Summary - Sycamore Farm Barn, Murcott OX5 2RE
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Large character barn with annexe income and development potential in Murcott.
Stone-built 5-bedroom barn conversion with exposed beams and wood burner
An impressive stone-built barn conversion set on a very large plot in Murcott, offering expansive living spaces and unspoilt countryside views. The main house has generous reception rooms with exposed beams, a wood burner and floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the interior with light, plus five double bedrooms and two bathrooms across the first floor. The property includes a separate stable block and a carport with a self-contained annexe above producing £800 pcm income.
This is a flexible rural home for buyers who prize space, character and outdoor access. The carport/annexe previously had planning permission to become a two-bedroom dwelling (permission has lapsed), so there is realistic potential to increase income or create independent accommodation subject to consent. The stable block could be adapted for home gym, office or garaging, or retained for storage or equestrian use.
Buyers should note several practical considerations: the house is heated by an oil boiler, the stone walls are assumed uninsulated, and the EPC is rated E. Flooding risk is assessed as medium for the location. Double glazing is fitted but the installation date is unknown. These are factors that may require investment to improve running costs and thermal performance.
Located in a quiet village close to Oxford and Bicester, the home benefits from excellent mobile and fast broadband, low local crime and access to good local schools and amenities. For purchasers seeking a roomy, characterful property with development potential and strong rural privacy, this barn offers a rare combination of size, versatility and views across open fields.
