A unique character property dating from the early 19th Century set in a wonderful mature plot of approximately 1/3 acre (0.29 acres) at the head of this tucked away lane opposite the Old Vicarage. The Old School as the name suggest was built for the village, at the same time as the Vicarage, as the girls school for Steventon and still features the original belfry that housed the school bell.
The property became a residence some time after the boys and girls schools were amalgamated and has been extended and altered to create a stylish home combining elegant high ceilings and sash windows and featuring a wonderful open plan kitchen and family room with hand painted units, lantern style roof light and french doors opening to the gardens.
The present owners have further enhanced the style and elegance of the property refitting the bathroom to an impressive specification, replacing the entrance door with handmade custom-built timber door mirroring the original style and fastidiously redecorating and recarpeting property to further emphasise and enhance the proportions of The Old School
Overall the accommodation offers great flexibility with 2 generous double bedrooms on the first floor (one of which could be split to offer two single bedrooms) and an additional bedroom/ study on the ground floor. Besides a lovely mature garden and a large driveway the house offers a particularly large 4 car garage, with electric door.
Vicarage Road is made up of a variety of individual properties and is situated off the historic Causeway that runs through the centre of Steventon. The village has some excellent facilities including a primary school, village Co-Op store, 3 local Inns, a Church and bakery. Local connections to the Historic Market town of Abingdon and the garden town of Didcot with its fast rail connection to London Paddington from Didcot Parkway are both approximately 3-4 miles away.
Access to the A34 Milton Park and Harwell Science park are all within 4 miles.
