The Oaks is a detached home dating back to 1800s, situated in an ideal position to provide ease of access to the motorway network, Humberside airport and Barnetby train station. The house is generously proportioned and elegant, with spacious rooms, high ceilings and tall windows - the natural light throughout is excellent. It's the perfect family home, offering three reception rooms, five bedrooms and expansive gardens which are sheltered from view by woodland, with masses of space inside and out. There is good character to be found internally, including parquet floors, original fireplaces, picture rails and built-in cabinetry, though the house would benefit from further modernisation to help it reach its full and not inconsiderable potential.

Arranged over two floors, the accommodation is well planned and offers about 3500 sq ft of space, arranged around a central reception hall. On the south side of the house, two substantial reception rooms, both with fireplaces and overlooking the gardens, and there's a glazed conservatory enjoying far-reaching views over the countryside below. The separate snug also has a fireplace and would make an excellent family room or study, while the well-appointed kitchen has a further adjoining reception space currently used as a breakfast room. This leads to the rear of the house, where there is a utility room, two stores and a cloakroom with WC. The first floor comprises a principal bedroom with built-in storage and an en suite bath/shower room, four further bedrooms and a family bath and shower room.

The Oaks enjoys an elevated setting on the western edge of Melton Ross, on the National Cycle Route 1 which passes in front of the house. The house is approached via a long, sweeping driveway which winds up to the house through an avenue of mature trees, which open to a large tarmac driveway with space for a large number of cars. Attached to the western side of the house is a double car port.

The grounds extend to about 4.79 acres, comprising lawns, well-established trees and shrubs, flowerbeds and borders which wrap around the house and make it feel very private. The gardens offer fantastic scope for further landscaping.
