The Studio
Situated in the quaint hamlet of Grafton in the West Oxfordshire countryside, on the edge of the Cotswolds, this impressive property with its private tennis court lies in a courtyard setting within 20 acres of private land. Arriving up a long gravel drive, passing a small lake and over a stone bridge, the large courtyard setting of the semi-detached Studio is idyllic. The owners’ house lies opposite, a discreet distance away and the surrounding private land is a haven for wildlife. Barn owls, kingfishers, red kites, otters, deer and grazing horses add to the beautiful setting. The front door opens into an impressive open plan living/dining room with vaulted double-height ceiling, polished stone floor and large wood burner. A galley-style kitchen leads through a glazed door, onto a private terrace with covered loggia. Planted with lavender, roses and shrubs, the west-facing terrace lies in front of your private tennis court with views of open grassland bordered by mature trees. With almost no light pollution the display of stars and constellations is breathtaking. The bathroom covered in travertine with over-bath shower, washstand, toilet, high quality towels and complimentary bath products. Stairs lead up to a galleried double bedroom with 6ft bed, lime-washed oak floor and Egyptian cotton bedding.
