Shellingford House is an impressive Grade II listed property situated in an enviable position on a no-through lane.

The main house has very good proportions and offers over 7,000 sq ft of flexible and generous accommodation. Of note is a double-volume drawing room with views over the neighbouring countryside towards the White Horse, an extraordinary staircase, circa 17th century, with moulded balusters and Doric columns, and a wonderful party barn. Additionally, there are two cottages offering great potential for visiting family, multi-generational living, or rental potential.

The gardens and grounds are beautifully maintained and very private. A discreet white farm gate leads to a generous drive with parking by the front door. The gardens stretch down to a small stream, a lawned courtyard, a more formal lawn and an orchard with a variety of fruit trees. There is also a hard tennis court and a wonderful pool area comprising a large outdoor pool with an adjoining pool pavilion flanked by mature catalpa trees. The house looks on to an additional field of circa 5 acres. In total, the gardens, grounds and field extend to approximately 8 acres.
