This Grade II listed property, with origins tracing back to the early 17th century and further enhancements over the years, presents a significant opportunity for renovation and investment in the sought-after village of Sutton Courtenay. Having been a cherished family residence for nearly five decades, it is now ready for a new owner to breathe fresh life into its spacious interiors.
The home features an impressive entrance hall showcasing a charming circular Georgian staircase that leads up to two additional levels. The generous layout spans three floors and includes four well-sized reception rooms characterized by high ceilings, period fireplaces, and views of the surrounding gardens. Notably, the double aspect drawing room boasts intricate panelled walls and decorative ceiling beams, adding to the property's historic charm.
At the rear, you'll find a spacious kitchen/breakfast room equipped with an Aga, along with practical spaces such as a laundry room and walk-in larder. The property also benefits from multiple access points, including a rear hall leading to various functional areas like a boot room, butler’s pantry, cloakroom, and wine cellar. The first floor accommodates five ample bedrooms and three bathrooms, including the airy principal suite. A continuation of the circular staircase leads to two additional bedrooms on the second floor.
Externally, the property is secured by a high gated wall with a gravel driveway leading to parking areas near both the main house and an adjacent barn. This large timber structure consists of two garages alongside original stables and a tack room—ideal for conversion into additional living space or recreational areas. Furthermore, there is a detached two-bedroom cottage on-site that could serve as guest accommodation or rental income.
Surrounding gardens enrich the property with established lawns, mature shrubs, and trees; notably, there’s also a swimming pool located within this private green space. A gate opens from the main garden into an orchard area while at the rear lies both a summer house and former grass tennis court— all providing ample potential for outdoor leisure activities or landscaping projects. Adjacent paddocks extend towards Ginge Brook.
Sutton Courtenay is one of South East Oxfordshire's most historically rich parishes along the south bank of the River Thames. It boasts local amenities including shops, pubs, and historical sites such as parish churches dating back to Norman times and impressive architecture throughout. With excellent transport links via Didcot Parkway providing swift access to London as well as proximity to larger towns like Abingdon and Oxford—known for their extensive shopping options—the location is exceedingly convenient.
