THE PROPERTY
The Rickyard is an exceptional family home, ideally located for all the high end amenities the Cotswolds boast, but tucked away enough to be private and tranquil. The main property offers over 3000 sq ft of lavishly equipped living space which is perfect for entertaining. This is supplemented with a further two bedroom cottage, and an en-suite guest room over the garage providing further accommodation. Either of these could also allow staff their own accommodation if required. The property is available immediately for either short or long lets.

THE GROUNDS
Totalling over 1.5 acres, the grounds are adjacent to many acres of farmland. They offer a mixture of meadows and more formal gardens and provide many spaces to soak up the peace and quiet and enjoy being close to nature. You'll find a football net, a games room with table tennis, darts and pinball, as well as an outdoor heated swimming pool with comfortable sun loungers. This spectacular setting of entertainment is overlooked by an outdoor dining space, with cosy sofas and a large table underneath a wooden pergola which is absolutely perfect for BBQs. There is also a sheltered picnic area with superb views situated at the bottom of the paddock. The property also has its own visiting gardener.

SITUATION
Asthall Leigh is a hamlet of Asthall in the parish of Oxfordshire and lies just south of the River Windrush. Its expansion from just 141 residents in the mid nineteenth century began with the building of St Johns Chapel, the property now being sold, in 1861 through to the memorial hall in the early 20th century and then an infill of residential buildings from the 1950's through to the 1970's. The village lies in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is a rural hamlet surrounded by delightful rolling countryside. Local shopping facilities are found in the nearby market towns of Burford and Witney, whilst Oxford provides the main shopping and cultural centres for the area. There is a main line railway station at Charlbury providing regular services to Oxford and London (Paddington).

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on September 23, 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 23, 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
