THE HOUSE
A ‘Slice of England’: the house appears at first glance as simply a traditional, white stucco Georgian English farmhouse but underneath one discovers more than a hint of Scandinavian and Caribbean style whose influences combine to make for a light filled and airy symmetry; a rich and finely detailed yet incredibly relaxed home, a ‘Slice of England’ – a warm family house that Vogue called a “Dreamy English Country Home”.
At the end of a quiet lane and behind wrought iron gates and set in its own private hedge bordered lawn gardens, America Farms has broad rural vistas over its own land; a private south eastern Oxfordshire retreat described by Vogue as a “Dreamy English Country Home”.

LOCATION
America Farm is very accessible from London – less than 50 miles away – with the M40 only six miles from the house so ideally placed to explore the many charms of the area. Oxford is only 15 miles away, the historic and charming Henley-on-Thames a 20 minute drive – for afternoon tea and a stroll down the river – nearby Wallingford is great for antiquing and Thames boat hire just down the road in Benson. And Heathrow Airport is just a 40 minute drive away. There are two footpaths across the field – owned by the property – to the north of the house but mainly used by occasional dog walkers but they do not affect the privacy of the house. The Shepherds Hut pub is also a short walk way.
