Description

This Grade II* listed manor house and gardens in Oxfordshire's Toot Baldon village offers a rare opportunity to acquire a property rich in character and charm. The architecturally distinctive residence has been a cherished family home for nearly half a century and now requires a comprehensive modernization program. The property boasts a striking Philip Johnson-inspired "Glass House" extension, a traditional oak-framed garage, and plans to refurbish the kitchen and roof void to create an additional ensuite bedroom. The house features original architectural and design details, including stone mullioned leaded light windows, wooden shutters, and ancient carved stone fireplaces. The walled garden is a highlight, with well-stocked herbaceous borders, mature shrubs, and trees, as well as a summerhouse with long views towards Garsington. The village offers easy access to Oxford and London, and there are numerous footpaths and bridleways surrounding the property.
