Property Description
Lot 1 - Turweston House
Turweston House dates back to 1732 with a wing added in Victorian times. The house is constructed of Ashlar cut stone and is situated on the edge of the village, adjacent to the church looking out over its own parkland. This quintessential English Country House has outstanding proportioned rooms on the first two floors and an excellent basement that is very much part of the main house. There is a run of rooms on the second floor that still offers scope for expansion if required. The combination of well-proportioned reception rooms, views over its parkland, the lake, secondary house and edge of village setting make this an outstanding country house.
Over the years the house has been improved and updated by the current family including extending the staircase down to the basement and the creation of a conservatory/games/party room which now encases the centre of the house. Internally the house continues to evolve with updated interiors, new bathrooms and a re-fitted kitchen. A lift has been installed from the kitchen to the first floor area where a laundry room can be found. A library has been created as well as a gym and cinema room on the basement level. The house is set up for entertainment with or without the occasional rainy day with ample space both inside and outside.
There are two driveways to Turweston House. The main drive winds through the parkland, over the River Ouse which is really a beautiful, shallow, clear stream, before arriving to the south side of the house. The second driveway is from the main part of the village and comes directly to the north elevation of the house.
Road and rail communications are excellent with easy access to the M40 Junction 10 and M1 via the A43. Trains run from Bicester North and Banbury to London Marylebone, taking approximately 45 and 55 minutes respectively and from Milton Keynes to London Euston, taking approximately 35 minutes.
The village is beside the River Great Ouse, which at this point forms the county boundary with Northamptonshire to the west and Buckinghamshire to the east.
Local shopping and amenities are available in Brackley (1 mile) with supermarkets including Waitrose and Tesco. More comprehensive facilities are found in Bicester, Buckingham, Oxford, Banbury and Milton Keynes.
Schools:
The area is spoilt for schools with Stowe (6 miles), Tudor Hall (12 miles), Bloxham (15 miles), Beachborough (2.5 miles) and Winchester House (1.5 miles), together with all Oxford schools (22 miles).
Sporting opportunities include: Golf courses nearby include Buckingham Golf Club and Whittlebury Park; local horse racing at Towcester and Warwick. Motor racing at Silverstone and hunting with the Bicester with Whaddon Chase and Grafton hunt. Other attractions include Bicester Village and Soho Farmhouse which are all within easy reach. Theatres are in Oxford and Stratford-upon-Avon (rsc).
The gardens and park have been beautifully designed with the River Ouse running through them and leading to an adjacent lake. The walled rose garden incorporates the pool and pool house. The Pool House includes changing rooms and small kitchen, together with an outdoor shower. Adjacent to this is the well screened tennis court and a vegetable garden. A recently built Coach House has a large garage, a workshop and a gardeners’ tool room. There is an abundance of trees set within the gardens and grounds ranging from fruit trees to mature beech trees.
