For Sale9 Bedroom Detached House in Old London Road, Ewelme, Wallingford, Oxfordshire, OX10£6,000,000

A beautifully upgraded Grade II Regency manor house. Troy is a Grade II Listed Regency former farmhouse of traditionally symmetrical Georgian construction with a handsome facade of local blue glazed bricks, with red brick reveal. To the front of the house there are four Georgian windows with a central venetian arched window, domed roof porch and venetian entrance door. It is understood that around 1926 the house was adjoined to the nextdoor cottages and barns, to create the west wing and courtyard. The house is hidden, down a gravel drive accessed through pyramid-mounted brick gate pillars and iron gates. The drive sweeps around, flanked by pretty and mature crab apple and walnut trees, to the gravel forecourt in front of the house. The recently restored and now upgraded house, including a new kitchen, boot room, laundry room and butler’s pantry has the perfect combination of grand entertaining spaces and less formal family accommodation. Arranged over three floors, with the ground floor divided from the upper ground level in the main house to a lower ground level in the west wing, there are high ceilings and large windows, along with elegant panelling, and parquet flooring throughout most of the rooms as well as open fireplaces. Within the west wing, with its own access is the self-contained one bedroom apartment. Remarkably, the house had remained in the possession of the same family for two generations until 2018. The current owners have since fully restored the property in a sensitive manner, restoring original features throughout, as well as adding modern systems and design, by Alex Cochrane Architects, including a beautiful Plain English kitchen, laundry room and boot room. They have also transformed the gardens and grounds with the help of the award-winning garden designer Todd Longstaffe Gowan. The layout of the accommodation can be found on the enclosed floorplans.
