Markhams Court, Charlton on Otmoor

A beautifully presented detached home in a well-connected village location, this charming property has been thoughtfully built in stone to complement its surroundings. Offering a blend of character, modern living and excellent access to the city, this property would make a wonderful family home in an Oxfordshire village, within 10 miles of the city centre and surrounded by beautiful walks through the local conservation land.

There is a spacious entrance, with double doors that lead into the bright and welcoming reception room, where patio doors provide direct access to the garden. The sleek, modern kitchen features a breakfast bar, integrated NEFF appliances and a filtered cold and boiling water tap. The open-plan layout incorporates a dining area, with bi-fold doors creating a seamless connection between the kitchen, dining space and garden. There is also the added convenience of a separate utility room and cloakroom.

Upstairs, the property offers three double bedrooms and two en-suites, and a further single bedroom. There is also a stylish tiled bathroom with a walk-in shower.

Outside, the garden features a patio area, ideal for relaxing and outdoor dining, together with a well-maintained lawn. The property also benefits from a driveway providing parking for two cars, along with two additional guest parking spaces shared between the houses within the courtyard. Two small sheds are discreetly positioned to the side of the property, providing useful storage without taking up valuable garden space.

Location

Set within a peaceful Oxfordshire village, the property enjoys a wonderful balance of rural tranquillity and excellent connectivity. The village has a community feel, with a local pub with its own Aunt Sally team, adding to the traditional village atmosphere. There are also three local farms offering a lovely selection of fresh homemade produce, including eggs, jams, cakes, vegetables, and flowers and plants.

The village church provides regular services and hosts a variety of community events throughout the year, including popular tea and cake mornings. For those who enjoy dining out, the neighbouring village is home to the renowned Michelin-starred restaurant, The Nut Tree, just a few minutes' drive away.

Nature is also right on the doorstep, with beautiful countryside walks through the surrounding local conservation land. The village itself is particularly peaceful, with very little through traffic. As a result, the village remains quiet and undisturbed, with passing traffic generally limited to those visiting or travelling to and from Charlton-on-Otmoor.

Despite its rural setting, the property is well connected to Oxford and beyond. A bus service passes just outside the village, providing convenient access to Oxford, while the nearby Park & Ride offers an alternative route into the city. There are also bus connections to Bicester, with Islip railway station providing further travel options.

For journeys further afield, both Islip and Bicester railway stations offer convenient connections, while Thornhill Park & Ride provides bus services to Oxford, London and Heathrow Airport.
