This is a truly unique property, offering a range of exceptional features that combine to create a home that can be enjoyed like few others on the market now.

Located in the sought after hamlet of Boars Hill and amongst many other exclusive properties, Red Copse is only 3.5 miles drive from Oxford city centre and railway station. Many desireable schools are within reach. Boars Hill itself is a beautiful area of fields and walks with lovely views over the dreaming spires of Oxford.

Red Copse has been extended and developed by the current owners to create an impressive property bursting with eye-catching features using the finest materials and contemporay design elements.

The heart of the home is a sizeable open-plan living space incorporating the kitchen, family room and dining area. These rooms open on to the patio and upper lawn, as well as to the swimming pool. This fantastic space is enclosed by glass and slate walls and is centred around a pool that is revealed by lowering the tiled floor through the water. When the floor is raised, it makes for an ideal games room. This part of the house also includes a gym, a second kitchen, two shower rooms, a cellar and the plant room. The original part of the house retains the entrance hallway, two separate receptions and a W.C.

The first floor of the original house contains four double bedrooms (one en-suite) and the family bathroom. A small glass gallery walkway takes you into the hugely impressive master bedroom suite. This benefits from high valuted beamed ceilings, twin walk-through dressing rooms, a luxurious en-suite, and a balcony.

The second floor contains two further bedrooms, media room and two showers, plus great views.

The rear garden has two lawns, plus pond, patios, playground and sheds. To the front is a stone-chipped driveway for several cars, a garage and utility room.
