Maison, Cabane en If, Tour Sibford, Nr Banbury, Oxfordshire

Yew Tree House is a Grade II listed village house which has been sympathetically updated by the current owners, whilst retaining a wealth of original features throughout including fireplaces, shutters, exposed stone, window seats, oak and elm flooring and flagstone flooring. The property also benefits from having beautiful sash windows and high ceilings, typical of the period.

Ground floor
• The kitchen/dining room is the heart of the property with a Hunt bespoke kitchen, quartz work surfaces, large island with built-in sink and breakfast bar, pantry cupboard, various integrated appliances and a range cooker. The dining area has a feature stone wall, skylight and bi-folding doors to a courtyard area and garden beyond.
• A welcoming snug adjoins the kitchen/dining room with original elm flooring, fireplace housing a wood burning stove and window seats.
• The entrance hall has flagstone flooring and leads through to the drawing room with panelling, fireplace housing a wood burning stove and access to the cellar. Further ground floor accommodation includes a useful study overlooking the front garden, boot room with access to the garden and built-in storage and a shower room with underfloor heating.

First floor
• Stairs rise from the entrance hall to the first floor, where the principal bedroom enjoys far-reaching countryside views and benefits from a dressing room and en suite bathroom. A guest bedroom with built-in wardrobes and the family bathroom complete the first-floor accommodation.
• Two further double bedrooms and a WC are located on the second floor.

Gardens and grounds
• The gardens and grounds are a particular feature of Yew Tree House, providing a private and established setting.
• The property is approached through a wrought iron gate into the front garden, which is mainly laid to lawn with mature planting and a pathway leading to the front door via circular stone steps. A paved courtyard sits outside the kitchen/dining room, with an archway opening through to the rear garden.
• The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by mature trees, shrubs and well-stocked beds. A veranda runs along the rear elevation of the house, whilst a paved terrace provides an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. Further features include a vegetable garden with raised beds, a greenhouse, stone garden outbuilding and boiler house. Of particular note is the original dovecote, believed to date from around 1728, displaying a coat of arms above the entrance.
• Opposite the property is a detached double garage with electric door together with off-road parking for several vehicles.

Situation
Sibford Gower is a highly sought-after edge of Cotswold-stone village on the North Oxfordshire and Warwickshire border.

Positioned between Banbury and Chipping Norton, the village offers a perfect balance of country living with easy access to mainline rail links, shopping, leisure activities and nearby attractions like Soho Farmhouse. The active community shares excellent amenities with its twin village, Sibford Ferris, including a very well-regarded Doctors’ surgery, village shop with post office, village hall and local pub The Wykham Arms.

Families are strongly drawn to the area by its exceptional educational options. Located directly within the villages are the historic Sibford Gower Endowed Primary School which features nursery provision and the co-educational independent Sibford School. The area is exceptionally well-served by private schools, including Bloxham School (a co-ed 11–18 senior school with flexible boarding), Tudor Hall School (an all-girls boarding and day senior school).
