Steeped in history, this stunning four bedroom Grade II listed property is a family home retaining a wealth of character and is situated in an elevated position with stunning views over Damflask Reservoir and High Bradfield. The current owners bought the shell of the building and carried out a sympathetic restoration to create generous living space over three floors.
Oaks Farm dates back to the 1760s and was granted Grade II listed status in 1990. It has a wealth of interesting history and period features. The heavy ceiling beams in the kitchen and dining room were salvaged from the demolished cottage that stood in today's meadow. There is also an original door latch in the dining room kitchen believed to be around 400 years old. Other attractive features of the home include stone windows, original stone floors, exposed brick and an original terracotta butler's sink. Oaks Farm has passed through many families over the years and was recently a family home for 25 years.
