6 bedroom detached house for sale

Shellingford House is a beautiful home with a rich and important history that never ceases to surprise and delight. Nestled within 8 acres of glorious grounds, and in the heart of this picturesque village, it offers a truly wonderful way of life. This Grade II Listed Elizabethan property is steeped in history and full of stories, with some wonderful original features and nods to its past, with beautiful windows allowing light to flood in to every room, an incredible Jacobean staircase, and many more wonderful distinctive attributes. The main house has over 7,000 sq ft of flexible and generous accommodation over three floors, with 6-7 bedrooms, 4 reception rooms, as well as a studio and office. Additionally, there are two cottages, offering great potential for visiting family, multi-generational living, or rental potential. Shellingford House is exceptional in that it is a village house with a large mature garden that offers privacy, plus land in the shape of a pretty five-acre field before it, onto which the house looks. This offers space to keep horses, ponies, marquees for entertaining, or even a helipad should you require! If you kept a pony, you would simply lead it from the field into the garden where the stables are found. The garden is walled, so its safe for children and pets, and it feels contained and extremely private. The grounds and gardens are very special indeed, with surprises and special moments at every turn, including a beautiful courtyard, secret garden with tree house, orchard, tennis court, stream and the most exquisite outdoor swimming pool. As well as being a magnificent property of grand proportions, Shellingford House has a real warmth to it and is a family home that has clearly been loved and enjoyed over the years.
