Description
In the same family ownership for many years, The Old House is a substantial character home dating back to the late 1700?s/early 1800?s and formerly the village bakery. Although nestled in the heart of North Leigh, a very pretty village between Witney and Woodstock, this attractive, individual home is nicely secluded and not visible from the road. A characterful property offering a superb opportunity for refurbishment to create a wonderful family home with a two acre plot, countryside views and outbuildings. The spacious accommodation offers circa 2700 sq ft of living space with period features including inglenook fireplace, gas Aga, tiled floors, flagstones, and beams.
The walled garden enjoys a high degree of privacy, and offers a mix of mature plants, lawn, vegetable plot, and trees. A paved area is a delightful spot to enjoy alfresco entertaining whilst taking in the truly delightful outdoor space. The tree-lined driveway leads to ample parking with the additional benefit of two garages and plenty of outdoor storage. This wonderful property would make an ideal small holding or a great space for a horse owner with excellent riding all around the area. Opportunities of this nature are seldom seen on the open market, and an appointment to view is essential to fully appreciate all this wonderful country home has to offer.
North Leigh lies midway between Woodstock and Witney and has a village shop/post office, library, church and pub. A bus service operates to Oxford (9 miles) and the local market town of Witney (3 miles). A landmark is the disused windmill located at the heart of the village. It boasts an excellent primary school and sports teams for both cricket and football, and Memorial Hall that hosts many local activities. There is also an active Youth Club with its own premises. A small supermarket and further amenities are available in nearby Long Hanborough. There are many good country walks nearby. Oxford is also easily accessed via the A40 and at Hanborough station there are regular trains into Oxford/London. The nearby market town of Witney also has a variety of shops, restaurants, a leisure centre and cinema.
