Summary - AKEMAN COTTAGE, HIGH STREET OX7 3AU
10 bed 1 bath Land
Massive private plot with planning for 60 acres and unrivalled AONB views.
Elevated south‑west plateau with 30+ mile protected AONB views
A truly rare development opportunity set on a massive private plot in the highly sought OX7 postal area. The site occupies an elevated south‑west facing plateau with uninterrupted 30+ mile views across protected Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Planning is referenced for 60 acres of designed gardens, woodlands, walking paths and a private lake to complement the principal residence.
The listing describes a signature Palladian residence of exceptional scale and bespoke specification. The property’s strengths include absolute privacy (no public footpaths or viewpoints), very low local crime, fast broadband and easy helicopter access to London‑area heliports. Nearby schooling includes highly rated local primaries and independent options for families.
Important factual points and limitations are stated plainly: the advertised 80,000 sq ft main residence conflicts with a supplied total floor area of 807 sq ft in the dataset — this discrepancy must be resolved before purchase. Tenure is unknown and only a single bathroom is recorded in the supplied details, which will affect practical planning and cost estimates. The site is new build with planning referenced, but build, delivery timelines, and planning conditions should be verified.
This is an exceptional plot for a buyer seeking a legacy estate or an ultra‑high‑value private residence in a protected rural setting. It will suit purchasers prepared to manage a major project and confirm technical and legal details (area measurements, tenure, services and planning conditions) prior to exchange. Images and floorplans are illustrative and further information may require confidentiality arrangements.
