Description
1st time to the market since 1923. An iconic village house enjoying an idyllic location overlooking the village green. The house was originally two properties with the original forge building adjacent and various ancillary outbuildings providing excellent potential for conversion to further accommodation, providing flexible living with the forge building if so desired subject to the usual consents.
The main house offers excellent potential for improvement and enlargement with many period features throughout. The property is offered for sale with 3 principle bedrooms to the 1st floor and two reception rooms to the ground floor. As well as a family bathroom to the 1st floor, and private back garden. The outbuildings consist of the forge building with the original bellows and furnace from the working forge adjacent to the stable. Further outbuildings include a store and workshop to the western boundary. Within the curtilage there is also an old cow shed, (milking parlour) which we believe in the late1940s and for the next 40 years the cows were milked in the Forge buildings, the milk bottled and then delivered throughout the village by the Kirtland family who lived at the Forge for 3 generations, there is a wooden double garage and further store with parking for a number of vehicles.
Offered to the market with no onward chain - Kirtlington is a highly sought after village, due to its attractive location and village feel. The village is approximately 8 miles from Oxford, and offers easy access to the A34 and the M40 motorway which is approximately 8 miles away. A further attraction is Kirtlington Park an 18th-century Palladian country house about half a mile east of Kirtlington village.
