Sparsholt House is a classic Grade II listed edge of village house, situated in this quiet location within the Vale of White Horse. The current owners have completely refurbished the property with the works having been undertaken over a nine month refurbishment programme.

Beyond the kitchen/ breakfast room is a well fitted utility room, cloakroom and boot room. On the first floor are five bedrooms, two bathrooms and one adjoining shower room. There is also an attic room on the second floor which could be a potential sixth bedroom.
