Whittington House dates from the mid 18th Century with later 19th century additions. The property has recently undergone
significant modernisation with new bathrooms,
flooring, heating system and electrics yet has
retained many traditional features including
flagstone floors, bay windows, exposed beams,
open fireplaces including an inglenook. The
accommodation is arranged over three floors
and comprises four reception rooms on the
ground floor and a well-equipped, vaulted
kitchen/breakfast room with central island
unit and French doors into the garden. Next to
the kitchen is the useful utility room. From the
drawing room, stairs rise to the first floor where
there is the principal bedroom suite with walk-in
wardrobe, en-suite bathroom and wet room.
There are 2 further bedrooms on the first floor, a
bathroom and a family shower room. Bedrooms
five and six are on the second floor.
Local legend is that Dick Whittington set off from Whittington House for his journey to London.<br /><br />Whittington House has pretty gardens to
the front and rear enclosed by a stone wall.
Accessed off Vicarage Lane there is a gravel
parking area with space to park a number of
cars with an open fronted double garage. The
rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with well established borders and a number of mature
shrubs and specimen trees. A new paved terrace
runs along the rear elevation of the property
and is ideal for alfresco dining.<br /><br />Whittington House is located in the picturesque
village of Long Compton, within the
conservation area. The village is situated on the
edge of the Cotswolds, in an Area of
Outstanding Natural Beauty, on the borders of
North Oxfordshire, North Gloucestershire
and South Warwickshire. The village has a
general store, nursery and primary school,
a village hall, sports field and an award winning village pub which is a short walk away. The property is well placed for Daylesford Farm shop and Soho Farmhouse. The market towns of Chipping Norton, Shipston-on-Stour and Moreton-in-Marsh are all within easy reach,
providing a range of every day facilities, whilst
the cultural centres of Stratford-upon-Avon and
Oxford provide a wider range of recreational
and educational opportunities. National railway
services are available in Moreton-in-Marsh,
Banbury and Oxford Parkway.
In addition there is excellent network of footpaths for walking. Another feature of the village is the variety and number of societies that enhance village life.
