East of the Cotswolds in the village of Eynsham, this eye-catching home is defined by its confident design choices. With a library so tall you'll need a ladder to reach the upper shelves, the double height living area stands out, as does the expansive kitchen with its turquoise walls and wood-topped island. The four bedrooms are perfectly comfy, though only two offer a king size bed, while there's a range of amenities across the two bathrooms and WC including a striking roll top bathtub. You'll also have access to the pleasant green garden, though we'd advise caution with some of the steeper banks. Eynsham is home to several charming pubs and shops, with Oxford and Burford both in easy reach.
