Springwell House is a handsome, detached family home situated on the northern edge of Weston-on-the-Green, a popular village notable for its close proximity to excellent transport links including the A34 and the M40. The original part of the house dates back to the 1800s, with later extensions in the 1980s and again in 2017 when a kitchen extension was added to the rear. The family home is beautifully appointed, with a high standard of internal décor. The interiors have been thoughtfully considered to complement both the characterful older parts of the home as well as the newer additions: there are exposed beams and a wood-burning stove, stone walls and cottage windows in the older part, while the high ceilings and airy rooms sizes of the new extension are enhanced by a SieMatic kitchen with breakfast bar, soft-close cabinetry and a variety of integrated Siemens appliances.

The bathrooms are also contemporary and stylish, while the colour palette throughout features soothing, neutral tones that give a nod to the rural setting. Further modern conveniences include underfloor heating and an alarm system.

The house's accommodation is arranged over two floors and is generously proportioned throughout, with more than 2300 sq ft of space. The ground floor entrance hall has a useful cloakroom with w.c. and further leads to the triple aspect sitting room, a separate snug, the stunning open plan kitchen and dining room with bifold doors opening to the garden, and a utility/boot room. Upstairs there are four good-size double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en suite bath/shower room and dressing room, and a family bathroom. The fifth bedroom is situated in a detached bothy and has an en suite shower room, making it the ideal space for guests or for conversion to a gym or home office/studio space.

Outside

The house is situated on a quiet no-through road, with well secluded gardens that offer a wealth of space. The approach is via a gravel driveway which sweeps up to the house, providing ample off-street parking in addition to access to the double garage. The second outbuilding is the bothy, currently used as a bedroom. Most of the outside space is situated to the rear of the house and is a large and well enclosed lawned garden, featuring a generous patio terrace at the back of the house ideal for outdoor entertaining, a variety of flowerbeds and well-stocked borders and high hedges around the boundary. The gardens back onto open countryside over which there are lovely far-reaching views.
