It’s not simply a renovation; it’s a transformation. Have you been dreaming of finding somewhere you can truly make your own? A chance to dream boldly, to create something deeply personal and to shape a space that reflects the past and your vision of the future. Here, creativity becomes your greatest tool and every choice becomes part of a new chapter.
In the picturesque rural village of Oxton stands a house that feels like a forgotten story waiting to be told again. Time has softened its edges, it’s paint has faded and the walls wear their years openly but beneath it lies something else: character, history and a magic waiting to be rediscovered.
This is a home that asks you to see not what it is, but what it could be. Sitting in a beautiful South facing plot, surrounded by rolling open countryside you can imagine evenings on the sun drenched patio and family gatherings on the lawn with laughter drifting over the fields, memories being made.
Full of potential and possibility: the generous downstairs layout gives you plenty of freedom to reshape the space to suit your lifestyle with the garage, car port and barn store adding even more flexibility. Upstairs, there are currently three bedrooms and a bathroom, with scope to extend to the side (subject to planning) if you’d like to create additional space.
But this is not a house for the faint-hearted; it asks for imagination and courage however for those who see beauty in imperfection, who feel inspired by the idea of bringing something old back to life, this house offers more than bricks and mortar. It offers a place where history and possibility meet, and where your vision can finally come to life.
