Home Farmhouse dates back to the 17th Century and is a beautifully renovated former farmhouse which benefits from not being listed. Built from Hornton stone under a clay tile roof. The front door opens into a spacious reception hall with reclaimed slate tiled flooring and feature fireplace. To the right is an impressive dual-aspect drawing room with feature fireplace with wood burner and beautiful views of the garden and patio to the northwest, accessed through French doors which flood the room with natural light. To the left of the entrance hall is an inviting sitting room with another beautiful, brick fireplace with wood burner, an exposed stone wall and original ceiling beams. Stairs rising to the first-floor landing are accessed from the sitting room. A step up from the sitting room leads into the magnificent kitchen, breakfast and family room which is an impressive later Border Oak addition. The kitchen/breakfast/family room has limestone tiled flooring, exposed ceiling beams, and views to the rear garden through two sets of French doors which open on to a formal
garden area. The kitchen itself is a Hunt Bespoke kitchen and has an oil-fired AGA, integrated dishwasher and fridge/freezer, two-ring hob, and a large island with wooden worktop along with an additional integrated oven. A good sized pantry is accessed from the kitchen as well as a downstairs cloakroom and spacious utility room with underfloor heating, built-in storage and space for appliances. The stairs in the kitchen rise to a galleried landing, with a large timber window overlooking the beautiful rear garden and two Velux roof lights for added light. The oak flooring from the landing flows into the impressive principal bedroom with two sets of French doors leading to individual Juliet balconies and views of the rear garden and countryside beyond. There is also a free-standing bath and two large wardrobes built-in. The principal bedroom is served by the beautiful shower room accessed from the landing with marble-tiled shower, his & hers sinks and bidet. Bedroom two is also generous in size and dual aspect. The first floor extends to a second shower room with tiled walk-in shower, a well-presented family bathroom and three further double bedrooms. The roof space has the potential to be incorporated into the accommodation subject to any necessary consents. To the rear of the property is a detached Border Oak framed building. The ground floor is currently used as a home gym, with three pairs of double-glazed doors opening on to the garden, and the first floor, accessed via external wooden stairs, is used as a home office. The building has the potential to be converted into an annexe subject to the necessary planning consent.

The property is approached through a five-bar wooden gate which leads onto an edged gravel driveway providing ample off-road parking. The driveway includes an oak-framed, timber-clad garage and carport with electric charging point. The landscaped gardens are a particular feature of the property and are mainly laid to lawn, extending to approximately 0.49 of an acre. The front lawn is separated from the drive by a low, retaining stone wall and is bordered by a laurel hedge that provides screening from the surrounding village. The beautiful rear garden is arranged over two levels. The upper lawn comprises a gravel patio, accessed via the French doors in the kitchen. A gabion-retained wall constructed from stone and illuminated steps lead to a lower gravel terrace which is bordered by Portuguese laurel hedging for effective screening. The lower lawn is surrounded by a variety of trees and evergreens, along with a vegetable garden and second wooden shed. There is also a separate barbeque area with a concrete floor to the left of the oak-framed building.

The village of Great Bourton is located about 3 miles north of Banbury, the village has a church, public house, community hall and village hall with a variety of regular events and clubs. Further amenities, including a primary school, doctor's surgery, village shop, Cafés and two public houses found in neighboring Cropredy. Within easy reach, are The Cotswolds, Soho Farmhouse, Bicester Village and Oxford. There are excellent shopping facilities for day-to-day requirements in the surrounding area, including several farm shops, whilst more extensive shopping and leisure facilities can be found in Oxford, Warwick, Leamington Spa and Stratford-upon-Avon. Commuting links are very convenient with Banbury station just 3 miles away and the M40 (J11) accessed at Banbury. There is also a great choice of schooling options in the area including Bloxham, Sibford School and Warwick public schools, Carrdus at Overthorpe, Winchester House at Brackley and several others. The National Trust Properties of Upton House and Farnborough Hall are close by, as is Compton Wynyates country house considered the finest example of domestic Tudor architecture in England. Cherwell Edge golf club is just 4 miles away at Chacombe and there are further courses at Tadmarton Heath and Brailes, both nearby. Racing is at Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick and Cheltenham.
