Substantial Manor House in sought after village.
Description
The Old Manor is a stone detached Grade II listed family home surrounded by gardens, offering 3896 sq ft of accommodation with separate cottage, numerous outbuildings and stables with the potential to convert to further garaging, home office or workshops subject to the usual planning consents.
The main house has a kitchen/dining room and three generous reception rooms with high ceilings and fireplaces in each. The kitchen/diner has fitted units with a central island equipped with a Neff electric induction hob. There is an oil fired Aga with adjoining companion Aga, two ring electric hob and a separate electric fan oven. There is space for a dishwasher and large fridge/freezer. Leading through to the west side of the property is the study, fitted with full height wooden shelves, a desk unit ideal for remote working and lovely fireplace.
The dining room has substantial proportions and open fireplace, suitable for entertaining large parties.
On the first floor is the principal bedroom suite overlooking the rear gardens with generous bedroom, dressing room and en suite bathroom with separate shower which can also be accessed via bedroom three. There are three further bedrooms (1 en suite) and family bathroom on this level.
On the second floor are two more bedrooms, one of which has a shower, bath and sink and toilet within.
The cottage "Dovehouse Barn" provides ideal accommodation for an au pair or housekeeper or could be rented out to offer a second income stream. The outbuildings provide ample space for multiple vehicles to be stored under cover, with the addition of stores and stables making this property ideal for equestrian purposes.
There is a sweeping private drive leading to the front of the property whereby there is plenty of space for parking several vehicles. It is situated within its plot surrounded by about eight acres of mature gardens and paddock, flanked by the Oxford Canal with private mooring and power point included.
