Property Description

Bletchington Park Stables is a glorious setting on the edge of this pretty village, next to the church and approached over a long tree lined drive bordered by open fields. The buildings were originally constructed in 1782 to a design of the noted architect James Lewis in the Georgian style. The stables were part of The Bletchingdon Park Estate and back onto the parkland of the principal Palladian Mansion. The buildings were restored and converted in 1991/92 with much care and attention. The work on number 6 was carried out by well-known builders Symm under the careful eye of the current owners. The layout can be seen from the floorplans and the house enjoys the attributes synonymous with the period such as lovely high ceilings and sash windows. The property is well presented throughout.
