The AreaToot Baldon

Toot Baldon is one of South Oxfordshire’s most sought-after villages, occupying an idyllic rural setting amidst rolling countryside laced with ancient footpaths and bridleways, many tracing their origins to Saxon times. At its heart lies a charming medieval church, while the much-admired Mole Inn has long been a destination for both locals and visitors. The village also supports a thriving cricket club, shared with neighbouring Marsh Baldon, reflecting its strong sense of community. Despite its peaceful setting, Toot Baldon is exceptionally well placed, with Oxford just seven miles away and excellent connections to London. Everyday amenities are available in the nearby market town of Wallingford, while Oxford offers an outstanding choice of shopping, restaurants, schools and a rich programme of cultural and sporting pursuits.

The Manor House, Toot BaldonAbout this home

The Manor is an exceptional and architecturally intriguing house. Rich in period detail and historic character, it presents a rare opportunity to restore and enhance a house of considerable distinction, thoughtfully adapted for modern family life. Outline planning permission has been secured for an imaginative programme of improvements, including a striking Philip Johnson-inspired glazed garden room overlooking the magnificent walled gardens, a traditional oak-framed three-bay garage, the creation of an additional ensuite bedroom within the roof space and a carefully considered internal reconfiguration to improve the flow of the accommodation. Throughout, the house retains an abundance of original features, including stone mullioned leaded windows, carved stone fireplaces, Jacobean oak panelling, exposed timbers and centuries-old joinery, all contributing to its remarkable sense of history. The enchanting gardens, with their ancient brick walls, mature lime avenue, orchard, greenhouse and productive kitchen garden, provide an idyllic setting for this remarkable country house and complete a property of exceptional rarity and enduring appeal.
