Full Details for 7 Bedroom Town House for sale in Watlington, OX49 :
High Street House is an imposing and beautifully presented Grade II* listed early Georgian townhouse, situated in the heart of the attractive historic market town of Watlington, extending to 5,573 sq ft with secure off street parking, garage and attractive walled garden.
SITUATION
High Street House is the principal period house in this attractive south Oxfordshire market town. Watlington has an excellent range of shops and restaurants including a butcher, a cheese shop/delicatessen, hardware store, Co-op, post office and various other useful stores including a covered market and a petrol station. There is also a doctor's surgery and a public library. There are numerous public footpaths and bridleways in the nearby Chiltern Hills, together with good local golf courses and boating on the River Thames at Henley. Commuter routes are also close by including Junction 6 of the M40 providing easy access to the Midlands and London. The Oxford tube runs from Lewknor every 10mins to London.
HIGH STREET HOUSE
High Street House has beautiful classic red brick elevations with sliding sash windows under a clay tiled roof. Believed to date from the early 1700s and Grade II* Listed, High Street House now provides a wonderful mix of family accommodation over three floors. The principal reception rooms are delightful with panelled walls, lovely fireplaces and good ceiling heights. Sliding sash windows and shutters enhance the character, and there is extensive cellarage for the wine enthusiast. The kitchen and adjoining breakfast room work well together, and there is planning permission to extend the house at the rear to provide a bigger kitchen/breakfast room arrangement (Planning Reference No. P14/S3660/HH) On the first and second floors is an excellent mix of between 6 and 8 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a shower room en suite, depending on how a buyer wishes to use the accommodation, which is flexible.
OUTSIDE High Street House is approached either from its access into the drive-through double garage on the High Street or on a day to day basis the alternative drive access coming off Couching Street under an archway to an electrically operated security gate with code panel. This provides parking for 2 or 3 cars and there is additional parking closer to the house if required on a cobbled and gravelled courtyard. The courtyard area provides a charming sitting and informal garden area bounded by stone and brick rose-clad walls with lower herbaceous border and brick retaining wall. There is a flagstone terrace adjoining the two timber outhouses for bikes and log storage, etc., beyond which lies lawn with creeper-clad brick walls and a lovely silver birch tree. Mature beech hedging separates the westernmost part of the garden where there is topiaried foliage, further lawn and herbaceous border, and mature yew hedging neatly separating the parking.
