Set on the edge of Wootton Village, this family home will appeal to those seeking a rural lifestyle while remaining in proximity to national commuter routes by rail or road. The village has a community shop and pub; and Woodstock is just 3 miles away, with Oxford in reach at 11 miles.
Rectory House was commissioned by Reverand Struan Robertson for the Church in 1954 to serve as a place of residence for the clergy before becoming a private family home decades later. The design language of this mid-century property owes credit to F. R. S. Yorke, a pioneering British modernist architect. Yorke's work bridged European modernism and British post-war reconstruction. His designs, including Rectory House, contributed to the evolution of modernist architecture in England.
Nestled on a near 0.9 acre plot, the main house provides four bedrooms upstairs, one with a shower room en suite, a main bathroom plus a separate shower room and WC. On the ground floor, the entrance leads into a boot room and hallway where the staircase and WC are found. There are three reception rooms, a kitchen-dining area, utility room/workshop and a conservatory with access to a sheltered patio that spans the length of the gable end. The self-contained annexe was created from the existing garage plus an extension in 1998, that was further extended in 2020, and now features a downstairs bedroom, bathroom and open-plan kitchen-dining room, plus a useful attic room. The property will need modernising and there may be scope for further development (subject to planning).
The property boundary is lined with mature trees and wild shrub, providing privacy and a benefit to local wildlife. A small clearing on the Northwest border creates unobstructed countryside views, and more than half of the grounds feature a delightful pocket spinney with a pond at its basin and a zipline, roughly 30m in length, flying over it.

Stamp duty calculator provided by The Property Hive is intended to provide an estimate of the stamp duty land tax payable on a residential property purchase in England or Northern Ireland. However, the calculator is provided for general information purposes only and should not be relied upon as a substitute for professional legal or tax advice. The actual amount of stamp duty payable may differ from the estimate provided by the calculator, depending on various factors such as the purchase price, the property type, and the buyer's circumstances. Property Hive does not accept any liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of, or reliance upon, the stamp duty calculator. It is recommended that you seek independent legal and tax advice before making any property purchase decisions.
Regulations require that we undertake identity and AML checks, and secure information on the circumstances of your purchase in line with our obligations to verify your identity and complete Customer Due diligence as part of you agreeing any offer with our client. These are dictated by regulation and enforced by trading standards. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks are carried out correctly and for ongoing monitoring, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or made an offer on a property you wish to buy that is provisionally agreeable to our client.
We have looked to provide benefits alongside undertaking these checks to ensure this is not an additional cost to you. These include complementary Lifetime Legal membership for 3 months, and where you use Chancellors Conveyancing services we have also arranged for this cost to include the AML/ Customer due diligence cost your solicitor would normally charge you for their regulated required checks. The cost of these checks is £80 plus VAT (£96 inc VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee is paid in advance, directly to Lifetime Legal and is non-refundable.
