HouseAlvescot (United Kingdom)

Originally dating back to 17th century with 18th century additions, the current owners have extended and enhanced this property to create a truly stunning and unique family home that is both stylish and practical yet full of history and magic.
Park House has retained all the character and grandeur of its period but now boasts an impressive and versatile layout to suit a large family, with beautifully stylish décor throughout, modern comforts and some very special moments.
At over 5,700 sq. ft spread over three floors, the layout is interesting and fun but flows perfectly, and is ideal for a large family and those who like to entertain, with a separate wing which could be used for guests, older children, and multi-generational living.
This six bedroom, six reception room house will both charm and surprise you from the minute you walk in, with plenty of versatile space for spending time as a family, entertaining guests and working from home, as well as stunning original features and nods to its past. There are large formal rooms to gather as well as smaller, quieter corners to retreat to, a super kitchen, and a beautiful orangery overlooking the lawn.
Park House is set behind electric gates with a large driveway and double garage and the private walled gardens surrounding the property are an absolute delight. There is a large traditional lawn area for little ones and four legged friends to run around, and a special mention has to go to the dedicated entertaining courtyard, which really does have the wow factor.
This truly is an exquisite property, offering the perfect combination of period charm and modern luxury and, despite its grand proportions, it has a real warmth to it.
Alvescot is a picture-perfect Cotswold village with a great pub, primary school and sense of community. It is a rural village surrounded by glorious countryside but just 3 miles from Bampton, 7 miles from Burford and 8 miles from Witney, all with a wide range of amenities and some great school options.
