Willow Court Lane, Moulsford, OX10

DESCRIPTION:

A truly individual property, designed and extended in recent years by the current owner to maximise its position adjacent to open countryside. The property is contemporary in finish but designed externally to mimic the nearby farm buildings with timber cladding. With fully open plan accommodation, including vaulted ceilings with exposed wooden rafters, the property is also fitted with multiple sets of fold and slide doors with low solar gain glass, light diffusing and black out double roller blinds. All doors and windows throughout are fold and slide, allowing one to feel fully integrated with the dramatic landscape when indoors, providing for a real connection with the surrounding natural world. The contemporary design is also energy efficient and economical, especially in conjunction with the high output wood burning stove. The immaculately presented accommodation includes: open plan kitchen/diner/living room, utility, main bedroom with en-suite, two further double bedrooms, shower room, and garage/ workshop. EPC Rating C.
