Description

Lying to the south of Cuddesdon village, in an elevated position with far reaching views south and east over open countryside, the Tithe Barn is Grade II Listed. With origins dating to the 16th century and reconstructed in the early 19th century, it is believed to have been part of a working farm until early 2000s.

The property benefits from current planning P23/S4142/S73 and listed building consent P23/S4119/LB (Feb 2024) to extend and convert to a sensational and unique contemporary dwelling. Retaining internal and external features, the proposed new dwelling masterfully maximises use of the generous internal space, whilst respecting the existing form and features of the building.

The plans provide for a stunning open plan kitchen-dining-living space with vaulted ceilings, new glazed entrance hall, additional sitting room, 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. Set in grounds of about 0.65 acres, there is provision to convert a further outbuilding into a double garage with attached one bedroom annexe. The planning includes landscaping with outdoor pool, terraces, attractive gardens, and parking.

Further information, including planning drawings and heritage statement are available on request.
