The Old Court House is an elegant, chain-free four-bedroom home set within a converted Victorian civic building, arranged around a private courtyard close to Watlington town centre. High ceilings, original wood panelling and large sash windows give the principal rooms a sense of scale and character while modern conveniences include fitted kitchen appliances and gas central heating.
The house suits families who value space and period detail: a double-aspect sitting room with a carved wooden mantle, an elegant reception/dining room, and four double bedrooms upstairs including a master with en-suite. Off-road parking, a single garage and access to a south-facing communal walled garden add practical outdoor space within a small mews setting.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations. The building has solid brick walls (no cavity insulation assumed) and sash windows with only some secondary glazing, so there may be scope — and cost — for energy-efficiency improvements. The garden is shared with three other residents and the plot is small; council tax is above average.
Positioned less than a five-minute level walk from independent shops, cafes and excellent local schools, the house offers a desirable balance of character living and everyday convenience. Good road and public transport links to Oxford and London make it suitable for commuters seeking a stylish family home in a very affluent area.
