Description

Shepherds Hall presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, transforming this former guest house and public house into a variety of prospective uses, pending planning permissions. With its substantial 9-bedroom configuration, the property holds considerable potential for those looking to develop it further. Situated on a generous plot in the village of Freeland, the property benefits from excellent transport links to the A40 and M40 corridors. The location offers a balanced lifestyle, being centrally located between Witney and Woodstock—both just 5 miles away—and only 8 miles northwest of Summertown. This charming village features essential amenities including a highly regarded primary school, local church, and the Oxfordshire Yeoman pub. The community-focused village hall hosts a range of clubs and activities, enhancing the area’s appeal for families and residents alike. Public transport options are readily available with bus services connecting to Oxford, Woodstock, and Witney. Additionally, nearby Long Hanborough railway station (1½ miles away) provides direct routes to London, making this location attractive for commuters. Prospective buyers should note that viewings must be pre-arranged with an agent due to security measures in place at the property, which is monitored by 24-hour CCTV. The site is being offered freehold with vacant possession upon completion, allowing for immediate development opportunities.
