3 bed detached house for sale

Church Street, Wroxton OX15

Tucked away in a peaceful semi-rural location, this converted barn blends rustic charm with the conveniences of modern living in need of some updating. Constructed of stone beneath a slate roof with copping stones and wooden double glazed windows. The property has been enlarged to the rear elevation, cut into the hillside. The barn retains many original features including exposed beams, purlins and rafters and stone walls. The property offers a unique opportunity to personalise a characterful home. The interior offers open-plan living with the potential for the reconfiguration through the incorporation of the attached garage to increase the living space. The heart of the barn is a generous living/dining area featuring a stone fireplace. The adjacent utility room with oil fired boiler, leads to the single garage with up and over door, a space that has potential to become further living accommodation. The kitchen combines fitted cabinetry with space for domestic appliances. The character of the barn continues on the first floor with several exposed purlins and rafters on display. There are three bedrooms, including a principal suite with en-suite bathroom, plus a family bathroom that currently has a large standalone shower and a second sitting room (which could be utilised as a fourth bedroom) with double doors out to the garden

Outside

Currently, a wrought iron pedestrian gate provides access to a shared and walled courtyard, leading to the main front entrance. The court yard is expected to be divided up as per the title plan with only the gate remaining as shared. The woodland hill area was originally attached to the neighbouring property, previously formal in layout using Yew trees. The area has a wonderful wild and secluded aspect, enclosed by post and rail fencing with great potential such as a unique play area among the mature and veteran trees or with sympathetic management enhanced to provide a beautiful and species rich environment. In all, 0.66 of an acre. There is also a useful outbuilding at the top of the plot.

Situation

Wroxton is a pretty ironstone village and has many period cottages including those which are centred around the village Green and its adjoining duck pond. From the heart of the village a long driveway leads up to Wroxton Abbey, a Jacobean manor house, the grounds of which are open to the public and offers a pleasant walk around the lakes. Within the village there is a fine church, the Wroxton House hotel and a popular primary school. More shopping and recreational facilities can be found in the nearby market town of Banbury. From Banbury there is a mainline railway station to London Marylebone (approx 1 hour) and J11 (M40).
