East Barn, Anson Close, Marcham, Abingdon The Home East Barn offers an impressive balance of character and contemporary design, where every detail has been carefully considered. From the moment you arrive, the stone exterior paired with modern panelling sets the tone, confidently blending authentic heritage with modernity. This converted cowshed dates back to around 1750, and wasn’t upgraded to residential dwelling until late 1980s. At the heart of the home sits the showstopping double aspect kitchen and dining room, fully renovated and finished with Karndean flooring, sleek grey and white cabinetry, contrasting copper finishes and integrated appliances. A double raised oven, spotlights and thoughtful detailing create a space that is both highly functional and visually striking. The kitchen is complemented by a separate utility room, from which Crittall-style doors open directly onto the patio, making everyday living both practical and seamless. The impressive 21-foot double aspect living room is a true standout, featuring a part vaulted and beamed ceiling alongside a large brick fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point. Crittall-style doors from the living room also open onto the patio, allowing natural light to flood the space and enhancing the connection between indoors and out. A separate dining or family room provides further flexibility, ideal for formal dining, a snug or a playroom. A standout feature of this home is the bolted glass balustrade staircase and double height galley landing. This leads to the principal bedroom, which benefits from a stylish en-suite shower room. Four further well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom, all continuing the cohesive and carefully curated design seen throughout. Exposed beams, areas of brickwork and sleek modern doors sit comfortably alongside contemporary finishes, ensuring the character of the barn remains at the forefront. The Garden To the rear, the landscaped south facing garden has been thoughtfully designed with patio and lawn areas, offering an attractive and practical outdoor space. Well screened and enjoying a southerly aspect, it provides good degrees of privacy and is ideal for entertaining and relaxed family time. An undercover hot tub area adds a touch of luxury, while a summerhouse with bi-folding doors offers a versatile space for socialising or simply enjoying the garden throughout the year. Driveway and Parking External parking for up to four cars provides ease when landing home after a busy day. Completing the property is a generous double garage benefiting from electrically operated doors, and lighting internally. The Location Marcham is a well-regarded village situated approximately two miles west of Abingdon, offering a wonderful balance of village life and accessibility. Rich in history, the village features a number of notable period buildings, including The Priory and Hyde Farmhouse, alongside other historic landmarks that reflect Marcham’s long established heritage. The surrounding countryside is shaped by the River Ock and its historic watermill, with the area retaining a strong connection to its rural roots while continuing to evolve as a thriving community. Today, Marcham offers a welcoming village atmosphere with everyday amenities including a village shop and post office, a Church of England primary school, sports clubs, and the recently opened Marcham Centre, providing a village hall, recreational facilities and playing fields. Well positioned for commuters and families alike, the village enjoys convenient access to Abingdon, Oxford and the wider road network, making it an ideal location for those seeking characterful village living without sacrificing connectivity.
