The Oxford Mail's Property of the Week for this week is a Cotswolds Georgian Grade II listed home with palace views.

Located on the corner of Park Street and Rectory Lane in Woodstock, the property is a historic Grade II listed, late Georgian townhouse with views of Blenheim Palace, including the park, lake and island. 

Renovated by local artesans, the 3,579 square foot four-storey property has five bedrooms and four bathrooms and is on the market for £1,950,000.

Constructed of limestone with a slate roof, it was once a guest house and has featured in films.

The large sitting room has an 8'6 foot ceiling height, four floor to ceiling windows and an open fire leads to the dining room with bay window, formerly a chocolate shop.

The kitchen, with range gas oven, overlooks the walled courtyard garden. There is a cloakroom and rear hall with internal door opening to the garden.

On the first floor are three en suite double bedrooms with a sunny sitting and library area overlooking the garden with park views.

The top floor features the principal bedroom suite including dressing room with wall to wall wardrobes, bathroom with brass bath and fittings and views of Blenheim Palace.

The fifth bedroom, currently used as a study, has views of Old Woodstock and beyond.

The lower ground floor, with natural light, original stone floor and period range, was previously a self-contained apartment with its own access from the courtyard. It is currently used as an art and design studio with utility room.

Savills says there is scope for alternative uses, such as games room, gym, cinema or wine cellar.

Outside, the private courtyard is south facing so benefits from sun all day and a "beautiful" view of the church bell tower.

There is a double side gate to Rectory Lane and a large outbuilding with mains electricity with residents on-street parking.

Ronnie van der Poleg is marketing the property for Savills Oxford.

He said: ‘This historic Grade II listed Cotswold Georgian townhouse occupies a prime position on the corner of Park Street, with glimpses of nearby Blenheim Palace.

"Inside, it is incredibly stylish, blending sensitively restored period features with elegant contemporary living to impressive effect.

"With over 3,500 sq. ft of accommodation and the benefit of a south-facing courtyard garden, No.17 Park Street will hold great appeal with professional couples and families alike.’
