Description

This exquisite residence has been meticulously restored to the highest of standards, representing a seamless fusion where contemporary elegance meets regal, period authenticity. The result is a home of exceptional quality, defined by its considered interiors and faultless finishes.

Step inside to discover a calming palette that softens the grandeur of high ceilings, intricate historic panelling, and generously proportioned reception rooms. Minimalist in styling yet regal in stature, the interiors celebrate craftsmanship while maintaining a contemporary, liveable aesthetic.

An imposing front door opens to a light-filled entrance hall with oak panelling, an elegant central fireplace and original flagstone flooring. Period features have been maintained to enhance the richness offered by this historical era. These include open fireplaces, shuttered sash windows, window seats, simple cornicing, exposed timbers and elegant central staircase.

Generous ceiling height to the ground and first floor rooms, give the house a wonderfully light, spacious and elegant feel. The ground floor provides two reception rooms with shutters, each with a working fireplace. The extended kitchen and breakfast room is truly the hub of the home and overlooks the walled gardens. Here there are bespoke fitted units, integrated appliances, a Devol kitchen island, Carrara marble countertops, a two oven AGA and a combined utility and cloakroom. In addition, there is a closet with access to the cellar.

On the first floor, there are three generous bedrooms, including a principal bedroom, which has a magnificent en suite. There is a family bathroom on this floor. To the second floor there are two further bedrooms and a versatile sitting area.

Thoughtfully curated interiors, comprised of antiques and contemporary designer pieces, available on a turn-key basis, with or without contents.

A masterclass in timeless elegance and refined restoration, Catton House stands proudly in the heart of Aynho, the 'Apricot Village' of Oxfordshire. The property offers a rare blend of classic English charm and modern understated luxury.

Tucked away in the heart of the village, the property is entered through imposing gates into a large predominately stone walled garden, with a parking area which can comfortably accommodate several cars. The gardens are a fitting frame and backdrop to the house with level lawns, box hedging and topiary, paved entertaining areas. A second walled garden provides an entertaining terrace and faces west to enjoy the evening light and sunsets.

Location

Aynho is surrounded by rolling countryside with far-reaching views over the Cherwell Valley, it is famed for the growing of apricots. The ‘Apricot village’ can be traced back to Saxon times and has two restaurants and a café within the breathtaking RH at Aynho Park, a village hall offering a wide variety of community activities, a tennis court, a lovely playground and extensive playing fields.

There is also the historic St Michael’s Church which dates back to medieval times. Aynho is exceptionally well connected, offering a 50-minute direct train from nearby Bicester North to London Marylebone, or via the M40 J10 (4 miles) and Oxford (17 miles). Heathrow Airport is just over an hour away while Birmingham Airport is around 50 minutes, making the village perfectly placed for both business and leisure.

The property is strategically located, offering access to RH at Aynho Park, many charming Cotswolds villages, Soho Farmhouse, Estelle Manor and the boutiques and restaurants of Bicester Village.
