Summary
• Approx. 4,045 sq ft (375.8 sq m) of accommodation
• Prime Knebworth village location
• Stunning open-plan kitchen / dining / family space
• Four or Five double bedrooms, three bath/shower rooms

The Property
This is a home of impressive scale, evident from the moment you step into the generous central entrance hall. The hall leads to a superb 11m kitchen / dining / family space, which is very much the heart of the home. It’s an excellent entertaining room - wide, bright, and flowing directly onto the garden via large glazed doors. The kitchen itself is high-spec, centred around a large island, with excellent storage and workspace, and complemented by a generous separate pantry and laundry rooms.

What works particularly well here is the flexibility. Alongside the main living space, you have:

• a dedicated cinema room
• a further family / sitting room / bedroom 5
• a home office positioned behind a secret door and away from the main hub
• practical additions including a laundry room and a pantry, storage and cloakroom

The house has clearly been designed with much thought and love, to create a wonderful and welcoming family home.

Upstairs is equally well thought through, arranged around a bright, vaulted central landing. The principal bedroom suite is a standout - a large double bedroom with its own dressing room and en-suite with bath and dual walk-in shower, all combining to provide a luxury “main suite” feel.

There are three further double bedrooms on the first floor, one with its own en-suite, and a well-appointed "Jack and Jill" family bathroom serving the other two bedrooms. The proportions throughout are generous and consistent - no compromised bedrooms here.

Outside
To the front, the property is set back behind a wide gravel driveway, providing ample parking space, and leading to an integral double garage.

The rear garden offers a good degree of privacy and backs onto fields, giving a feeling of space. There’s a large terrace adjacent to the main living space, again making it ideal for entertaining.

Location
Oakfields Avenue is widely regarded as one of Knebworth’s more desirable residential addresses - quiet, established, and within easy reach of the village centre.

Knebworth itself remains one of the area’s most sought-after villages, offering:
• a vibrant high street with independent shops and amenities
• well-regarded local schooling
• mainline rail services into London King’s Cross
• excellent access to surrounding countryside

In summary
A substantial, high-quality family home in a prime Knebworth setting, offering space, flexibility and presence in equal measure. Houses of this scale and finish, in this fantastic location, are rarely available.
