We’re delighted to introduce Charles Cottages, a stunning four-bedroom country residence in the sought-after Oxfordshire village of Childrey, that comes complete with its own little piece of history. This Grade II Listed country house is an amalgamation of a terrace of cottages, the former village blacksmith’s forge and the wheelwrights barn. In 1644, at the height of the English Civil War, King Charles I rested in Childrey for several days while travelling between Oxford and Marlborough and had his horse shod at the smithy. The name Charles Cottages commemorates the royal patronage.Now a comfortable and stylish home, the 500-year-old Charles Cottages is a wonderful example of period restoration with extensive and spacious living areas. Magnificent beamed ceilings, lime-plastered and panelled walls, original fireplaces and flagstone floors are among its prime vintage features.The current owners have undertaken a major refurbishment and reconfiguration of this beautiful heritage period home – and the results speak for themselves. Charles Cottages is beautifully presented, radiating mellow character and a rare authenticity whilst offering all the comforts of a 21st-century lifestyle. It would suit a spectrum of home-seekers from those with a young family to downsizers in search of a peaceful rural retirement, or equally it would make a great ‘lock up and leave’ to escape to at weekends and holidays.Charles Cottages nestles centrally in Childrey amidst beautifully landscaped gardens, handily near the village shop and coffee bar, farm shop, pub and church. Here you have all the facets of a comfortable rural lifestyle in one of those picture-postcard villages that home-hunters aspire to live in, and then remain for years - that’s why premium homes here so rarely come up for sale.We’re sure you want to learn all the finer details of the delightful Charles Cottages . .Country Living At Its Very BestWith an unusually generous plot for the centre of a village, Charles Cottages has the undoubted bonus of gravelled parking for four cars and planning permission for a timber 3 bay garage. It’s an attractive merger of white-washed cottages – one of them thatched – the red-brick building which was the blacksmith’s forge and the barn which was the wheelwright’s.The current owners clearly have an exquisite eye for detail and the front door opens into a lovely spacious, light and airy entrance hall with painted floorboards and winding flagstone steps down to the 20x16ft kitchen/breakfast room - similarly flooded with light thanks to windows front and rear - with original flagstone floor, profusion of ceiling beams and cosy farmhouse vibe, all warmed by a traditional aga stove.The spacious kitchen/breakfast room has been totally refurbished with fitted units, a large marble-topped central island, Belfast sink, American-style fridge/freezer and aga stove. Just off the kitchen is a large, easily accessible cellar for storing groceries and your wine collection at the perfect temperature.Leading off the kitchen is an attractive overhead-lit rear lobby, also accessed from the entrance hall, with a door to the rear garden.To the right of the kitchen is the wonderful dining hall – the jewel in the crown of this lovely home. Built out of the former wheelwright’s barn, this splendid Medieval-style hall measures 30ft x 26ft and has a high timber vaulted roof with statement cross beams, original white-painted stone walls and oak flooring. It’s the perfect place to entertain, complete with a cosy lounge area to relax in front of the wood-burner. Glazed French doors lead onto the stylish garden terrace and, tucked away in the corner, there’s a utility room containing the washing machine and dryer and a big storage cupboard.Head back through the entrance hall and discover the delightfully spacious 18x18ft drawing room, a refined and tranquil haven that’s perfect for entertaining guests in front of the open inglenook fireplace. This leads on to a second sitting room with original brick flooring. This cosy room is sure to be where the family will gather around the wood-burner - set within another magnificent inglenook - and relax in front of the TV. All the rooms have good ceiling heights.A big boot room, sunny half-panelled study overlooking the garden and a guest bedroom, with en-suite WC, complete the ground floor line-up. There’s also outline planning for a single-storey 16x16ft extension to the rear of this bedroom, with flexibility for use depending on your requirements (subject to planning).And So To Bed . .On the first floor are a three luxurious country-cottage ensuite bedrooms. The principal bedroom, 16x14ft is simply gorgeous, nestled under the beamed and vaulted eaves and with a stylish en-suite complete with a centrally positioned rolltop bath and walls lined with bespoke wardrobes and cupboards.The second bedroom, 19x16ft is ideal for guests and has its own en-suite shower room.Finally, the third bedroom is accessed by stairs from the boot room and has large built-in wardrobe and access to a bathroom with corner shower and bath tub. A fourth guest bedroom with WC is located on the ground floor.Glorious GardensThe well planned and professionally landscaped gardens are clearly the work of someone with a practised eye, abundant with carefully-designed and planted borders, tubs and raised planters and a blaze of beautiful colour in the spring and summer.Secluded and tranquil, the south-facing terraces outside the kitchen and dining hall enjoy the sun all day long. Designed on two levels the terraces are the perfect place for the family to relax, dine al fresco or entertain guests. It’s a delightful spot for pre- or post-dinner drinks, screened by high pleached hedging and with wide gravelled tiers to add interest.The remainder of the garden is laid to lawn and flower borders, with a shed to tuck away all the gardening paraphernalia.Round And AboutChildrey is quite a rarity for a small village as residents are blessed with all they need for a happy and fulfilled lifestyle directly on their doorstep. It’s a friendly, thriving community with lots going on throughout the year with choir, fitness and wi.Many families choose the village for the highly-regarded primary school, The Ridgeway ce, which is Ofsted-rated ‘good’, and Little Ducks pre-school, while secondary-age children can board a bus to King Alfred’s School in Wantage, just three miles away.

Then look no further, Willowbrook radiates the wow factor from top to toe!No expense or attention to detail has been spared in the design and construction of this unique detached five-bedroom family home in sought-after Frilford, near Abingdon.Taking inspiration from period Elizabethan / Tudor architecture, the extensive triple-gabled property features superb timber panelling, leaded windows and handsome stone arched oak entrance doors.The developer who constructed Willowbrook and two other exclusive properties in this quiet enclave, just nine months ago, has gone to great lengths to perfect the character and authenticity in these individual homes. A particularly impressive feature is the curvaceous exterior red-brick chimney topped with a beautiful decorative stack – which takes its inspiration from one of the famous chimneys at Hampton Court Palace.Occupying 4,722 sq ft of flexible space, super-luxe Willowbrook has excellent eco credentials too, heated throughout by the latest zoned air source heating system from Heliotherm, together with flush-fit solar roof panels.This luxurious residence is quietly situated behind double electric wrought iron gates, complete with ornate willow plaques, amid the countryside at the end of a peaceful private lane and directly next door to the championship courses of Frilford Heath Golf Club – the perfect ‘hole in one’ for keen golfers!Reflecting the period charm of the exterior, inside Willowbrook pays homage to modern design without compromise.

The principal bedroom extends to 36ft and is an elegant and spacious retreat complete with ‘his n hers’ walk-in wardrobes and dressing areas plus a delightful balcony overlooking the decking and fields beyond.

It’s all set up for residential use with a nicely fitted kitchen with quartz stone worktops, integrated fridge, dishwasher and cooking facilities.

Both offer maximum space for family relaxation or for entertaining friends. Who wouldn’t love a dip in that super-sized hot tub? The only sound is bird-song in this private enclave and wildlife, such as deer and an array of birdlife can be spotted in the fields and woodland beyond the garden.A collection of mature trees nestle amidst woodland to the right of the house, while a large expanse of lawn offers space for youngsters to play and kick a ball around.As the house is so new, the gardens are still maturing and there’s plenty of scope for further cultivation as wished.Round And AboutFrilford is the perfect rural idyll, boosted by its proximity to Frilford Heath Golf Club, one of Oxfordshire’s finest with a trio of 18-hole courses to play. It welcomes new members – good news if the new owner of Willowbrook is partial to a round or two.This exclusive neighbourhood revels in its countryside setting but is just a few miles from the shops – including Waitrose and amenities of Abingdon. It’s also within easy striking distance of some of the best independent schools in the country, many in the Abingdon area and a 15-minute drive away in Oxford or there is a convenient bus stop at the Beverley House driveway entrance on Oxford Road.Nearby, Millets Farm is a great place to visit – pick-your-own, farm shop, garden centre, restaurant and café, play barn, falconry, farm animals for the kids to meet, it’s all here.

Fawley Manor is an impressive Jacobean manor house set in an idyllic rural position in the North Wessex Downs’ Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (aonb). The house is of historical interest and has been lovingly restored over the past 40 years. The manor is arranged over four floors around a stunning, original staircase which winds the full length of the house and offers the perfect mix of more formal and casual living areas. On the ground floor of particular note is the Old Hall which is a wonderful period piece room with an impressive 17th Century open fireplace, an original screens passage, oak panelling and large stone mullioned windows looking out across the formal gardens which can be directly accessed via double oak doors. On the floor above, there is an equally impressive reception room known as the Oak Room which is a magnificent oak panelled room approaching 30 feet in length with an open fireplace and commanding high level views over the Downs. The main core of the house is classical Jacobean and extends to approximately 6,000 sq ft. A substantial wing, believed to have been added in the 19th Century, amounts to approximately 4,000 sq ft, and is currently used as separate accommodation. This could be incorporated into the main house if desired.The gardens and grounds at Fawley Manor are mature and have been cleverly designed with the history of the house in mind. There is a focus on strong geometrical topiary and avenues of evergreen trees. Close to the house are formal box parterres, again inspired by the Jacobean period. The house is approached via a sweeping driveway punctuated by mature beech topiary domes, culminating in a charming cobbled courtyard in front of the house. There is an old tennis court, a pond, an old orchard and a cutting garden. Beyond the formal gardens is a strip of woodland covered in snowdrops in the Winter and bluebells in Spring.There is a row of brick and flint outbuildings, of which the Little Barn has plumbing and electricity and could be used as a separate cottage subject to the necessary planning consents. There is also a substantial run of stables which complements the pony paddocks next to the formal gardens.Fawley Manor is situated in an elevated position within the hamlet of South Fawley. The neighbouring village of North Fawley has a beautiful church and an active local community. The larger village of Great Shefford which is also in easy reach, has a village shop with post office and a popular pub. There is a wealth of bridleways and byways for walking, horse riding and cycling across the Downs. The Ridgeway, an ancient track across particularly beautiful and remote high ridges and paths which pass by Age-old forts and barrows with figures of horses cut into chalk, is less than a couple of miles away. The nearby pretty market town of Wantage has a weekly market, regular farmers’ market and a good range of shops including a Waitrose supermarket. There is also a library, museum, cafes and restaurants. Hungerford, another nearby market town noted for its many antique shops, also has a wide choice of excellent facilities. Newbury and Oxford cater for most other shopping and entertainments. Communications in the area are excellent, with a fast train service from Didcot or Newbury into London Paddington, and easy access to the M4 and A34 linking easily to London, Heathrow Airport and the West Country. There is a wide choice of highly regarded schools in the area including Cothill, Pinewood, Bradfield College, Radley College, Abingdon, St Edwards, Marlborough College and Downe House.Fawley Manor has a long and rich history dating back to the reign of King Edward the Confessor in the 11th century and sits on the same site as the previous manor house, South Fawley Manor. South Fawley Manor survived the Norman Conquest in 1066 and remained as a royal manor until 1594 when it was sold to Francis Moore. Moore was the son of a yeoman from East Ilsley who made his fortune as a barrister and was knighted in 1616. He served as mp for Reading in the late 16th and early 17th century. Francis Moore is credited with building the present manor house in 1614 and lived there until his death in 1621. The Moore family were staunch royalists, and following the Battle of Newbury in 1644 during the English Civil Wars, troops of the King’s Life Guards were quartered at the Manor house. In the 19th century the famous novelist Thomas Hardy is said to have visited Fawley Manor which inspired the writing of his novel, Jude the Obscure, and Hardy gave Jude the surname Fawley and the village of North Fawley he called Marygreen.
