A stunning stone barn conversion set in over two acres of magnificent grounds on the edge of the Cotswolds
Charity Barn, is a striking grade II listed home that has been beautifully extended and modified blending a traditional stone barn conversion with contemporary additions while maintaining a huge amount of character. The original Cotswold stone structure has been enhanced significantly by the addition of a glass extension wrapping around the western flank, linking the main house with a versatile and stylish conversion of the former cow shed which functions as a separate two bedroom, ancillary wing of the house with sitting room, or a cosy addition to the main accommodation. Central to the main house is an impressive entrance hall with windows at the rear extending into the eaves affording views of the garden from the hall and gallery landing above. The kitchen has been repositioned directly off the hall and extended to the rear with bi-folding doors that open onto the garden terrace. Beyond the kitchen is study and laundry room. Off the hallway there is also a sitting room with a log burner and stone surround, and French doors that lead out into the glass extension. Upstairs there are four bedrooms. The main bedroom is a very special room with a vaulted ceiling, built in wardrobe, an ottoman with remote retractable TV and a stunning en suite bathroom. There is another en suite bedroom, and two more bedrooms in the main house one of which has a mezzanine floor accessed via a spiral staircase perfect providing study space or a den.
The grounds extend to approximately 2.1 acres with a gravel driveway at the front and side. A Cotswold stone coach house at the front provides garaging, a secure workshop with cloakroom and a useful room above that runs the length of the building. The grounds are private and divided into two parts where formal gardens with a terrace stretching across the width of the house and large lawn interspersed with mature borders and trees, meets a copse at the far end with rambling trails amongst the array of mature trees. The neighbouring property, Charity Farm House requires a right of way across the far most corner of the drive for access to their own drive.
Charity Barn occupies a delightful edge of village setting with lovely views over paddocks to the front and two acres of private gardens to the rear. Nearby market towns of Witney and Burford offer a range of facilities including Waitrose, cinema, public houses, restaurants and The Burford Garden Centre. Oxford is the main shopping and cultural centre for the region as well as other commercial centres of Cheltenham, Swindon and Reading.
Charity Barn is well positioned for a range of excellent state and independent schools, including primary schools Witney, Bampton and Clanfield. Other excellent schools in the area include; St Hugh's, Cothill House Preparatory School, Cokethorpe, The Dragon and Oxford schools, Abingdon and Radley College.
The A40 provides access to the A34 at Oxford and Abingdon and trains run frequently from Oxford Parkway and Didcot Parkway to London Marylebone and Paddington. 4 miles to the south is the pretty market town of Bampton famed for its traditional Morris Men, Mummers, Great Shirt Race, opera and Downton Abbey film set. Within Bampton there is a grocer, butcher, Post Office, art gallery and a fine parish church, There is also a library, medical practice, a garden shop and four public houses.<br/><br/>
