought-after village of Fairfield, Oakley is a charming Grade II listed double-fronted period home combining character, space and versatility in a truly attractive rural setting. Set within beautifully maintained gardens and further complemented by a paddock of approximately one acre situated directly opposite the property, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy village living with the added benefit of substantial outdoor space.

The accommodation is centred around a welcoming entrance hall with staircase rising to the first floor. To the front of the property, the elegant living room enjoys high ceilings, decorative cornicing, a feature fireplace with wood-burning stove and a large sash-style window overlooking the garden. A second reception room offers excellent flexibility and is currently utilised as an additional sitting room, although it could equally serve as a formal dining room, family room or home office if desired.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of units and connects directly to the adjoining garden room, a bright and inviting space with glazed roof and doors opening onto the garden, currently arranged as a dining area and perfectly positioned to enjoy the surrounding outlook.

A particular feature of the home is the impressive first-floor landing, centred around a graceful curved staircase and large feature window that fills the space with natural light. Three well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged off the landing, including a spacious principal bedroom with dual-aspect outlook, whilst the family bathroom serves the bedroom accommodation.

Outside, the property enjoys a generous driveway providing parking together with access to a double garage. The mature gardens have been thoughtfully maintained and create a wonderful setting for outdoor entertaining, relaxation and family life.

Further enhancing the appeal is a paddock of approximately one acre located directly opposite the property, providing excellent potential for equestrian, recreational or hobby use.

Paddock Information: We have been informed by the seller that the paddock opposite the property is included within the sale and will be transferred subject to an overage provision in favour of the seller. The overage will apply for a period of 20 years from completion and entitle the seller to 20% of any uplift in value arising from future development. Further details will be provided by the seller's solicitor.

Surrounded by attractive Worcestershire countryside, Fairfield offers an enviable lifestyle with a network of public footpaths and countryside walks nearby. Pepper Wood is easily accessible from the lane, providing wonderful opportunities for walking, riding and exploring the local landscape. The village benefits from a popular pub, village hall and well-regarded schooling, including Fairfield First School, rated Good by Ofsted, whilst Fairfield Pre-School operates from the neighbouring village hall and is also rated Good. Bromsgrove town centre, rail connections and wider transport links are all within easy reach.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
