Seller Insight We had been struggling to find something that met our requirements but luckily, through word of mouth, we heard about Lower Brook House and as soon as we walked in, we knew it was perfect for us,”

say the vendors.

“Lower Brook House is full of character and modern facilities, including the beautiful brick fireplace and exposed beams. The utility room has been very useful as we have had horses and dogs, whilst the en suite is perfect for visiting guests. We rarely used the separate dining room, so we knocked through from the kitchen to create one large, L shaped kitchen dining area which has been fabulous. It allows us to cook and entertain guests in the same area, so no one is missing out on the laughter, conversation and atmosphere. Doors lead out to the patio and undercover terrace area which is ideal for parties and BBQs.”

“We enjoy being tucked away on the outskirts of Upper Brailes, yet we are surrounded by lots of lovely villages with some brilliant pubs. Banbury, Stowe on the Wold and Stratford are easily accessible, offering a wide choice of restaurants, bars, shops, theatres and picture houses.”

“We both embrace the outdoor lifestyle and have made full use of the beautiful local walks with our dogs over the years. The country roads and bridleways are safe for horse riding and we have joined the Brailes Cycling Club which meets up on a Friday morning.”

“The garden is not overlooked and, with nothing but the donkey field behind us, it’s always very quiet and peaceful. We enjoy relaxing with a good book on the patio on a sunny day and there is always somewhere to sit either in full sunshine or shade.”

“Our favourite room is the lounge is cool in the summer, yet cosy in the winter when we light the log fire.”

“There are lots of things to do in the local area which is ideal when we have guests to stay, yet we also enjoy living in peace and tranquillity where we can indulge in our love of the outdoors.”

“We’ve hosted lots of parties and spontaneous BBQs but perhaps one of our fondest memories was an evening spent with friends in the kitchen dining area where we had a quiz night and curry competition.”

“We’ll miss the house and the friends that we have made here. We’ve decided that the time is right to downsize but the hardest part will be finding somewhere similar to what we have enjoyed here, yet on a smaller scale.”*

The breakfast kitchen / family room is the real hub of the home with the kitchen area having ample work surfaces and a range of integrated appliances to include a dishwasher, fridge/freezer, wine cooler, wine rack and Rangemaster oven. There are two windows to the front and a central island. The dining area is spacious and would house a table to easily accommodate ten guests with windows to the side and rear also providing a good degree of natural light. From the kitchen area, there is access to a utility room which has a window to the rear and a stable door opening out to the side of the property.


Another excellent room is the sitting room which again is very spacious and has a lovely feel to it. There are exposed beams, an open fire with a large feature brick fireplace surrounding it and a window to the front. From the sitting room, there are two further rooms which are very flexible. One is used as a study which has a window to the rear and one is currently a garden which has a window to the rear elevation and French doors opening out to a lovely sun terrace.



The guest bedroom has a window to the rear and also affords lovely countryside views.


Two further bedrooms can be found on the first floor, both having windows to the front, whilst completing the first floor is the family bathroom with an over bath shower and glass screen with a window to the rear.



The property also benefits from a wonderful low maintenance rear garden which enjoys a good degree of privacy. There are well kept flower borders, a lovely aspect over fields to the rear and a sun terrace, perfect for al fresco dining. There is a garage too which has an up and over door and a door to the garden with parking for two cars infront.


The superb master bedroom has built in wardrobes, French doors opening out to a balcony which enjoys beautiful views, whilst a door leads to the en suite shower room which has a window to the rear.
