Property Description
Nestled beside the former Victorian village school in the picturesque village of Fringford, this detached stone property dates back to 1866 and is steeped in local history. Formerly the residence of descendants of 'Mad King George's' Physician and later on home to the village school headmaster.
Over the years the current owners have sympathetically extended the property, adding modern conveniences such as double glazing and oil central heating, whilst retaining all the period charm.
The Old School House boasts approximately 1900 sq ft of accommodation and many of the well proportioned rooms are dual aspect. On entering the property the stone porch opens into a spacious dining room which in turn flows into the large kitchen/breakfast room forming the centre of the house. The living room contains a feature cast iron fireplace with multi burner in situ and French doors to the garden. The kitchen also connects to a utility room of considerable size, cloakroom and dual aspect study/craft room which could lend itself to a potential annex. The first floor landing contains a feature porthole window, a family bathroom and four large double bedrooms. Bedroom 1 overlooks the sunny rear garden and has the benefit of an en-suite shower room.
The striking property is approached via a gravel driveway with ample parking for up to four cars. The southerly aspect enclosed rear garden contains a 12' x 12' workshop, lawn to two sides, flower beds, a patio area and a variety of fruit trees including damson, quince, blackberry and apple.
Fringford is a historic village epitomised in Flora Thompson's Lark Rise to Candleford. There is a thriving primary school, church, pub with restaurant, coffee shop and local cricket team. There is also a daily bus service to nearby Bicester (excluding Sundays). Both Bicester train stations and Junctions 9 and 10 of the M40 are all within easy access.
