Spacious period rectory with annexe, large gardens and village location.
Grade II Listed early 17th-century rectory with many original features
A substantial Grade II Listed Old Rectory dating from the early 17th century, newly renovated to blend original character with contemporary living. The house offers generous reception rooms, a modern kitchen with exposed beams and breakfast island, and an oak-framed sunroom with underfloor heating and garden views. Period features remain prominent: sash windows, multiple fireplaces, flagstone floors and bespoke shelving.
Practical family accommodation includes five double bedrooms across three floors, four bathrooms (two en-suites) and a flexible annexe above a secondary kitchen with its own shower room — ideal for guests, multi-generational living or rental income. Landscaped gardens wrap around the property with mature planting, lawns, stone walls and two outbuildings; previous planning permission existed for a drive-through garage and parking for the outbuildings.
Important considerations: the property’s Grade II listed status means alterations will be restricted and may require specialist consent and higher maintenance costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive, and local crime levels are reported as high. The house sits in a prosperous rural village with fast broadband and reasonable commuter links to Bicester and London, making it suited to families wanting character, space and village life while remaining within reach of transport links.
