An exceptional family home in glorious gardens and grounds.
Woody Lane House lies on the edge of Charlbury in this enviable setting, with views over the beautiful gardens and far reaching countryside views to the west from the drawing room. Built in 1993, this impressive detached family house has been carefully extended and reconfigured to create an exceptional family home of considerable style and character. With generously proportioned and flexible accommodation arranged over three floors, it lends itself perfectly to family living and entertaining. The welcoming reception area and dining hall set the scene for the proportions, style and finish throughout the property. The centrepiece is undoubtedly the stunning open plan kitchen/dining/family room, perfect for entertaining and family gatherings, with the feeling of light and space enhanced by windows and folding doors opening to the gardens. The hand-built kitchen, with quality appliances, has been tastefully designed and, for quieter moments, there is a large study. The light, triple aspect drawing room has a wood burning stove, and doors open to the terrace with west facing views over countryside. There are six good bedrooms on the upper floors, three with en suites, together with a family bathroom and an additional shower room.
The leisure complex is particularly appealing. The pool is very practical and useable all year round, since it adjoins the main house and has been designed with full length windows and patio doors on all sides to enjoy the views over the gardens, together with seating space to relax poolside.
