The Old School, a unique and beautifully refurbished property sits in the heart of Finstock. Originally built in 1840 as a chapel and later transformed into Wesleyan School in 1902, this historic building has been thoughtfully updated by its current owners to blend period features with modern comforts.
A pathway leads to an open porch to step inside a light and spacious entrance hall, complete with a utility room, good amount of hanging space, and a separate WC. The heart of the home, the recently refurbished kitchen, is a bright and airy space thanks to its large windows and light cork flooring. It features a newly installed oven, gas hob, integrated wine fridge and dishwasher, boil tap and space for a large fridge/freezer. The kitchen is also equipped with a breakfast bar and coffee station, all illuminated by low energy lighting, making it perfect for both everyday living and entertaining.
The open plan living and dining area is a lovely space, flooded with natural light from its large original windows. The open fireplace and exposed Cotswold stone walls add a touch of traditional charm, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. A wooden staircase leads to the first floor, where there are three double bedrooms, each with character features and good natural light. The family bathroom with a roll top bath, provides comfort and style for modern living. Additionally, the property benefits from a spacious loft, offering excellent storage or potential for further development subject to planning permission.
A short 100-meter walk from the house leads you to a private garden. Although detached from the house, this outdoor space offers stunning views over the Oxfordshire countryside and includes planning permission for an off-grid cabin. Ideal for an Airbnb venture or private retreat, this garden is a perfect place for relaxation and enjoyment. Contact the agent for more information.
