Summary:

Used

Location:

Wytham, Oxon

Description:

The house lies on the corner of Linton and Chadlington Roads and occupies a large, mature plot of circa 0.38 of an acre. It was built in 1908 and retains many features of the period, with large bay windows, picture rails, and stripped wooden floors. There is accommodation over two floors, with five double bedrooms, and a large loft that could be converted subject to the necessary consents. The front door opens into the lobby, with a cloakroom to one side. The sitting room, study, and drawing room all face south overlooking the garden, with the drawing room and sitting room having large bay windows. The study has a door to the garden. The dining room is adjacent to the kitchen / breakfast room and both have large bay windows. All the main reception rooms benefit from high ceilings and good natural light. Off the kitchen are the scullery and larder, and across from it is the large utility room. There is also a further cloakroom and a laundry room. The first floor has the main bedroom with large bathroom adjacent, and there are four further double bedrooms, with a shower room and separate WC. There is a large loft, suitable for conversion. The current owners have lived in the house for nearly fifty years, and early in their occupation carried out a programme of works to the house in conjunction with the renowned architect Peter Aldington of Aldington and Craig Architects. Aldington has created more listed buildings than any other living British architect. The programme of work affected the whole house but is most notably visible in the kitchen, bathroom, and stairwell, though it now needs some refurbishment. The gardens surround the house, with pergola to the side and rear. Those to the front, east side, and rear are predominantly laid to lawn, with well stocked borders. Much of the garden is secluded, thanks to a handsome coverage of trees, including blue cedar, Norwegian maple, Liriodendron (Tulip Tree),. Still available at ListedBuy!
