Full Details for 4 Bedroom Property for sale in Abingdon, OX13 :

“My wife and I bought Grange Barn just over eight years ago,” says David. “We were already living in the area, which we like because it’s quite a select place and very peaceful, but we wanted to downsize. The minute my wife walked into the huge sitting room with it’s vaulted ceiling and doors onto the garden, that was it, this was to be the house for us… although it wasn’t much of a downsize!”This lovely home, which sits on a quiet lane in the heart of the sleepy hamlet of Frilford, began life as an old farm outbuilding, but in recent years has been thoughtfully and beautifully converted into a spacious family home. “We were the first to own the property after the conversion,” says David, “so we didn’t have to do an awful lot to it except put our stamp on it. We put oak flooring into the sitting room and added a huge inglenook to create a focal point. It’s very nice, but we’ve never had to use the fire as the under-floor heating is so efficient.”Each of the rooms within this beautiful home is spacious and beautifully presented, but it is the main sitting room that provides the real wow factor. At forty-one feet long, it takes up almost the entire space within the original barn, and yet it has been designed to have a cosy and welcoming feel. It also incorporates an area for dining and a raised mezzanine ‘snug’, providing the ideal space for quiet contemplation, and the old cart door has been glazed to create a wonderful connection to the outside space.“From the sitting room there are French doors which lead out into garden,” says David. “It’s surrounded by an old stone wall so it’s not only sheltered but also extremely peaceful and private. Before moving here I had to look after four acres of land, now it can be done in under and hour and I can sit back and really enjoy it.”“The location is definitely something that I shall miss when I move,” says David. “It’s very peaceful and beautiful, and yet I’m close to everything. Oxford, Abingdon, Witney, they’re all close by, and it’s a great location for commuters as it’s only a matter of minutes to either the M40 or the M4, and we have a number of mainline stations close by. It’s a case of having the best of both worlds.”“It really is time to downsize now,” concludes David, “but I’ll miss everything about this house, especially its peacefulness and privacy.”
