Swinbrook Place, Burford, Oxfordshire

Situated in the heart of Swinbrook, Swinbrook Place is an outstanding completely remodelled and recently renovated Tudor-style home, nestled and surrounded by its extensive gardens.

The attention to detail throughout is as you would expect of a house of this stature. From the wooden panelling in the main hall, to the numerous log burners, no expense has been spared to create this warm and welcoming home.

Swinbrook Place retains many period features such as the attractive cast-iron lattice windows, open fireplaces, high ceilings and exposed beams and was formerly two cottages which have been transformed into one single two-storey cottage

Downstairs there are two main reception rooms, one of which has a full-size snooker table, and the other is split into two with a log burner facing each side. In the centre of the house, is the media room with a large open fireplace with two staircases on either side.

The handmade Kitchen has an abundance of natural light and is finished with a granite worktop and comes with a modern three-oven Aga and built-in Gaggenau appliances.

Upstairs there are three double bedrooms and one twin room, all of which have their own en-suites with roll-top baths and separate walk-in showers and log burners. There is also a further shower room for the twin room.

Outside, the beautiful gardens are laid out on three lawned terraces, a mature orchard with garden paths leading to a “summer house” by the ford and a weeping-willow walk. There is also a large patio for al fresco dining. The gardens will be fully maintained by the landlord and the well-stocked flower beds give an all-year-round display, along with shrubbery and beautiful mature trees, with Cotswold dry-stone walls marking the boundaries. Two painted picket gates lead out onto the village lane. The “summer house” has been converted into a stunning one-bedroom en-suite annexe. There is also a separate study at the front of the house.
