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.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on September 14, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. 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
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on September 14, 2023

    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
