The Charndon Estate, Marsh Gibbon Road, Poundon, Bicester, Oxfordshire OX27

Charndon House Barn is an exceptional u-shaped barn conversion forming part of the prestigious Charndon Estate, an exclusive gated collection of just twelve individually designed homes set within the Buckinghamshire countryside.

Extending to approximately 3,683 sq ft including the garage, the property offers expansive and beautifully proportioned accommodation designed for modern family living while celebrating the character of the original agricultural buildings.

The heart of the home is the impressive vaulted open-plan kitchen and family space, measuring over 35 ft in length, creating a spectacular area for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features a high-end Italian shaker design with a large central island, complemented by top-of-the-range Siemens appliances, a Bora induction hob with integrated extraction and a Quooker boiling water tap.

Large windows and contemporary aluminium sliding doors flood the living spaces with natural light while framing views of the private courtyard garden. A generous sitting room, along with a separate snug, provides flexible spaces for relaxing or entertaining guests.

The property offers five well-proportioned bedrooms arranged to provide excellent flexibility for family life or guest accommodation. Bathrooms and en-suites are finished to a high specification with designer Aqualla sanitaryware, luxury vanity units, brushed brass and matt black fittings and elegant lighting details.

Modern technology and energy efficiency are central to the design of the home, with air source heat pumps, wet system underfloor heating and smart home controls via the Loxone system managing heating and lighting throughout the property. Triple glazed aluminium windows, high levels of insulation and low-energy lighting further enhance comfort and efficiency.

Externally, the property benefits from generous private gardens, modern porcelain terrace areas ideal for outdoor entertaining, ample driveway parking and a substantial double garage. The development itself is securely gated, providing privacy and a strong sense of community.

Charndon Estate is located in the sought-after village of Marsh Gibbon, a quintessential English village surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village offers a welcoming community, local shop, post office, traditional pub and a well-regarded primary school, while nearby Bicester provides a wider range of shops, restaurants and leisure facilities.

Transport links are excellent, with Bicester North and Bicester Village stations offering fast direct services to London Marylebone in under an hour, while the M40 and A41 provide easy access to Oxford, Milton Keynes and the wider motorway network.

Combining striking architecture, generous living space and exceptional specification, Charndon House Barn offers a rare opportunity to enjoy contemporary countryside living within a beautifully crafted heritage setting.
