Whites Farm House is a well-presented Grade II listed family home, dating from the late 16th and mid 19th Centuries. The property has been refurbished to the highest of standards with great attention to detail and the preservation of many original features, including a priest hole.

There is currently planning permission to extend the house on the ground floor as well as to create further bedrooms on the second floor as required. Situated on the edge of this popular quiet Oxfordshire village, the property enjoys far-reaching views to The Ridgeway and also has views down to the watercress beds on the Letcombe Brook.

The garden and grounds surround the house to all sides and there is also a late 17th Century Grade II listed oak framed barn which has planning consent to convert into a four bedroom residential unit if required (planning application number: P22/V2716/LB). Alternatively, this barn could be used as a party barn or potentially as an indoor swimming pool, subject to the necessary consents.

To the west of the house are three other barns, one with consent to convert into residential, and an area of grassland that could be purchased by separate negotiation.

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

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 23, 2024

    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
