The property is surrounded by approximately 20 acres of formal grounds and paddock land, serviced by an extensive ranges of stable, outbuildings and garages that have been lovingly cared for by the same family for 81 years.
In addition to this is Chevron Cottage, a modern dwelling reflecting the countryside location with its picturesque design. The house, cottage and outbuildings amount to approx. 9000 sq ft with enviable, far-reaching views towards the coast.
Crows Oak has been sympathetically remodelled and extended to around 3,500 sq ft from the original thatched farm workers cottage which dates back to 1696. Off the hallway, the impressive, double aspect sitting room features a large bay window and gas fire with stone fireplace.
The formal dining room also boasts a delightful bay window and adjoins the kitchen/family room. There is also a snug/library with exposed brick fireplace off the reception hall which was the sitting room of the original cottage.
The superb open plan kitchen/family room is the heart of the home with spacious sitting and dining areas, and panoramic windows offering views to the garden. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room with a sink, a further range of units and a pantry. Also on the ground floor is a spacious double bedroom with dressing room and ensuite shower room.

There are a further 3 double bedrooms and 2 single bedrooms, 3 of which have built in storage, and a family bathroom with a basin, WC, spa bath and corner shower unit.
Crows Oak enjoys a paved terrace and mature, formal gardens. Areas for relaxation and dining have been thoughtfully incorporated, with a sectioned-off vegetable garden/ children’s play area, two summer houses, a large greenhouse and outside dining area, defined by climbing roses. The grounds are serviced by a substantial oak-framed triple garage, single garage, and extensive driveway.
