Nestled on the edge of a quaint village, this substantial family residence, Sorbrook Manor, boasts impressive proportions and scenic views of the garden and surrounding countryside. Built in the early 1900s using Hornton stone under a slate roof, the property features an array of architectural details such as sash, leaded, and stone mullion windows that imbue it with character. Spanning approximately 8,500 sq ft across two floors, this home is ideal for both entertaining and everyday living.
While well-maintained over the years, Sorbrook Manor is now primed for a thoughtful renovation and update. New owners have a significant opportunity to modernize the space according to personal preferences. Upon entry, you are welcomed by a large entrance hall with wooden flooring and an elegant stone fireplace. To the left lies a drawing room with original parquet flooring, abundant natural light from a south-west facing bay window, and a marble fireplace offering captivating garden views.
Adjacent to the drawing room is a spacious sitting room that connects to a study via large sash windows that provide lovely garden vistas. The generously sized kitchen includes an informal dining area and is centered around an oil-fired AGA; though functional, it presents an opportunity for reconfiguration and modernization to suit contemporary lifestyles.
The dining room offers seamless connectivity to the kitchen as well as beautiful views through its bay window along with an open fireplace.
On the first floor, you'll find the principal bedroom suite accompanied by a dressing room and bathroom alongside five additional bedrooms—two of which have ensuites. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms while a loft space offers potential for conversion into additional living areas or bedrooms.
Additionally, the Coach House adds charm with its preserved character—featuring exposed brickwork on the ground floor and providing livable space on the first floor with remarkable landscape views.
The grounds include meticulously maintained gardens that enhance the tranquility of this estate. Expansive lawns extend towards Sor Brook while mature trees and hedging ensure privacy and natural beauty throughout seasonal changes. Notably, there is also a swimming pool along with various outbuildings like greenhouses needing refurbishment to restore their former glory alongside an old barn in need of planning permission for possible transformation.
Positioned in Adderbury—an attractive village north of Oxford—this property enjoys excellent local amenities such as shops, public houses, schools (both state and private), leisure facilities including golf clubs nearby as well as easy access via M40 junctions for travel across regions.
