Appleford Meadows offers a functional family home in the rarest of settings in South Oxfordshire. The ground floor of the building flows well with four good reception rooms including the sun bathed garden room, which opens on to a private terrace and overlooks the property's extensive gardens. A rare find in such a strategically beneficial village location, given the village Station providing access to Oxford and London Paddington.

The property has at its heart a fully integrated kitchen, which links to the garden room to create a highly useable and ever popular social family space, together with the separate snug'. A dual aspect sitting room with open fire place and dining room both offer far reaching views across the extensive, private gardens. On the first floor there are 5 bedrooms, featuring a Master Bedroom suite with en-suite facilities and a further principal bathroom serving the remaining sleeping quarters. There are views from the bedrooms over the property's grounds and down to The Thames.

Appleford Meadows is one of those exquisite rarities that not only has extensive, private grounds of approximately 3.5 acres, but the property also has private mooring over c. 20 metres of River Thames frontage, together with private slipway. In recent years a landing stage has been built by the owners on the property's river bank to facilitate boat mooring and to allow for greater use of the river as an amenity. Also set within the beautifully manicured grounds is a hard court tennis court, orchard, gated paddock land of just over 3 acres, ideal for horses, a large working part-walled vegetable garden and boat store, which could be easily transformed into stabling. The house is accessed via electric gates and a driveway providing parking for at least four cars, leads to a triple garage, linked to the main house for the ultimate convenience. Few houses in South Oxfordshire offer this tranquil setting and opportunity.
