Oak Road, Downham

COMING SOON... We are booked to take photos next thursday and so until then have just the following information.

Situated along a particularly quiet private country lane in the heart of Downham Village, this 3 Bedroom Detached House enjoys a lovely semi-rural setting, with open countryside opposite and a bridlepath virtually on the doorstep.

Built in the 1980s, the property offers generously proportioned accommodation briefly comprising a 15ft Hall, huge Lounge, large separate Dining Room open plan to a Conservatory, 10ft x 10ft Kitchen with a separate adjoining Utility Room, ground floor WC Room, and upstairs, the three good-sized bedrooms and both an Ensuite Shower Room off the Master Bedroom as well as a main Bathroom.

Whilst now offering an opportunity for some updating and modernisation, the house provides excellent scope for someone to create a wonderful home in this appealing village setting.


Oak Road itself is a peaceful lane which gradually gives way to a bridlepath at its far end, providing wonderful opportunities for countryside walks right from your doorstep.

Downham is a charming village of approximately 200 households, adjoining the larger village of Ramsden Heath, where you'll find a good selection of local amenities, including three popular pubs, a coffee shop, hairdressers, beauticians, village hall and tennis club.
