Description
Nestled in the heart of the Oxfordshire countryside, Home Farm is set within its own delightful gardens and grounds extending to about eight acres alongside a two bedroom annexe and a large agricultural barn with planning permission (Application No. P21/S2239/HH). Believed to date back in parts to the 16th century, with later additions, the current owners have superbly renovated the property, expertly combining rustic, original features with contemporary design. Home Farm occupies an idyllic, secluded position surrounded by countryside on the outskirts of the village of Towersey and with easy access to Oxford and London by road and rail.
Home Farm offers beautifully designed and characterful accommodation throughout. Features include decorative fireplaces, exposed beams and brickwork, stone and wood flooring.
On the ground floor the living spaces flow well, with the front door opening into the reception hall, heavily beamed and full of character. Overlooking the garden, the kitchen/breakfast/family room provides the perfect family hub, with an open plan, sociable layout.
The bespoke fitted kitchen is wonderfully appointed with ample built-in storage, walk-in pantry, granite worktops and an excellent range of integrated appliances including an electric Aga. An impressive central island gives further storage, breakfast bar seating and cleverly incorporates a champagne bar.
In the dining area, a large ceiling lantern maximises the natural light and bi-fold doors open the entire room to garden. Porcelain tiled flooring extends seamlessly from the inside to the outside terrace, creating perfect indoor/outdoor entertaining space.
Overlooking the grounds, a formal sitting room enjoys a dual aspect and brick fireplace while further reception space includes a delightful snug just off the kitchen, with exposed beams and fireplace.
Completing the accommodation on this floor is a well-appointed utility room with ample storage and a shower room, ideal for coats and muddy dogs.
In addition, attached to the main house is an enclosed outdoor bar with kitchen/bar area opening on to the terrace.
Throughout the house there is underfloor heating, Hardwired AV, Sonos music system and a smart lighting system.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged on the first floor, with four well-appointed en suite bedrooms.
The principal bedroom benefits from a fully fitted dressing room, luxurious en suite bath/shower room and a dual aspect A-frame bedroom with views over the gardens.
A particular highlight on this floor is an impressive, spacious media room offering an extremely versatile, open plan space which could be arranged as further bedroom accommodation or potentially a self- contained annexe. A covered balcony offers an idyllic seating nook, perfectly framing the view.
Gardens and Grounds
The beautifully private grounds of Home Farm surround the property with formal gardens and paddock land beyond. A slate terrace wraps around the rear of the house giving perfect space for entertaining family and friends with a further decked dining area created over the pond. The landscaped gardens are a delight, providing an enchanting backdrop to the house with manicured lawns interspersed with mature trees and beautifully planted flower beds packed with colour and scent. Natural pathways weave throughout the garden and to the front is an area of woodland and a lovely wildlife pond, brimming with activity. Further highlights include an orchard, kitchen garden, outdoor fireplace, treehouse and a tranquil firepit area.
A generous driveway to the front provides ample parking and leads to a three bay carport. About 8.06 acres in all.
The Stables Annexe
A lovely detached brick and flint house, originally the stable block has been converted to provide self-contained accommodation. The property is full of character and comprises a sitting room, kitchen, utility room, two bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms. An external wooden staircase leads to the first floor, ideal for a home office, studio or children’s playroom.
Dutch Barn
A substantial agricultural Dutch barn has planning permission granted (Application No. P21/S2239/HH) to create a separate dwelling including a gym, garage showroom and workshop with a first floor office, treatment room, shower/WC, Jacuzzi and large terrace.
