Your attention is drawn to the Important Notice on the last page of the text SITUATION Tinkers Barn is situated just outside the village of Chacombe, at the end of a gravel drive in open countryside on the borders of North Oxfordshire and South Northamptonshire. Local village amenities include primary school, public house with restaurant and a parish church. The nearby market town of Banbury provides further specialist requirements. Nearby preparatory schools are at Cardus (Overthorpe), St John’s Priory (Banbury), Beachborough (Westbury) and Winchester House (Brackley). The local secondary schools can be found at Chenderit (Middleton Cheney), with Stowe, Bloxham and Tudor Hall public schools also not far away. The village is extremely well placed for travel, being approximately 2 miles from junction 11 of the M40 motorway, and with a railway station at Banbury providing local train services to London (Marylebone peak time from 52 minutes). Sporting activities in the area include a golf course on the outskirts of the village (Cherwell Edge), racing at Stratford- upon-Avon and Warwick and an indoor leisure complex with swimming pool at Banbury.

DESCRIPTION Tinkers Barn is a detached Hornton stone barn conversion situated in a secluded rural setting with far-reaching views. The property can be found down a private tree lined gravel driveway, and is entered through an automatic gate. Original stones from the barn lead up to the front glass entrance room, perfect for storing boots and coats. The entrance porch provides access into a beautifully presented modern kitchen with integrated combined oven/steamer, coffee machine, microwave, oven and dishwasher. The island unit has five ring hob and sink, provides additional storage, and is the perfect spot for informal dining. An integrated gas fire at the far end of the room creates a centre point for a light and airy seating area. East facing bifold doors lead out onto the gardens and patio, capturing the morning sun. The bifold doors continue throughout the ground floor creating light and airy rooms, and additionally there is underfloor heating and Russ surround sound throughout. Steps lead down to the dining room, with built in shelving, drop lighting, and ample space for table and chairs. Floor lights line the hallway to the second and third bedrooms on the ground floor, both with plentiful space for a double bed. Bedroom three is currently used as a study/office space, again with bifold doors out to the patio. Contemporary guest bathroom adjacent to the second bedroom provides shower and WC. There is a separate utility room with space for washing machine and tumble drier. Units on both sides of the room provide excellent storage space. The stairway from the kitchen leads up to a second floor landing with built in storage and wardrobes, ideal for use as a dressing area. Through the door is the master bedroom suite with wooden flooring, vaulted ceiling, and windows providing countryside views on both sides. En suite bathroom offers stand alone bath, walk in shower, and double sink with storage either side.

OUTSIDE The gardens are laid to lawn and surround the property. The garden to the east of the property has steps down to the stone tiled patio, with external surround sound system, lighting and ample space for seating and dining; perfect for entertaining. Risen boxes and beds are filled with a mixture of shrubs, which separate the patio from the lawn area. Garden shed for storage. Beyond the gardens, at both the front and back of the property, is paddock grazing with post and rail fencing and hedge boundaries, interspersed with a variety of trees.
