Description

Middleway Farm House presents a unique opportunity to invest in a historic property located halfway between Oxford and Abingdon. This original farmhouse dating back to the 1700s features a Victorian extension and an adjoining former stable block that has served as a self-contained annexe for decades. The residence has been cherished by its owners since the 1970s and now awaits your vision for modernisation, enabling you to transform it into a distinguished family home. Character abounds with flint and brick facades, exposed beams, and charming fireplaces throughout the expansive ground floor. Key spaces include an inviting sitting room, a bright double-aspect dining room with bay windows that open to a sun-drenched terrace, as well as a kitchen with distinctive features from the Victorian era. Additional highlights include a staircase leading to an old cellar, perfect for storage or possible conversion, subject to necessary permissions. Upstairs, you'll find four generous bedrooms filled with natural light, complemented by a family bathroom showcasing lovely views towards Wootton village. The property’s potential extends outdoors with a mature garden enveloping the home and an array of sunny terraces, offering privacy amidst established hedges and trees. There is also scope for further enhancement of the grounds or even constructing a standalone garage, contingent on obtaining approvals. This desirable location in Boars Hill combines tranquil countryside living with convenient access to Oxford's amenities while being close to local shops, schools, and public transport options.
