Savills is selling what it believes to be the only two large country houses in Oxfordshire which are completely surrounded by a moat.
Gaunt House, above, which is on the market at £4.75m, is within walking distance of Standlake, near Witney.
Although a medieval hall is believed to have occupied the site from 1230, the present house was probably built around 1465.
Dr Samuel Fell, the dean of Christ Church. Oxford, rebuilt the house in a Stuart architectural style in the early 17th century.
The present owners have extensively restored and renovated the property, which hass three reception rooms, kitchen, breakfast room and six bedrooms.
Meanwhile, at Tetsworth, near Thame, Copcourt Manor, a Georgian property, offers light and airy rooms which have recently been refurbished to a high standard.
There are four reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast room and office; plus five bedrooms and a self-contained one-bedroom apartment.
It also has a stable yard, menage, garaging, gym, tennis court and extensive gardens.
Copcourt Manor is on the market at a guide price of £3.5m.
