The farmhouse was built in approximately 1896 and extends to 2,457 sq ft. It comprises three reception rooms, the formal sitting room being double aspect, with double doors to the outdoor kitchen and views over the beautifully tended garden and paddock beyond.

A kitchen/breakfast room with shaker-style cupboards and traditional Aga, and a fully fitted utility with a door to the rear garden. On the first floor are four good-sized double bedrooms.

The principal bedroom is en suite and enjoys the natural light and views beyond; it currently uses the fourth bedroom as a dressing room. There is a further family bathroom.

Gardens
Externally, the 4 acres of ground have much to offer. The carefully tended garden provides a picturesque setting. The garden's centrepiece is a well-maintained moat, with a charming bridge spanning the moat, creating an inviting path to explore the rest of the garden.

The outdoor patio area is a standout feature for those who love to entertain; the built-in garden kitchen and barbecue area offers a social space for hosting gatherings and enjoying outdoor dining.
The stable block adjoins the well-maintained paddock with water trough and enjoys access to the local bridleway network. There are four stables and a double carport, with electric and water supply.

The property benefits from a full right of access over the main driveway.


The village of Murcott is conveniently situated c.5 miles South of Bicester and c.11 miles North of Oxford, with train services from Islip (c.4.5 miles), Bicester (c. 6 miles) and Oxford to London. Junction 8 and Junction 9 of the M40 give easy access to London, while the A34 takes you to Oxford and Newbury.

Murcott is one of the 'seventowns of Otmoor', an ancient area of great natural beauty. The village of Murcott contains several interesting period and character properties, including the Nut Tree Inn, which is set behind the village pond and is believed to date back to the 17th Century. New Park Farmhouse is located in the parish of Boarstall within the catchment area of the Aylesbury Grammar schools and is also within easy reach of Oxford's well-known private schools. There are great local walks, with a woodland reserve on the doorstep at White Cross Green and the RSPB reserve on Otmoor itself..

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
