As seen in Country Life... Country living with city style.
Every week, one of the beautiful homes we are currently marketing is selected to feature in the prestigious magazine, Country Life. This week, the featured property is a beautiful barn conversion that has been transformed by a talented architect to make it a stylish and contemporary family home. The finish and design is impeccable throughout, making it an ideal and stylish home for those relocating from the city or those looking for the perfect mix of rural and modern living. A perfect blend of old and new, the modern interiors sit comfortable next to the beams from the original barn, which dates back to the 18th century. The property itself is in Boarstall, Buckinghamshire and has four bedrooms, including a beautiful master suite, three reception rooms and a very large kitchen. Throughout the home there are huge floor to ceiling windows, giving amazing panoramic views of the garden and countryside. So even if the weather means you can’t go out to enjoy the 3/4 of an acre of land or thelovely courtyard garden, you’ll still be able to make the most of being in this stunning part of the country. As Glyn Buckley, Manager of Winkworth Oxford says, “This is a perfect conversion of former farm buildings around a private landscaped courtyard that has bags of character and style along with elegant, modern design. You can’t help but love the way the property draws your eye across the undulating views of the Buckinghamshire countryside.’ Boarstall itself, is on the borders of Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire. It’s famous for its tower, a Grade I listed 14th Century moated gatehouse, built by John de Haudlo and once part of a fortified manor house. There is also a 17th Century duck decoy which is still in working order and one of only four left in the country, both owned by the National Trust. The village itself has a thriving community with an annual steam rally and village fête in June. Close by is Magnolia Park Golf and Country Club and the nearby hilltop village of Brill has two shops, one of which is also a post office, a doctors surgery, primary school, two public houses and of course its famous windmill. A wider range of amenities including supermarkets, sporting facilities, banks, shops and restaurants can be found in the market towns of either Thame or Bicester, with Bicester Village retail outlet and Oxford offering even further shopping and cultural opportunities. Transport links are excellent too. For the commuter, rail services from Bicester North, Bicester Town and Haddenham and Thame Parkway stations go into London Marylebone from 35 minutes and north toBirmingham Snow Hill. By car, junctions 7 & 8 of the M40 lead towards LondonHeathrow and the Midlands airports. The A34 (approx. 10 miles away) leads to the M4 and the south.

If you would like to find out how your property could potentially feature in Country Life magazine, contact your nearest office, who will be able to give you all the details about the advertising we can do if we market your property.
