A rare chance to own The Old School, Drayton — a striking Victorian conversion offering almost 3,000 sq ft of dramatic, light-filled living, fully renovated to the highest standard in 2016 by a reputable local builder, when the property was completely re-roofed, re-wired, re-plumbed and insulated throughout, and enhanced with eco upgrades including air source heat pump, solar panels with battery storage, underfloor heating and smart lighting.  This five-bedroom home combines historic character with modern efficiency, set within south-facing gardens and a unique additional rear plot that protects privacy, all just minutes from Oxford, Abingdon and London connections.
