Nestled within picturesque grounds of over two acres, this Grade II Listed farmhouse, dating back to 1704, presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts and investors alike. Located near the charming village of Dorchester-on-Thames, Overy House boasts five bedrooms and four spacious reception areas that are richly adorned with period features such as striking beamed ceilings and grand open fireplaces. While the current owners have maintained the property well, there is scope for modernization and personal touches to enhance its character further.
The generous layout includes three bathrooms and a well-equipped kitchen that overlooks the scenic gardens. Notably, there's an existing double garage which holds potential for conversion into a self-contained annexe, pending necessary planning permissions; previous consent was granted but has since lapsed (see planning application number P20/S3068/HH). Furthermore, the presence of a stable block opens additional possibilities for personal or rental use.
Situated along the serene banks of the River Thame, this property enjoys proximity to Wallingford’s vibrant market town atmosphere while being well-connected for commuters with easy access to Oxford, Reading, and London. The surrounding countryside offers stunning walks and rich history that complements the tranquillity of village life. This residence not only serves as a family home but also stands as a strategic investment in an area experiencing growth.
