Set in grounds of four acres, a Victorian house could make an ideal base for someone who works from home.

Wincote, in Steeple Aston, has a free-standing timber building with power and light in the garden that could be used as an office or study.

Clare Poil, of agents Finders Keepers, said: “The free-standing office is ideal for those who want peace and quiet to work or study.

“It would also make a great playroom for children or a den for teenagers who want their own space away from the main house.”

The detached stone house, which was built in 1840, includes a kitchen/dining room, a drawing room and a study.

Upstairs are four bedrooms, including the master with its own ensuite plus two other bathrooms.

The grounds include a tennis court, patio and a number of outbuildings. A garden maintenance service is included in the £2,350 per month rental fee.

Ms Poil added: “It is a very attractive period house that is tucked away in a secluded position offering plenty of privacy. It is reached via a long driveway where there is lots of off-road parking and the gardens have views over the surrounding countryside.

“The village of Steeple Aston is always popular because it is picturesque and there is lots going on there, including a shop and a couple of pubs. It is also within easy reach of Bicester, Oxford and London.”

Wincote is available to rent, unfurnished, from mid-January.
