This Grade II-listed property dates back to the seventeenth century and was recently lovingly restored. It still feels like a traditional home, with its flagstones and Mullioned windows, but beneath the surface, it has all the modern amenities you need to keep yourself entertained (including Netflix and Amazon Prime). The home has a mature southwest-facing walled garden, where you can unwind with a book under a tree or spend your evenings outside in the hot tub. There’s also a patio and barbecue, which are perfect for alfresco dining in the summer months. The charming town of Burford with its many lovely cafes and independent shops takes just over ten minutes to reach in the car. Even closer to home, there’s a critically-acclaimed gastropub in the local village, less than a hundred metres from the front door.
