About this property
A wonderful detached house situated in a most idyllic location.
Description
A wonderful detached house situated in a most idyllic location. The property dates from c. 1850 and has been extended over the years. Briefly comprises, entrance hall, study, open plan family room/kitchen, first floor sitting room, four bedrooms, bathroom, shower room and utility room. The house sits in grounds of around 1.4 acres and incorporates several seating areas, lawn, established shrubbery and woodland. In addition are two fantastic timber cabins, one has been designed as a substantial store/garage and the other is a two storey studio with views towards the ridgeway.
Location
Simsbury lies in an elevated position on the outskirts of Oxford on the edge of Shotover Park, an area of natural beauty and a protected nature reserve extending to around 117 hectares of woodlands, fields and hidden valleys. The park is accessible to the public for riding, walking and general recreation. Shotover lies to the east of Headington. Its proximity to the A40 and junction 8 of the M40 makes it extremely accessible to London and the north, and there is a regular train service to London Paddington from Oxford and, from Oxford Parkway, a regular service to London Marylebone. There is good access to the excellent hospitals and schools in Headington and Oxford, and Headington offers a wide selection of everyday shopping facilities, whilst Oxford city centre is only 3.5 miles away.
