3 bed detached house for sale

Foxglove Piece, Watlington OX49

Open house by Appointment: 1st February

Tucked into a smart Bloor Homes development (built in 2023), this detached three-bedroom home has that “new-house” polish without feeling like a blank box. It’s modern, bright, and properly ready to move straight into. With a south-east facing garden, a brilliantly versatile garage-converted office and the sort of location that lets you choose between coffee on the High Street or a stomp into the Chilterns.

The sitting room is calm and comfortable, ideal for slow Sundays, busy weekdays and everything in between while the kitchen/dining space is the real heart of the house: Sociable, practical and made for meals that start as “something quick” and turn into an hour at the table.

Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms. The principal bedroom comes with built-in wardrobes and a large en-suite shower room, so you can keep the clutter hidden and the mornings civilised. Bedrooms two and three are currently set up as children’s rooms, but both are well-proportioned and can happily take a double bed; perfect if you need a guest room, a hobby space, or a “we’re definitely not calling it a home office” room. There’s also a clean, well-finished family bathroom and the loft is quarter-boarded, giving you extra storage you’ll always be grateful for come Christmas-decoration season.

Outside, the south-east facing garden catches the morning and afternoon sun great for breakfast outside, summer barbecues, or simply spending an afternoon doing some gardening. The standout feature is the converted garage, now a smart outdoor office that could just as easily be a gym, studio, treatment room, or teen hangout (depending on what stage of life you’re in). There’s still practical storage retained at the front, complete with an electric door, so you don’t lose that all-important “where do we put the bikes/ boxes/ paddleboards?” space. Parking is sorted too, with two spaces at the rear and an EV charger.

Location-wise, it’s hard to beat. Watlington is brilliant for anyone who wants countryside on tap without feeling cut off. You're on the doorstep of the Chilterns aonb and just a short hop from the M40, making commuting straightforward. The Oxford Tube stop at Lewknor is close by for easy runs into Oxford or London and you’re only a short drive from Thame (for the larger supermarkets). Overall, this house gives you the kind of spot that suits real life: Well connected, very pretty and just the right side of peaceful
