Why we love it Funky barn conversion with sophisticated interiors in idyllic rural setting. Impresive use of space to create light modern living areas. Lively local community so no chance of getting bored. Easy access to Oxford, London and the Midlands.
Where it is The Forge is in Falcutt, which is 4 miles from Brackley, 12 miles from Banbury, 27 miles from Oxford, 18 miles from Bicester and 20 miles from Northampton. Perfectly situated for the M40 and the M1 and there is a regular train service that will take into the City in just over an hour from Banbury. If you are looking for a truly beautiful place to live then look no further, The Forge is in a wonderfully rural setting, yet you have neighbours, so the perfect combination, if hubby is away a lot then you will be fine and if this is your time to spend your children's inheritance and travel then it is the ideal lock up and leave location. Falcutt is within reasonable walking distance of Helmdon so for the community aspect of life you will join in with them. There is plenty to get involved with - the usual village activities, this year is the 25th anniversary of the village Carnival, womens institute, bridge and toddlers groups. However the group that intrigued me the most is the Young Husbands Organisation - a self confessed jolly that gives the opportunity to pop to the pub for a pint - will definitely keep quite to my husband in case he has any ideas to copy - well done boys. The village has a magnificent communal hall called the Reading Room - just the thought of a village event or birthday party here evokes happy childhood memories. Brackley is a short distance away and has a good range of local shopping, there is a Farmers market, a newly refurbished leisure centre and good schools. Winchester House has an enviable reputation and a happy feel. What it's got Imagine driving up a tree lined avenue with sheep lazily grazing to either side and then arriving at home, it could be straight from a page in The Mayor of Casterbridge. Travel across the cattle grid and to this select development of 3 barn conversion. Tastefully converted 7 years ago the site is now established and settled so this is your chance to buy into a new product that has had time to mature. Walk through the door and turn left into a boot room, laundry and shower room all in one. There are two bedrooms, one up a small flight of stairs and one down, both rooms and roomy and would make ideal home working areas. The kitchen is vaulted and farmhouse style, the mix works well creating a contemporary space with the traditional feel of a kitchen, the hub of which is an AGA - perfect for those chilled bottoms after a winters walk in the rain. The sitting room and dining room are open to each other with a vast double sided woodburner - no excuse for not using all the space. There is a large guest room with ensuite shower room. The Master suite has to be seen to be believed - the bathroom is on the ground level, has doors onto the garden, a Victorian roll top bath and shower room with steam facility. The bedroom is on the first floor and comfortably houses the largest bed I have ever seen. The gardens are simple but beautiful - surrounded by open country who needs lots of colour, less really is more here. There are 2 garages and a workshop.
