A historic townhouse in Woodstock is on the market for £1.95 million, featuring three floors and rich architectural details.
Woodstock: A historic townhouse is up for sale. It’s located at 11 Park Street. This property dates back to the early 19th century. It was once called The Old Church House.
The home belonged to Professor Sir John Boardman. He was a famous archaeologist and art historian at the University of Oxford.
In the 1940s, the property housed the Samson Press. This was a printing business run by two women.
The asking price is £1,950,000. The townhouse has three floors and unique architectural features. It includes a vaulted cellar, flagstone flooring, and wooden paneling.
Much of the wood paneling came from Davenport House. That house was torn down for Headington School. Some paneling is believed to be from Blenheim Palace.
The garden has a flagstone terrace, lawns, and a greenhouse. It also has a stone garage with an electric door that opens onto Rectory Lane.
From the garden, you can see the church towers in Woodstock.
According to Savills, this is a “rare opportunity” for a remarkable townhouse. It does need some updating.
Huw Warren from Savills Oxford is marketing the property. He says this townhouse has a rich history and a great location near Blenheim Palace.
Woodstock offers many amenities, including a library, boutique shops, pubs, and restaurants. The Oxfordshire Museum is also nearby.
The house has many heritage features and spacious rooms, making it perfect for families.
