6 bedroom detached house

An impressive six bedroom detached residence set in an outstanding rural position in the heart of the Oxfordshire countryside. Approaching five acres in total, the land surrounds the property and provides beautiful views across the surrounding countryside. This is one of the most sought after areas to live, an area of outstanding natural beauty, with quiet country lanes and some pretty villages and fabulous local Inns and restaurants on its doorstep. Ideally situated some four miles from the market town of Bicester and within five minutes of the M40 this family home has been occupied by the present owner for almost 38 years proving testament to the charming nature of the location. Offering great scope for further improvements The Branch House currently offers flexible accommodation totalling approximately 2300 square feet and is approached via a gated driveway leading to the front porch. On the ground floor there are four reception rooms, two of which have open fires and some rooms also benefit from Oak parquet flooring. An inner corridor leads to the cloakroom, study and to the kitchen which has a range of fitted units at base and eye level, a door to the garden and a pantry cupboard. The garden room and the conservatory are both at the rear of the property allowing for pleasant views of the formal garden throughout the year. Upstairs there are six bedrooms, four of which have vanity units, three have fitted wardrobes and there are two family bathrooms with three piece suites. Outside, the beautiful grounds extend to approximately 4.75 acres to include the main gardens and four individual paddocks with good access to bridalways and footpaths. The current owners until recently operated a successful business from the premises. There are at present twelve kennels, a separate office, feed room, ample parking with a separate access from the main house and an exercise paddock allowing a new owner to continue along similar lines if they wished to do so. There are three separate outbuildings 2 of which have previously been used as stables and one as a tack room. There is a single garage serving the main house and ample parking on the large gravelled driveway. The Branch House offers a rare opportunity to acquire a property which enjoys quite exceptional panoramic views across some of the finest unspoilt countryside in the county.
