Perhaps one of the most recognised properties within the town, a beautiful Grade II listed property enjoying an idyllic setting within the heart of Thame town centre.

The Alms Houses are a remarkable Grade II listed period home originally founded by Lord Williams in 1555 within the grounds of the former Grammar school site, offering beautiful town living with well tended gardens. This iconic property has been lovingly refurbished by the current owners and restored by the reputable historic builder Chris Bowler to provide a stunning and spacious home. Particular mention is made of the many historic features including exposed beams, stain glass windows, original fireplaces and panelling to bathroom wall and dining room reclaimed from RMS Mauritania when decommissioned. Internally this property enjoys two generous reception rooms including a pretty sitting room with timber flooring, exposed beams and a modern wood burning stove and a formal dining room with a lovely exposed fireplace and a wood burning stove. Separating the two reception rooms is a recently re-fitted kitchen, comprising a range of classic shaker style cupboard and drawer units with a Belfast sink and timber working surfaces. Appliances include a Cream fronted cast iron Smeg cooker, a fridge/freezer and washing machine. The first floor offers an elegant landing area with a fabulous panelled wall opening to the bathroom, fitted with a cast iron roll top bath, wash hand basin, recently installed shower and wc. Two bedrooms are connected to one end of the property and a substantial master bedroom extends to an impressive 15’ with a triple aspect, a vaulted ceiling and a lovely outlook overlooking the lower High Street.
Outside, the gardens are located to the front of the property with a private terrace ideal for entertaining. Behind elegant wrought iron gates, a further pedestrian gate also opens into the grounds of the property with direct views of the bandstand and space for garden storage.
