Description
Tucked away in a peaceful, secluded location, The Clock House is approached via a long driveway, offering a sense of privacy and tranquillity, perfect for those seeking a quiet retreat. This exceptional property comprises three distinct parts: the main house (The Clock House), The Barn and The Cottage.
Distinguished by its semi-circular windows and the clock tower on the roof, The Clock House benefits from period features and views over the beautiful rear gardens throughout the property. There are three reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, and three bedrooms, with the potential for a fourth bedroom or a study.
The detached, converted barn is an excellent size and filled with natural light. The spacious ground floor rooms have underfloor heating, while upstairs, two rooms are linked by a bridge inspired by Monet's Bridge. The barn is currently being used as a photographic studio, however, with 2152 sqft of accommodation, it could be easily adapted.
The one bedroom detached cottage has approved planning permission for an extension and a new garage, with footings already constructed and signed off by the Vale of White Horse, allowing you to enhance and expand the space.
To the rear of the property, the landscaped gardens are a true highlight. A stream flows through the grounds, complemented by a well-maintained vegetable garden and mature fruit trees
Marcham is a sought-after village with excellent transport links. Facilities within the village include a post office, farm shop, public house, church and popular primary and nursery schools. Marcham also benefits from its own cricket, football and tennis clubs, and neighboring Frilford Heath has a national standard golf club.
Communications are marvelous with the A34 within a short drive linking to the M40 and M4, and also Didcot Parkway Station offering a fast train service to London Paddington in about 35 minutes. Heathrow Airport is located via the A34 and M4.
There is also excellent local schooling with Cokethorpe, Cothill, Chandlings and The Manor all close by, along with St Helen's and St Katharine's, St Hugh's, The Manor School, Abingdon school and Abingdon Prep School within easy reach. Christchurch, Magdalen College, St. Edward's, Radley College, and The Dragon can be found in Oxford.
Directions: From Oxford, take the A420 towards Swindon. At the first roundabout, bear left onto the A338 to Wantage. On reaching Frilford, turn left into Faringdon Road, and right after a short distance, Sheepstead Road will be found on the right hand side. Continue over the two cattle grids and the property will be seen just after on the right hand side.
