    About this property

    • Little Oaks is an attractive detached property set on a mature 0.25 acre plot, positioned well back from the road behind a generous driveway and parking area, and enjoying open views over fields to the front.

      The house is well presented throughout and features a dual aspect sitting room with a brick fireplace and log burner, a dining room with bay window, and a kitchen with integrated appliances. A utility room provides side access and there is a guest cloakroom.

      Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms and a family shower room.

      A side gate leads to the rear garden, mainly laid to lawn. The property offers excellent storage, including a brick built shed, a side store housing the gas boiler, an additional integrated store and also a detached conservatory.

      Planning permission has been granted for a well-designed two storey rear extension, new front porch, and internal alterations (Ref: 24/02565/FHA). The approved scheme extends the accommodation to 181.7 sq.m, adding two extra bedroom and two extra bathrooms on the first floor and a radical re-imagining of the ground floor adding a large open plan kitchen living area with extensive glazing. The new planning offers buyers an excellent opportunity to enhance this characterful home in a peaceful semi rural location on the edge of Berkhamsted.
