Chapel Lane, Northmoor, Oxfordshire OX29

Approached via a long private drive and hidden from view within beautifully established grounds, this remarkable Cotswold stone residence was rebuilt in 2007 and has been thoughtfully reconfigured to create a distinguished family home of immense charm and character.

Combining the timeless appeal of exposed beams, natural stone elevations and traditional craftsmanship with the comfort and practicality of modern living, the house offers generous and highly versatile accommodation designed around both family life and entertaining. Despite its wonderfully secluded position, the property is within easy walking distance of one of West Oxfordshire's most sought-after villages, providing the perfect balance between rural tranquillity and village convenience.

The house enjoys a magical position at the end of a no-through lane surrounded by farmland and lakes. A truly wonderful place to retreat and be creative, yet only a short walk from the heart of the popular village of Northmoor. The property has been the subject of an extensive programme of improvement, resulting in elegant and beautifully presented and versatile accommodation throughout.

Character features have been carefully preserved and enhanced, including exposed timbers, oak joinery and stone detailing, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere while providing a sophisticated finish.

The principal reception rooms offer an exceptional sense of space, with large windows and glazed doors drawing natural light into the interiors and providing seamless connections to the gardens and terraces beyond. The layout has been thoughtfully configured to suit modern lifestyles, with excellent areas for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living. At the heart of the house lies a superb kitchen and family space, designed as the social hub of the home, complemented by a series of beautifully proportioned reception rooms and flexible ancillary accommodation. The principal bedroom suite enjoys delightful views over the gardens and grounds, whilst the remaining bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for family and guests.

The setting is one of the property's defining attributes. Surrounded by mature trees and established landscaping, the grounds provide complete privacy and a rare sense of seclusion. Extensive stone terraces create exceptional outdoor entertaining spaces and are perfectly positioned to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Beyond, the gardens are principally laid to lawn with mature planting, specimen trees and seasonal colour, creating a beautiful backdrop to the house throughout the year. The long private approach enhances the feeling of arrival, ensuring the property remains entirely shielded from neighbouring properties and the outside world.

The property occupies an enviable position on the edge of one of West Oxfordshire's most desirable villages, renowned for its attractive period architecture, thriving community, local pub and excellent local amenities. The village provides an exceptional quality of life, with countryside walks and bridleways immediately accessible from the doorstep, while the nearby market towns of Witney, Burford and Woodstock offer an excellent range of shopping, dining and recreational facilities.

Communications are particularly convenient, with easy access to Oxford, the A40 and the wider motorway network, while regular rail services provide connections to London and the Midlands.
