Located in the rural hamlet of Compton Beauchamp, Oxfordshire, this exquisite, detached, individually designed farmhouse-style property offers a perfect blend of modern luxury and traditional elegance. Spanning an impressive 3,554 square feet, the property boasts three receptions, four spacious bedrooms, four well-appointed bathrooms plus an over-garage Coach House style studio, making it an ideal family home.
Constructed in 2024 with a ‘Fabric First’ philosophy, this home represents a feat of modern engineering. The structure features a high-performance Kingspan timber frame, wrapped in a thermal mass blockwork and render skin with feature barn-style cladding, unified by a 1m high hand-made brick plinth. The roof is a superb example of traditional craftsmanship, clad with hand-finished clay tiles, whilst the morning/sun room offers a striking traditional green oak frame with vaulted ceiling. This superior, draft-free, highly air-tight envelope delivers remarkable efficiency: while properties of this scale typically emit 8-15 tonnes of CO2 annually, this residence is estimated to produce just 2.9 tonnes! The total energy bill for 2025 was just £1,070 - outperforming the EPC estimate by nearly 35%. The result is a future-proofed luxury lifestyle that maintains exceptional comfort with minimal energy input.
Internally, tumbled Dijon limestone natural flooring enhances the principal ground-floor areas, providing a cooling effect in the summer and a warm, inviting atmosphere in the winter when the underfloor heating comes into its own. A full oak-framed, glazed family room extension allows natural light to flood the interior, seamlessly connecting the indoors with the picturesque surroundings. Upstairs, the vaulted ceilings in all bedrooms and bathrooms add a sense of grandeur and space. With eight years remaining on a transferable Stroma structural warranty, this residence is not just a house; it’s a sanctuary of comfort and sophistication.
