Description
The Old Forge is a deceptively spacious, detached Grade II listed house set in the popular village of Bloxham. Having undergone extensive renovation over recent years, the property provides beautifully styled interiors, whilst retaining a wealth of character features.
A charming, open plan living / dining room creates a wonderful central space within the house and provides a perfect contrast of modern styling with character features, including beams, window seats and a feature fireplace with wood burning stove.
The kitchen includes a practical island unit with breakfast bar, a gas fired Aga, quartz tops and integrated appliances. This leads to useful utility room with Belfast sink and back door into the garden. The ground floor also includes a separate sitting room, WC, and study with in-built shelving and feature fireplace.
One wing of the first floor comprises a spacious principal bedroom with vaulted ceiling, which leads into a versatile walk-in wardrobe and dressing room area and onto a generous and stylish en suite bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower.
The first floor also includes a second generous double bedroom with ensuite shower room, a further bedroom and a family spacious shower room.
The top floor provides a charming fourth bedroom, including a bespoke in-built bed and shelving unit and ample storage space at the other end of the room. There is a further loft space offering extra potential, subject to any necessary permissions.
In front of the property is a private off-street parking area. Plus there is a further, electric gated driveway with parking for several cars, as well as a substantial shed.
The enclosed garden includes a large terrace with ample space for al fresco dining and a hot tub. There is also a lawn, flower beds and mature trees.
