House For Sale £2,950,000
Beautifully renovated in 2017, this stunning property has been sympathetically restored to a high standard with much attention to detail to provide a wonderful family home. The house also has the benefit of a spacious ancillary annexe - ideal for additional family members - which can be used separately or integrated into the main house. In addition, there is a studio/gym, garaging for 4 cars and garden stores amongst the most attractive setting of the landscaped gardens to the front and rear.
This stunning family home, which is believed to date between the late 18th and early 19th centuries, provides well-proportioned and particularly light accommodation with many retained features from this elegant era. These include high ceilings with cornicing, sash and floor to ceiling windows with shutters, fireplaces and an elegant entrance hall with staircase.
The ground floor provides superb family living and entertaining space, with a formal double aspect drawing/dining room and a spacious everyday family living area centred around the kitchen. The kitchen with 4-oven Aga and integrated appliances opens to the breakfast room overlooking the front garden, with a large skylight providing an abundance of natural light. Also opening from the kitchen are the family room and garden room - each attractive rooms divided by a central fireplace with woodburning stove serving both rooms. The garden room has a large skylight and French doors to the garden. The remainder of the ground floor comprises of a home office, laundry room with access to the garden, and a cloakroom. In addition, a cellar is accessed from the entrance hall. Continuing the ground floor, the annexe with separate front door, includes an entrance hall with cloakroom and utility room, a study area, open-plan kitchen and an attractive sitting/dining room with fireplace and doors to the rear garden and terrace.
At first floor level are six double bedrooms, three of which are en-suite along with the family bathroom. Two of the bedrooms have direct access to the ground floor of the annexe.
Complementing the house, the gardens have been beautifully landscaped and provide a most attractive setting. Set back from the road, the front garden provides a lovely outlook from the house and enjoys a secluded dining terrace leading off the breakfast room. The main garden is arranged to the rear and is principally laid to lawn with mature borders, shrubs, trees, pathways and a large terrace next to the house. A separate grassed area away from the main garden provides an ideal less formal area for children.
The house is approached through wrought iron gates leading to a parking area and continues past the house to the garages at the rear. Adjoining the garages is a studio/gym along with a workshop and garden store.
Situation
Surrounded by beautiful open countryside, the pretty village of Islip is highly sought-after due to being conveniently located just five miles from Oxford and having a number of excellent popular commuter links.

The community is vibrant and supportive, offering a village primary school, church, village hall with a general store, pub and an nhs medical practice. More comprehensive amenities can be found in nearby Summertown and Kidlington, where secondary schooling is available. There are also many excellent private schools in and around Oxford.
