Description
Larkstoke Manor is a substantial country house which has recently undergone an extensive refurbishment by the present owners. It offers flexible and stylish family accommodation which has been finished to a very high standard. Built circa 1895 it has painted render elevations under a clay tile roof and sits centrally within its plot enjoying its location surrounded by South Oxfordshire countryside.
The main house has in excess of 7,500 sq ft of spacious accommodation arranged over two floors with high ceilings and large windows enjoying views over the stunning gardens and grounds. There is a feeling of light and space and it is beautifully presented throughout. The kitchen is fitted with a superb range of painted oak cabinetry with appliances by Miele, Siemens, Capel, Quooker and an E-smart electric AGA with warming cupboard. It is open plan to the orangery with doors opening to the garden terrace. Period features have been retained in the main reception rooms with panelling, ceiling plasterwork and the magnificent oak staircase in the reception hall sweeps up to a galleried landing.
To the first floor is the principal bedroom suite which has an en suite bathroom and dressing room. There are five further bedrooms, all with en suite facilities.
