Towards the rear of this family home is an architecturally designed, glazed partition linking both old and new. The new contemporary wing has been designed so that, if one wishes, it can be a self-contained annexe. There is a utility with doors on either side accessing the garden, a stunning light and airy family room with vaulted ceilings, large windows overlooking the terrace and pond, and exposed wooden tie beams, and a downstairs double bedroom with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the secluded garden and fields beyond and an en suite.
The first floor is divided into two sections, offering flexibility. Three double bedrooms are accessed from the original cottage, with the principal bedrooms having beamed walls, wooden floors, and undisturbed views over the gardens. The family bathroom is also in the original house.
Externally, Moreton Thatch is on a no-through road and is set back within its plot. There is a driveway and garage, which has elapsed planning permission to be rebuilt. The gardens and grounds surround the property and incorporate a pathway that leads to the rear of the property and to a delightful sun terrace that commands stunning views over the gardens. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, framed by flower and herbaceous borders, an orchard and is enclosed with mature hedging and many trees, including apple, pear, and various damsons/plums. The well-tended gardens and grounds, measuring approximately 0.6 acres, are quintessential and complement the beautiful detached house and rural setting.
To the south of the historic market town of Thame, Moreton is a hamlet ideally located for commuting to Oxford and London. Thame offers a weekly market and has an extensive range of amenities, including Lord Williams secondary school, primary schools, restaurants, sports clubs, Waitrose, and Sainsbury supermarket.
The M40 gives convenient access to London, Bicester, Birmingham, and the Midlands. Haddenham & Thame Parkway mainline station provides a regular service to London Marylebone station from 39 minutes.
Moreton is very well located for a wide choice of highly regarded schools nearby, both state and independent. For leisure, the Oxfordshire Golf Club and Spa is 2 miles drive away and a little over 1 mile by foot. There is a wide choice of excellent restaurants and pubs in the area, including The Plough in Great Haseley and Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons at Great Milton. Footpaths and bridleways connect to Thame and, with the Phoenix Trail for cycling and walks in the Chilterns area of outstanding natural beauty, and Waddesdon Manor a short drive away.
