5 bedroom house

Oldstone Place is a stunning 1850s Grade II listed stone barn, the main part first converted in the early 1990s. The current owners, in recent years, have remodelled the original barn, further converted and connected the two side-barns, around a newly created magnificent south facing courtyard, and extended into the loft space. Its style has been developed to suit contemporary luxury living whilst retaining the period charm.
The original slit windows have been retained, lovely internal stone walls, and the central hall has a feature wall of glass to replicate the threshing doors and look out over the back garden and courtyard. The ground floor is practically laid with beautiful natural stone tiles.
The barn provides generous family accommodation with 5 en-suite double bedrooms over three floors, including a magnificent master suite complete with walk-in wardrobe; all the bedrooms and reception rooms have views over the lawned gardens.
A beautiful bespoke oak kitchen/dining room is ideal for modern living, opening out into the courtyard. Along with the double height central hall and drawing room, the ground floor provides excellent entertaining space, allowing flow from the courtyard to the lawned back garden on those summer days.
What previously was a stone open cart shed has now been converted into a modern office/annex. The barn is fully internet enabled with WiFi and hard-wired connection throughout, including for house wide audio entertainment.

Wicken is a conservation village and civil parish in the English county of Northamptonshire. It is about one mile north of the A422 road between Milton Keynes and Buckingham and forms part of West Northamptonshire Unitary Authority. It is a little oasis of calm with its Sports Club, village church and the White Lion public house.

Oldstone Place is approached through a five-bar gate leading onto a gravelled drive with a mixed border of mainly Ceanothus and New Zealand Flax. This then goes through solid double gates and on to a three-bay oak open fronted garage, with ample turning and additional parking space.
The courtyard is beautifully landscaped, edged with scented plants including lavender, and includes a raised feature pond.
The house is backed by wonderfully tended mature gardens which are a real feature of the property. There are large areas of lawn and well stocked beds with numerous plants, shrubs, and herbaceous borders. The garden extends past the pond, a covered eating area, and a wonderful mature Lebanon Cedar tree, stretching around to the left with a large lawn area, an array of deciduous and evergreen trees and bedding running along both sides. At the bottom is access to the open fields. In all the gardens are circa 1 acre.
