Description

An 18th-century four bedroom converted stable block with 1,940 sq. ft. of high specification accommodation and double open garaging, set in a 0.56 acre rural plot with open countryside views. Oxleys dates back to 1724 and once formed part of Grange Farm, a Domesday manor granted before 1146 to Thame Abbey. In 2016, the stable block was converted to a contemporary home retaining original features. These include a stall partition in the sitting/dining room, vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and handmade ironwork window openings. All doors, window frames, and wooden floors are solid oak, and the ground floor benefits from underfloor heating.

The downstairs accommodation includes an entrance hall, which leads to a cloakroom, utility room, 30 ft. long sitting/dining room, the kitchen area and the study/family room. The entrance hall also has stairs to the first floor, which comprises four double bedrooms, two with built-in wardrobes and en suite shower rooms, and a family bathroom.

The enclosed rear garden is laid to lawn with a fenced, natural pond that was originally part of a medieval fishery. Overlooking the pond is a substantial decking area of over 500 sq. ft.

A part glazed oak framed door opens to the entrance hall which has a solid oak staircase to the first floor, with understair storage. There are exposed beams and the ground floor is tiled with underfloor heating. The open plan sitting/dining room has solid oak flooring with views over paddock land and open countryside. There is a wood burning stove set on a slate hearth with an exposed flue, a stall partition from the original stables, and an opening into the kitchen/breakfast room. At the front of the property is the study/family room which overlooks the driveway to the paddock land and the natural pond.
