Property description

Oldfield Wood is situated about 1 mile from Woking town centre which provides two shopping centres, a broad mix of restaurants, cinema complex and highly rated theatre. The area also has a good selection of schools including the International School Of London (ISL), leisure centres, swimming pools and gyms.
The property is located within less than a mile radius of Woking mainline station which offers a fast rail service into London Waterloo with some services as quick as 23 minutes. The motorway network can be accessed just 5 miles away (J10, M25/A3), allowing straight forward road travel to central London (about 28 miles) and airports (Heathrow - 18.2 miles, Gatwick - 26.6 miles).
The Basingstoke Canal meanders through the heart of Woking, an ever-present reminder of the proximity of open space, calm and countryside. A short drive away are Wisley RHS Gardens, Clandon Park and Loseley Park. Further local amenities include The Lightbox, an arts centre in Woking as well as golf at Wisley, Woking, St George's Hill, Burhill and Walton Heath.

Set in magnificent grounds, Oldfield Wood offers the opportunity to experience a piece of English history dating back to 1883. The property was the original St. Peter’s Convent boasting beautiful Gothic design with ornate lead glass windows, intricately carved doors and high ceilings.

Oldfield Wood is set behind electric gates within 5 acres of beautifully manicured gardens and woodland, designed by a Gold Medal Winner at Chelsea Flower Show. Within the grounds is an impressive clock tower, chapel with the original mortuary attached, now used as a communal storage area for bikes and such like. The grounds offer ample space to find a private area to relax in or to socialise with the tight knit community. There is also a newly refurbished tennis court for the sole use of the residents and their guests.

The property itself was converted in 1996 and finished to a high standard to make the most of the character whilst still providing modern living accommodation. The large entrance hall leads into a formal reception room with impressive high ceiling, replica Portland stone fireplace and an imposing tall lead glass window. The kitchen/breakfast room provides plenty of storage space and enough room for a large kitchen table. Downstairs there is also a wine store, guest cloakroom, utility room and coat cupboard.

The first floor has a second reception room used as a formal dining room that comfortably seats 10 and a guest bedroom and family bathroom. Up a short flight of stairs you will find a large, bright master bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom. On the next floor you will find two further double bedrooms both with fitted wardrobes, a second family bathroom and study. There is also access to a large boarded loft from the landing. At the very top of the house is the fifth bedroom that has been wired for use as a cinema room if preferred with plenty of storage.
Outside is allocated parking and garage in addition to the communal areas mentioned above. Viewings are highly recommended.
