Summary - GARDEN HOUSE MOLLINGTON BANBURY OX17 1BD
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Stately listed home with gardens, paddock and extensive outbuildings.
About 3.07 acres including paddock and wildlife pond
The Garden House is an unusually spacious, stone-built family home dating from the 17th century, set in about 3.07 acres of formal gardens, paddock and productive lower grounds. Period features — including original panelling in the drawing room, stone mullion windows, flagstone floors and exposed beams — give the house strong historic character while the extended kitchen/breakfast room and vaulted ceiling bring practical family living. The top garden is south-facing and features a fishpond, summerhouse and greenhouse; extensive outbuildings provide garaging, workshops and versatile storage with mains electricity and water connections.
Accommodation is arranged over multiple floors and includes a drawing room with 17th-century panelling, sitting/dining room with stone fireplace and log burner, an extended vaulted kitchen/dining area with Rangemaster, study and cellar space. There are four bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a separate WC on the upper floors. The property includes a paddock with wildlife pond and separate vehicular access from an adjacent village track — a rare combination of formal garden and usable grazing land close to village amenities.
Practical points to note: the house is Listed, which protects character but will complicate alterations and may restrict modernisation. Services include mains water and electricity, private drainage, LPG for cooking and oil-fired central heating. Council Tax Band E and private drainage are part of ongoing running costs. This is a home that will suit a buyer who values period charm, space and outbuildings, and who accepts the maintenance and consent obligations that come with a Listed rural property.
