Church Hanborough, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX29

A rarely available family smallholding set in around 5.28 acres, enjoying a semi-rural setting between Church Hanborough and Long Hanborough.

SITUATION AND LOCATION

Midway is a rarely available rural smallholding occupying a peaceful position between Church Hanborough and Long Hanborough, within walking distance of both villages, which offer local pubs, shops and schools. The holding has remained within the same family for generations, having originally been acquired by the family following the Second World War, and is now offered to the market for the first time in 70 years.

Despite its semi-rural setting, the property is exceptionally well connected, with local amenities close by, with Hanborough railway station providing direct services to London Paddington, approximate 1 hour journey time.

Constructed nine years ago, the house is complemented by gardens, grassland and paddock extending in all to 5.28 acres.

DESCRIPTION

Constructed in facing stone, the house provides spacious and flexible family accommodation.

A welcoming reception hall with oak flooring leads to a large open-plan sitting and dining area with a central wood burner and doors opening onto the garden.
The kitchen/breakfast room enjoys dual-aspect views over the gardens and paddock and is connected to a separate utility/boot room. A flexible ground-floor double bedroom can also serve as a family room or study, with a shower room alongside.

Upstairs are three further double bedrooms, an additional bedroom/store room and a family bathroom with bath, walk-in shower and vanity unit.

OUTSIDE

The grounds are a defining feature of Midway. Double gates open to a generous gravel driveway with ample parking, while a detached double garage provides further parking and storage.

Gardens wrap around the house with lawns, mature planting, two patio areas, a vegetable garden and large polytunnel. Beyond lies extensive grassland and paddock which we are advised has remained predominantly grass for many years, creating a natural setting with abundant wildlife and established woodland beyond.

The grounds currently incorporate a private two-hole golf pitch and putt, illustrating the scale and recreational potential of the land. There is also scope for growing produce, establishing an orchard, or keeping chickens or small livestock, subject to the usual considerations.

In all, the property extends to 5.28 acres, offering an unusual combination of space, privacy, and country lifestyle in a well-connected Oxfordshire location.
