Outside, the property provides extensive stabling and equestrian facilities, including a detached, timber-framed stable block with three stables and a tack room, a 60m x 19m outdoor arena and various paddocks for grazing/turnout. The gardens include areas of lawn and meadow to the front and rear, various mature trees and a wealth of shrubs and flowering perennials. Access is via a lane that leads to a hardstanding adjacent to the stables, and a parking area beside the house.
Situation
The property is located in a secluded rural setting on the edge of the village of Sandford St. Martin, some seven miles east of Chipping Norton and eight miles south of Banbury. The village is a quiet, rural community – a collection of period houses in sandcoloured stone, surrounded by beautiful countryside just outside The Cotswolds. There are some local amenities in the nearby village of Middle Barton, including pubs and restaurants and a local primary school. For further everyday amenities, Chipping Norton is close-at-hand, offering excellent shopping, a range of supermarkets, restaurants and cafes, and excellent leisure amenities. The area is well connected for transport, with the M40 just 10 miles away, and mainline rail services available at Heyford. Postcode region: OX7
