4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Weston Road, Bletchingdon, Kidlington, Oxfordshire OX5

Description
Situated in a conservation area in the heart of Bletchingdon and just away from the village Green, The Malt House is a stone-built classic Georgian-fronted Grade II listed former farmhouse with origins thought to date back to the early 19th Century (Historic England) but with elements dating further back. A sympathetic restoration has taken place of the original farmhouse and a contemporary extension has been added to the rear to create a fabulous family kitchen with bifold doors which open out onto an extensive patio area. The reception hall, with stairs rising to the upper floors, leads the sitting room and ground floor bedroom with ensuite shower room. The upper floors have been cleverly designed with two of the three bedrooms having its own access to a further area; bedroom two has a mezzanine floor and bedroom three has direct access to one of the loft rooms, currently used as a work space with an interconnecting door to a second loft room accessed from the landing. There is much retained character with sash windows, exposed beams and a beautiful stone fireplace with log burner in the sitting room. The kitchen and bathrooms are fitted in a contemporary style which complements the character of the restoration.

The annexe is located at the end of the garden and arranged over two floors, currently being used as a gym on the ground floor and studio on the first where there is also a shower room.
The property is set back from the road with an extensive block paved driveway with stone retaining walls and areas of lawn. The front garden is walled and also houses an extraordinary model village built in stone with accurate models of cottages, churches, gardens and a pond. The rear garden is partly enclosed with stone walling and is mainly laid to lawn with a garden store. It extends to approximately 100 feet.
