5 Bedroom Detached House

A handsome Victorian stone home (circa 1871) set in the heart of Wheatley, thoughtfully improved over many years to create a beautifully balanced family house arranged over three floors. Positioned within a conservation area (not listed), the property blends period character with practical modern updates, including a new roof, new boiler and Megaflow system, a new kitchen, utility improvements and a third floor conversion providing additional bedroom space and an ensuite shower room. The accommodation offers excellent flexibility for family life and entertaining, complemented by a smartly landscaped frontage with a recently updated driveway and outbuilding, and the benefit of a garage on the premises. The sellers also note the property has not suffered from flooding and they are not aware of any structural issues.

Accommodation:
Entrance hall, reception rooms, kitchen, utility room, bathrooms and WC facilities, bedrooms arranged across the first, second and third floors, garage, driveway parking, and landscaped external areas.

Location:

There is good access to the nearby A40 leading into Oxford, and the M40 (Jct 8) for London or Birmingham. Regular trains run from Thame Parkway Station to London Marylebone and there are regular bus services to Thame and Oxford.

In the Owner's words:
"We have loved living in the property for the past 26 years. It was the house we brought up our children in who have now all flown the nest and forging lives of their own. We have now retired and spend much of our time traveling and we believe the property now needs to be enjoyed by a new owner. The main reason we chose to purchase the property was its location to the schools along with being in a small but vibrant village which offers all the essential amenities. We needed a large house to accommodate our family and have always been big fans of Victorian architecture. The house, when we purchased it, needed modernising which enable us to put our own ideas into practice which has resulted, in our opinion, a beautiful period house with excellent configuration of the internal living space."
