Introduction Summary:
Oak Tree House is a stunning five bedroom family home, finished to the highest of standards in the extremely desirable location of Datchet, just five minutes from Windsor Castle.
Accommodation Summary:
This exquisite property has just been finished to the highest of standards to create the ultimate family home, with no expense spared.
Oak Tree House benefits from an exceptionally large open plan lounge, dining and kitchen area, separate gym / annexe, large gardens, driveway parking for five vehicles, and a spacious garage. This is a luxuriously well appointed executive home with particularly large proportions considering its central village location.
Set in a secluded cul-de-sac of just four properties, the house sits across from the village recreation ground only 80 ft away. Travel home from central London in under an hour, turn into the private road and pause to breathe in the feeling that you have escaped into the warm embrace of a rural idyll.
With five bedrooms and optional sixth bedroom and ensuite on the ground floor, the property truly has everything to offer the family or professional who wants to enjoy the benefits of easy access to the city and a short riverside walk into Windsor.
Ground Floor:
As you enter the property, you are greeted by an expansive entrance hall laid with herringbone flooring warmed by underfloor heating, which leads on to the open plan room. Like everything in Oak Tree House, the dimensions of the open plan kitchen, lounge and dining room are luxurious. It is a truly incredible space. Uplifting for day to day family life, it is also perfect for entertaining friends and family at social gatherings and hosting special occasions.
The magnificent island is the natural focal point of the room, with seating for five around the bar. There is also an enormous dining area that can comfortably accommodate a 3m table next to bifold doors that open naturally to the gardens and exceptional entertainment terrace. The beautiful kitchen has ample storage and is furnished with Miele appliances, Quooker tap, wine fridge and top spec amenities.
To the right of the entrance hall is the large lounge. To the left, the downstairs washroom. If you walk straight on, there is a peaceful home office with wonderful views of the gardens. The office benefits from an ensuite bathroom, so could alternatively be used as bedroom number six for family members with reduced mobility or an au pair.
There is a large boot room with storage, sink and work surface, and a striking bespoke wooden storage for coats, jackets, boots, sports equipment and the perfect space for a dog bed. The boot room also benefits from a door leading to the gardens and would be the perfect entrance after a long walk in muddy boots to contain any mess away from the rest of the home..
First Floor:
As you climb the elegant stairway, the first thing to notice is the custom chandelier, leading up to the expansive galleried landing, filled with natural light pouring through from the skylight above the 3.5m high ceiling. The first floor includes five bedrooms, all of vast proportions and rich character from the wonderful angles of the vaulted ceilings. There are two possible choices for the principal suite, each with large footprints, stunning en suite bathrooms, and views over the recreation ground towards the River Thames and the private grounds of Windsor Castle. There is also a large family bathroom. Walking around this private family space, the quality of finish throughout is truly sublime,
Outside:
The grounds of the property are expansive. To the front, there is a beautiful tiled path and lawn, adjacent to the private driveway for five vehicles and a garage comfortably able to store a car and miscellaneous equipment..
To the rear, there is a covered outdoor kitchen area facing a large entertainment terrace, which easily accommodates a 4m long dining table and lounging area which face onto a very generously sized garden mainly laid to lawn. A fantastic feature of the gardens is the annexe, currently shown as a gym, which could be used as a home office or games room. With its heating, lighting and bifold doors this space will be truly wonderful, especially in summer with the bifold doors open.
Location:
Datchet is a village and civil parish in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead in Berkshire, located on the north bank of the River Thames.
Being convenient for London - with its own train station and close proximity to the M4 motorway - Datchet has been home to many famous people over the years, among them Sir Isaac Walton, who often fished locally, and William Herschel, the astronomer, who lived next door.
There are a variety of coffee shops, bars, restaurants, dental surgeries, shops, a golf club and a train station in Datchet. There are many attractive walks from the village and Windsor is just five minutes from the property.
