2 OAKLANDS Unquestionably a truly amazing and totally transformed family home in a highly sought after road that epitomises English village living.

5 Literally no expense has been spared by the vendors to turn the run down bungalow they purchased into the show piece property it has become. The heart of the home is the amazing kithen/diner that truly has the desired wow factor. The ergonomic central island is the centerpiece with the fitted units and high specification appliances surrounding it, there are multiple fridge/freezers and ovens along with an Aga that seamlessly blends traditional with modern design, to the front is the bay fronted dining area with feature lighting, which provides a beautiful entertaining space. The extended main living room is now a bright relaxing place with the addition of the patio doors, which provides access and views over the rear of the property.

8 Seller Insight This detached bungalow at Oaklands has been renovated to an exceptional standard to provide a wonderful family home. A charming but run down old bungalow when we bought it, we have refurbished the whole property to achieve a more modern, elegant look, say the current owners. The three double bedrooms, two en suites and family bathroom are all finished to an extremely high specification. We have added an extension and dug out the cellar to provide a basement entertainment room complete with air cooled wine storage, games area, technology hub and lounge, the owners continue. We also spent a great deal of time and money on an amazing kitchen/diner, which is now the hub of the home and of family life. A separate lounge has patio doors onto the woodland trimmed garden with its sunny patio. The large front garden has a pretty lawn and is edged by trees say the owners, while three quarters of an acre to the rear features mature oak trees and a seating area perfect for summer barbecues with family and friends. The local area is very well regarded. This is a lovely village say the owners, with two pubs, a fantastic preschool and lower school, and above all a friendly atmosphere. There are two shops, one with post office facilities, in Kensworth, just 3-4 minutes away, while nearby Whipsnade Zoo makes the perfect family day out. Whipsnade Park Golf Course is also within easy reach. Access is convenient to the surrounding towns of Hemel Hempstead, Dunstable and Luton via the M1, with mainline railway stations providing swift travel to London St Pancras.*

11 Even with a kitchen such as this home boasts, the undeniable star of the show is the cellar that has been dug out to provide an entertainment area. The owners currently have it as a multi purpose area, encompassing an air cooled wine storage room, a games area, technology hub and a second lounge. This room is accessible from either inside or outside via the double doors leading up to the patio.

The two further double bedrooms don t disappoint and uphold the same standards, one having its own own en-suite, the other

12 The master bedroom again is the beneficiary of thoughtful design, from the vaulted ceiling to the walk through wardrobe/ dressing room into the sumptuous en suite bathroom with high quality sanitary ware. The two further double bedrooms don t disappoint and uphold the same standards, one having its own own en-suite, the other having sole usage of the main bathroom. An office/study area, cctv and cleverly designed storage areas are just a few more notable benefits that are on offer to the discernable purchaser.
