The village is designated as a Conservation Area and lies within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property is built in the Tudor style and retains many period features such as attractive cast-iron lattice windows, open fireplaces and high ceilings.
This distinctive property, formerly two cottages, has had planning permission granted and been transformed to a beautiful two-storey cottage, a four bedroom, four-bathroom home, with kitchen/dining room, drawing room, sitting room, media/games room and study - a wonderful family home.
The delightful gardens are laid out on three terraces with lawns for sitting out, a mature orchard with garden paths leading to a “summer house” by the ford and a weeping-willow walk. Well-stocked flower beds give an all-year-round display, along with shrubbery and beautiful mature trees, with Cotswold dry-stone walls marking the boundaries. Two painted picket gates lead out on to the village lane. The “summer house” has been converted to a one bedroom en suite.
Burford 3.5 miles, Witney 7.5 miles, Charlbury 8 miles (London Paddington 85 minutes), Oxford Parkway 17 miles (London Marylebone 57 minutes), Daylesford 11 miles, Soho Farmhouse 15 miles, London Heathrow 61 miles, Central London 73 miles (all times and distances approximate).
Swinbrook Place occupies one of the most idyllic settings in the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The quintessential Cotswold village of Swinbrook lies on the River Windrush with the highly-regarded Swan Inn public house and cricket club.
Burford's vibrant and famous town is nearby with its excellent selection of shops, restaurants and hotels, with the market towns of Stow-on-the -Wold and Witney close to hand, providing a range of supermarkets, including Waitrose at Witney. An essential feature of Cotswold life for many includes Daylesford and Soho Farmhouse, both of which are within easy striking distance. Communications are excellent with the A40 providing fast access to Oxford, the M40 and the west to Cheltenham and the M5. There are good train services from Charlbury Station (15-minute drive) to London Paddington (approximately 85 minutes) and Oxford Parkway to Marylebone (57 minutes).
Sporting facilities within easy reach include racing at Cheltenham and Newbury, golf at Burford and Frilford Heath, hunting with the Heythrop, and adjoining vwh. The surrounding countryside provides excellent country walks and riding along with shooting and fishing in the vicinity.
Good regional theatres are available in Oxford, Cheltenham and the world famous rsc at Stratford-upon-Avon. Oxfordshire is a county that is also blessed with a range of good schools with The Dragon, Cothill and St.Hughs, Summerfields, Oxford High and Magdalen College School and St Edwards at Oxford. Abingdon School, St Helen's & St Katherine's, Radley, the Cheltenham Colleges, Kitebrook at Moreton-in-Marsh and Tudor Hall in Banbury all nearby.
