Description

Wytham Abbey, a Grade I-listed manor house in Oxfordshire, is a historic gem nestled in 23 acres of gardens, woodland, and parkland, just three miles west of Oxford. The building's construction spanned several centuries, from around 1500 to 1830, with notable features including gables, oriel windows, and battlements. The interior boasts fine stained glass panels, marble fireplaces, and a large late-Georgian oak staircase. The property's history dates back to the Saxon period, and it has been the seat of several noble families, including the Earls of Abingdon. The estate has undergone various transformations, including a major re-modelling in 1809 by Thomas Cundy, which gave the principal rooms spacious proportions and abundant natural light. Today, the property offers great flexibility as a residential events venue or family residence, with its secluded location protected by countryside and a Site of Special Scientific Interest, Wytham Woods.
