Wellshead House, HarwellAbout this home

Wellshead House is a superb village house, located in the historic heart of this ancient village. With an attractive Georgian façade and stunning private garden, this is an exceptional family home, which is ideally placed for commuting to London. Originally dating from about 1650 as a timber framed Long House, the main body of the house was added in around 1750 and the Georgian façade, with its symmetrical sashes and central front door was added later. A prominent house within the village, the house was the village GP’s surgery for much of the 20th Century. The current owners have conducted a significant programme of restoration and remodelling to provide a stylish and practical family house.
