This spacious six-bedroom former farmhouse, steeped in history, is located in a well-connected village in South Oxfordshire. The property features distinctive Georgian architecture with original elements such as open fireplaces, sash windows, and exposed timber beams, all crafted from red brick beneath a traditional tiled roof.
The layout offers a welcoming entrance hall that flows into three versatile reception rooms. The drawing room benefits from dual aspects, allowing for ample natural light, while the adjacent sitting room leads into a dining area connected to a farmhouse-style kitchen. This kitchen is equipped with an electric Aga and includes a central island designed for casual dining. A utility room provides additional practical space. Upstairs, you'll find five generously-sized bedrooms, three of which have en suite shower rooms, along with a family bathroom. Furthermore, the eaves host a sixth bedroom that presents an opportunity for further development—subject to planning permission.
Set back from the road and positioned centrally on the plot, this property includes a brick-built office or gym in the garden. With existing water and electricity connections, this outbuilding holds potential for conversion into a self-contained living space or teenage retreat after obtaining necessary approvals. Additionally, there are three large garages and ample parking available at the front of the house.
