A converted stone barn on a one-acre plot, offered as a nearly finished project with no onward chain.

Set within the Oxfordshire countryside on the outskirts of Witney, Hill Farm Barn is a striking stone and brick barn conversion offering a rare chance to complete a substantial renovation project to your own specification. Sold by auction, this is an opportunity for renovators or private buyers looking to put their own stamp on a characterful rural home.

The barn already shows real quality of work: exposed brick and weatherboard detailing to the gable end, and a beautifully finished open-plan kitchen/living area with bespoke shaker-style cabinetry, oak worktops, stone flagged flooring and French doors onto a patio. Several of the bathrooms are also complete, fitted with contemporary sanitaryware and tiling.

Arranged over three floors and extending to approximately 1,825 sq ft (169.6 sq m), plus a further 355 sq ft of patio space, the layout comprises an open-plan kitchen/living area, utility room and terrace to the ground floor; a main bedroom with its own shower room, two further bedrooms and another two bathrooms to the first floor; and two more bedrooms and a bathroom in the vaulted second-floor eaves space.

The property sits on a plot of around one acre and is entirely off-grid, powered by an installed solar array - a genuinely sustainable setup reflected in the property's impressive EPC rating of B, unusual for a barn conversion of this style.

This is an opportunity for a buyer who can see the finish line: the hard structural and first-fix work is largely done, with scope to complete to a high specification and add significant value.

Note - There is currently no registered council tax band for this property, so will become subject to that assessment. Purchaser will have to make their own arrangements with Thames Water to make formal and permanent connection. More information available by enquiry.
