A Distinguished 18th Century Stone Built Residence in the Heart of Brackley Where Original Features Meet Modern Flair in a Truly Remarkable Home

A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully modernised period home in the very centre of historic Brackley. This elegant 18th century stone built terraced property effortlessly combines timeless character with contemporary style. Original features meet modern flair to create this remarkable home offering three double bedrooms, versatile living spaces, private parking, a garage, and a secluded landscaped garden, all just moments from the town s market square.

The Home

Rich in heritage and crafted with care, this exceptional 18th century residence beautifully blends period features with modern comforts. The current owners have lovingly nurtured the property s character, thoughtfully exposing original stone brickwork, retaining timber windows, and preserving features such as original shutters and window seats throughout.

With original beams and modern bespoke carpentry seamlessly interwoven, the home is both timeless and stylish. The main reception room is a welcoming heart of the property, featuring a grand inglenook fireplace nestled beneath a striking original beam structure, and extensive bespoke cabinetry that doubles the kitchen storage into this charming living space.

The kitchen, fully renovated in 2023, is a statement in luxury and practicality. It features Corian worktops, inset drainers, and a full suite of Neff appliances including a double oven, microwave, plate warming drawer, and built in dishwasher. A filtered and boiling water tap, built in food waste disposal, and pantry cupboard further enhance functionality. The Samsung fridge freezer offers filtered water, crushed and cubed ice, while a wine fridge adds an elegant touch. A sleek hidden extractor is integrated into the hob, completing the contemporary aesthetic.

From the living space, a boot utility room offers bespoke built in storage and discreet housing for the washing machine and tumble dryer. This leads to a stylish cloakroom, fitted with Lusso stone finishes. A bespoke door from the boot room provides access to the rear garden.

The first floor offers an idyllic second sitting room, originally the fourth bedroom, now a tranquil additional living space with a wood burner, at the heart of the home. This floor is also home to the master bedroom, a true retreat featuring an original fireplace, feature bathtub, window seat, exposed beams, and built in wardrobes with gold cabinet handles. Remarkably, it retains one of the property s few remaining original doors.

The family bathroom on the first floor, renovated in 2023, features a rainfall shower, panelled detailing, built in shelving, heated towel rail, and high end fittings for a luxurious finish.

On the second floor, two further delightful double bedrooms each benefit from built in storage, original features, and a light filled, peaceful setting. This floor also houses a linen cupboard, boiler cupboard, and a second family bathroom. Renovated to match the first floor suite, this bathroom offers both a separate bath and separate shower, built in vanity, heated towel rail, and preserved character details, such as an original hook effortlessly blending historic charm with contemporary design. A brand new boiler, installed in April 2025, ensures modern heating efficiency.

The property also benefits from a small cellar accessed in the living room, and private off street parking, as well as a garage, and communal visitor parking area, all accessed from Manor Road a rarity for such a centrally located period home. The garage is spacious with shelving, a storage mezzanine and an electric door.

The Garden

The beautifully landscaped, walled rear garden is a tranquil and private oasis. With artificial grass and patio areas, it is designed for year round enjoyment and low maintenance. Ideal for both quiet relaxation and entertaining, the garden is a secluded haven in the heart of town, framed by mature stone walls that echo the property s rich architectural heritage. There is an original pigsty behind the property for additional storage or wood storage.

The Location

Located in the very heart of Brackley High Street, this property enjoys an unbeatable position with instant access to local amenities. Within a matter of steps, residents can reach independent shops, pubs, caf s, barbers and hairdressers, and the town s cherished small businesses. Waitrose is only a short stroll away, as are several coffee shops, a bakery and a deli, offering everyday convenience in a charming setting.

Just moments from the property is Brackley Town Hall, an iconic architectural landmark built in 1706 by the 4th Earl of Bridgewater. After a meticulous 18 month restoration between 2016 and 2018, it now stands proudly rejuvenated, serving as a vibrant community hub while retaining its original Georgian elegance.

Brackley is surrounded by rolling countryside, offering miles of scenic walks and a peaceful, rural lifestyle.
