Summary - Little Brixeys, Bourton SP8 5AX
7 bed 3 bath Detached
Secluded seven-bedroom estate with outbuildings, paddock and huge private grounds.
About 6.5 acres of gardens, paddock and mature trees
Set well away from the village edge in a private, sun-facing position, this substantial Edwardian detached house occupies about 6.5 acres of gardens, paddock and woodland. The house offers large, high‑ceilinged rooms, seven bedrooms and three reception rooms laid out to take full advantage of southerly views across the grounds. A detached L‑shaped former stable and garage block provides parking, workshop space and a versatile party barn with clear scope for conversion subject to consent.
The property has retained many original fittings — stone mullion windows, fireplaces, timber and tiled floors and painted panelling — and has been in long ownership with ongoing updates over the years. The current layout includes a capacious drawing room (originally two rooms), a fitted kitchen with larder, five principal first‑floor bedrooms plus two attic rooms and an en‑suite, offering potential for a multi‑generational layout or a self‑contained staff/annexe space.
Practical considerations: the house is sold freehold but is described as in need of renovation in places, so buyers should expect remedial work, updating and redecoration. Heating is oil‑fired with boiler and radiators, broadband speeds and mobile signal are good, and there is no recorded flood risk. Council tax is noted as quite expensive and any conversion of outbuildings will require planning consent.
This home suits a family seeking seclusion and space, or buyers wanting a character property with development potential. Its position near Bourton gives easy access to village amenities, good local schools and main road and rail links — combining rural privacy with practical connectivity.
