Well-presented barn conversion with delightful gardens in the heart of the village.
Description
•The current owners purchased Crown Barn in 1999 when it had just been converted, so this makes it the first time on the market in 25 years.
•The property is of Cotswold stone construction under a reconstituted Stonesfield slate roof.
•The property enjoys a number of period features including open fireplace, exposed timbers and deep window boards.
•The property offers well-presented, light accommodation over three floors. Key aspects include a lovely central reception hall and galleried landing over with full height picture window and vaulted ceiling. Thereby allowing natural light to pervade throughout this space; vaulted kitchen and breakfast room with doors to the front and garden to the rear, establishing this room as very much the hub of the property; modern fixtures and fittings combine carefully with the charm of this delightful property thereby providing modern living amongst it’s age and charm; attention has been particularly paid to the kitchen, bath/shower rooms, ample built in storage cupboards, principal oak staircase and oak internal doors.
•Versatile bedroom accommodation with first floor snug and separate guest bedroom suite accessed from the study via the secondary staircase.
•Carefully and meticulously landscaped walled gardens providing formality through careful planting and several paved entertaining areas, to capture the sun at various times of the day. A timber pergola to the rear offers a lovely shaded seating area flanked by low box hedging.
•A tarmacadam driveway leads to the front of the property to an area of parking and double garage beyond. The double garage has light and power connected. To the side external stairs give access to a lovely bedroom suite ideal for guests or working from home.
•In all about 0.35 acres.
•This is undoubtedly a desirable barn conversion ideal for a modern family who want to take advantage of the space and privacy afforded by its position and, like the current owners, see themselves here for the next 20 or 25 years.
Location
Ascott-under-Wychwood is an attractive residential village, on the edge of the Cotswolds and is in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the Evenlode Valley. The village has a parish church, community shop, The Swan Inn and a village hall with a range of clubs including a thriving Folk Club and a very popular pre-school. There is an excellent cricket club at the community playing field with football clubs at Milton-under-Wychwood and Leafield. It is well placed for Burford and Chipping Norton (both about 6 miles), with Witney (9 miles) providing comprehensive amenities including a cinema complex.
Communications are excellent with the A40 providing fast access to Oxford and the M40 and also to the west to Cheltenham and the M5. There are good train services from Charlbury Station to London Paddington (average journey 83 minutes) and Oxford Parkway to Marylebone (57 minutes). A limited service runs from Ascott-under-Wychwood station. Sporting facilities within easy reach include regular horse eventing in the village, a league tennis club at Shipton-under-Wychwood, golf at The Wychwood (Lyneham, 2 miles) and Burford. The surrounding countryside provides wonderful country walks and riding. Good regional theatres are available in Oxford and the world famous RSC at Stratford-upon-Avon, with the local theatre at Chipping Norton offering cinema nights and workshops for children, as well as a variety of productions. World Heritage site Blenheim Palace is 20 mins away in the town of Woodstock.
It offers beautiful walks and an annual calendar of events. Primary schools are nearby in Leafield and Shipton-under-Wychwood, both highly regarded with ‘good’ Ofsted ratings, as is Burford School at secondary level. There are many excellent private schools within easy reach, including the highly regarded Windrush Valley Preparatory School, which is in the village. The Cotswolds’ year is packed with events ranging from world famous international festivals like Cheltenham Literature Festival and Cheltenham Gold Cup Week to major musical events such as the Wilderness Festival and the Big Feastival, as well as a jam-packed events calendar featuring concerts, exhibitions, arts and literature festivals and theatrical productions.
