Full of character and charm, this eye-catching Edwardian home offers substantial and flexible accommodation arranged over three floors in a desirable village setting.
Lorna Villa has been designed in a typical architectural Edwardian style with an underlying theme of space and light, resulting in generously proportioned airy rooms with high ceilings and multiple large windows, creating a wonderful family home.
The property is externally instantly appealing with its distinct ornate bay and sash windows and steeply pitched gable end. It is entered via the elegantly carved stone porch and into a light hallway with a large window and decorative plaster work and cornicing.
The 29’2 x 11’8 dual aspect living room is an impressive space with a bay window featuring original floral coloured glass and attractive working fireplace to the front, and doors leading to the garden to the rear.
The dining room also featuring a fireplace and floor to ceiling cupboards provides a pleasant space for a dining table next to a large sash window. This leads to the kitchen and practical utility space beyond and has huge potential to be opened up to create an open-plan space. There is space to extend the rear beyond the living room to provide even more space.
The downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor.
A winding staircase takes you past a delightful multi-paned sash window flooding the space with light and onto the first-floor landing.
Past a decorative plasterwork arch is the master bedroom. This is a lovely light room benefitting from multiple windows to the front and side. Conveniently positioned next door is a shower room.
There is a further double bedroom next door with an original fireplace. Moving toward the rear of the property there is a single bedroom and recently been modernised family bathroom with a large shower and airing cupboard.
The second floor provides two further double bedrooms, each with an original feature fireplace.
Outside is a delightful sunny west-facing garden enclosed by a stone wall and overlooking open fields with a raised planting bed and pleasant patio area.
There is off-street parking to the front.
Fritwell has great local amenities including the village shop and award-winning butchers G.B Wrightons, a popular C of E primary school, Village Hall, playing field and two churches. Access to the M40 Junction 10 is just a few minutes’ drive away.
Bicester conveniently has two train stations. Bicester North offers a great commuter service to London Marylebone in around 45 minutes, and you can reach Birmingham in 1 hour.
Bicester Village train station offers service to Oxford Parkway and to Nearby London Marylebone.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
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
