5 bedroom house

An attractive Grade II listed Georgian house of approximately 2,600 sq ft, situated in the centre of Brill, a highly popular village on the Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire borders. The house is believed to date back to the latter part of the 18th century, and has many fine period features, most notable of which include an elegant external front door surround, original flagstone flooring, inglenook fireplace and exposed wooden beams.

The house has been modernised and extended to create a charming home with a tremendously spacious and welcoming feel, featuring a dual aspect entrance and dining area which leads through to the kitchen and two sitting rooms.There is a ground floor shower and cloakroom and a basement cellar. The first floor comprises five bedrooms, an en suite shower room and a family bathroom.

The beautiful walled gardens to the rear have been thoughtfully designed and well-tended. The gardens are mostly laid to lawn, with a sunken paved dining area beside the house, which enjoys all day and evening sun. There are mature trees and shrubs throughout the garden, making it a very private space. The garden features a versatile high-quality garden studio with power, fridge, water and electric heating, offering a comfortable space all year round. To the front, there is off street parking and a detached garage to the left of the house, unique given Exchange House's position in the village. There is also an integral garage to the right of the property. Both benefit from a power supply.
