The Street, Warninglid

Oak Cottage is an enchanting period home dating from the 17th century or earlier, offering an abundance of character, historic charm and architectural interest. Featuring traditional tile-hung and brick elevations beneath a pitched roof, the property offers nearly 1,350 sq ft of well-presented accommodation, complemented by a range of useful outbuildings. Throughout, many original features have been retained, including exposed timber framing, latch-and-brace doors, and herringbone brick flooring.

The welcoming reception hall leads into a highly atmospheric sitting room, defined by a heavily beamed ceiling and a magnificent inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove. Flowing from the historic core of the house is a dining room and orangery, flooded with natural light from a roof lantern and opening via French doors to the garden, creating a strong indoor-outdoor connection. Adjoining this is the country-style kitchen with terracotta tiled flooring and fitted shaker-style cabinetry, wooden work surfaces, and a striking green range cooker. A well-proportioned ground-floor double bedroom and a family bathroom complete the accommodation on this level.

To the first floor, there are two characterful double bedrooms, both enjoy vaulted ceilings and exposed timber beams, with the principal bedroom further enhanced by an exposed brick fireplace.

Outside The property is approached via a pretty picket gate with well-stocked borders. The picturesque rear garden is particularly private, featuring a stone-paved terrace ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. Beyond this lies an ornamental pond, mature planting, and a lawn shaded by a mature weeping willow. The property is further complemented by excellent outbuildings, including a timber-clad home office, a substantial garage/store, accessed from a driveway to the side of the property and a charming summer house.
