This Grade II-listed vicarage has six bedrooms and 2.4 acres — but it's the grace and charm of the place rather than the space and facilities which will win you over.

Chipping Norton — £4.25 million
We don't often use a garden image ahead of a picture of the actual house. For obvious reasons, we make no apology for doing so in the case of Finstock, near Chipping Norton.

For sale with Strutt & Parker. See more pictures and details for this property.

'It takes quite a lot to make me stop and say wow,' writes James Fisher in his piece on Middleton Park in Oxfordshire, 'but every once in a while there is a home that achieves the feat.'
