Description
Stunning Cottage On A Two Acre Plot With Equestrian Facilities.

Oxford Farm is a beautiful, traditional timber-framed farmhouse, with a colour-washed roughcast coating and sits on approximately two acres which include a paddock, stable block suitable for three horses, hay barn, tack room, double garage and ample parking for a horse box and multiple cars.

On arrival to the property you are instantly greeted by Dicky the horse who grazes in the paddock by the stunning willow tree. It feels as though you are walking into a painting and sets the scene beautifully. The current owner described her first viewing of the house as “Love at first sight” and it is easy to see why. The house is simply stunning.

The rear garden is so pretty and great for entertaining with a large patio enjoying views between mature trees and shrubs over the paddock and countryside beyond. From the paddock, a field gate offers direct access to a bridal way and local hacking.

A lapsed planning application for a double story extension is something that could be of interest to the future owner and a separate timber garden building at the side of the property is currently being used as an office.

Accommodation

Entering from the rear of the property, a stable style back door opens up into a light and airy, double aspect breakfast room with views over the patio, garden and paddocks beyond. From here there are doors to both a downstairs cloak room and the kitchen.

Kitchen

A bespoke kitchen made by the local firm David James with a beautiful island, cleverly designed by the current owner. There is an impressive range of ey and base level cabinets and all the appliances are integrated with the exception of the bright red Range cooker. Directly off the kitchen there is both a well fitted utility room and a generous pantry / larder.

Sitting Room

The show-stopping Inglenook fireplace is the main feature of the living room and sets the tone to this wonderfully characterful and individual home. Exposed beams lovingly restored back to their original beauty and engineered oak floors make the space feel cosy and inviting. From here there are views over both the front and rear of the property and a door with porch giving access to the front of the house.

Dining Room

Separated from the sitting room by a row of exquisite oak beams, this sumptuous dining room also offers views over both the front and rear of the property and a pretty staircase gives access to the first floor.

First Floor

A very generous landing provides access to two beautifully presented double bedrooms, both with vaulted ceilings, and fully fitted cupboards. Off the master bedroom is a lobby with an airing cupboard and a door to a stunning, fully tiled bathroom with an Albian Isotherm roll top bath.

From the landing is a charming staircase leading to the second floor and a further bedroom referred to by the current owner as a “tower room” fit for a little prince or princess.

Outside

The front garden is mainly laid to lawn and screened from the road by a hedge, mature cherry trees and a rendered wall, which matches the house perfectly. A five bar gate and a gravel driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles, give access to the side of the house and a double garage with automated doors.

The rear garden is a quintessential English country cottage garden, with a large, stone paved patio, perfect for entertaining. As well as storage sheds and a greenhouse, there is a timber built outbuilding under a pantile roof which is currently used as a home office. Beyond the patio is a large lawned area with mature trees and shrubs and a large storage shed / hay barn.

Beyond the garden, is approximately 1.7 acres of paddocks with post and rail fencing and mature trees and hedging. From the paddock, there is direct access via a five bar gate to a bridleway, perfect for local hacking. Within the paddock, there is a stable block with three boxes and a large timber summer house.

Oxford Farm is located within walking distance of Keysoe primary school and is just a short drive from the highly regarded Kimbolton School. For commuters, St Neots town is just nine miles away and offers train services to London with a journey time of approximately forty minutes.
