The principal bedroom suite has an en suite bathroom and a range of fitted wardrobes. There are four further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and all with fitted wardrobes. A family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.

Oaktrees is approached over a gravel drive with generous parking to the front and side of the house and with space for a potential extension. To the rear and South of the house is a paved terrace opening on to lawns with mature hedging on the boundaries providing privacy. The gardens are a lovely feature of the property. A horse chestnut and a cherry tree separate the lawn from the area which is being left to rewild for the local flora and fauna. This has the potential to be a paddock or possibly a tennis court.

Oaktrees occupies a superb setting within a mile of the centre of Waltham St Laurence village but in a quiet lane. The property is situated on the edge of the picturesque village of Waltham St. Lawrence. The village has many beautiful houses, a parish church, a village hall, a 15th-century public house, and an outstanding-rated primary school.
