Description
Perfect for both family life and entertaining guests, the house boasts a wealth of amenities including a 12.5 metre indoor swimming pool, Sonos sound system, cinema room, rooftop garden, and multiple lounging and dining areas.
Designed with sustainability in mind, there is underfloor heating, rainwater harvesting, mechanical ventilation for clean air, and air source heat pumps, ensuring low running costs and high future value.
The property is a serene countryside retreat offering modern conveniences and city amenities just 10 minutes away.
The house is on top of Boars Hill, and so has wonderful far-reaching views. After waking up to sweeping views of the surrounding hills and countryside from the principal bedroom's balcony, start your day with an invigorating workout in the gym or a refreshing swim in the pool, followed by a detoxifying session in the steam room or sauna.
Head downstairs to enjoy an al fresco breakfast prepared in the fully equipped Futura Kitchen by Cucina Colore. Whether you choose the outdoor terrace, rooftop garden, or smart drawing room, there are plenty of spots to relax with your morning coffee while catching up on news or emails.
In the summer, children can open the pool's doors for a day of fun in the garden with friends. On cooler days, the bespoke cinema offers a perfect setting for watching blockbuster movies.
Equipped with Gigaclear high-speed internet and a Sonos sound system throughout, the property is ideal for entertaining guests. Its spacious courtyard provides ample parking, and guests can enjoy an aperitif on the terrace before a delightful dinner in the expansive dining room. Later, Oxford's renowned theatres are just a short drive away for an evening's entertainment.
The house is named after the elegant European beech tree within the grounds, and shines with its sunlit spaces, clean lines, and sustainable design features.
