3 Bedroom Semi Detached House, Heath Lane, Bladon, OX20

The Mount is a distinguished Grade II-listed, three-bedroom home, enviably positioned in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Bladon. Extending to over 1,000 sq ft, the house is rich in charm and character, offering a series of calm and well-considered spaces, good ceiling heights, and a layout that lends itself effortlessly to contemporary living.

Occupying an elevated setting along a quiet lane, the property is defined by its honey-hued Cotswold stone façade, complemented by timber detailing. Entry is via a practical porch, opening into the principal reception room, where the home’s period charm is immediately apparent. The space is centred around a substantial stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove, while a deep-set window with an integrated seat invites an abundance of natural light. To the rear, the kitchen and dining area are thoughtfully arranged to create a sense of openness while maintaining a clear distinction between the two spaces, offering both practicality and a sociable atmosphere. From here, a door leads directly out to the rear patio garden—ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining during the warmer months.

Subtle period detailing continues across the first and second floors, where there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, each with fitted storage, along with a family bathroom. One of the bedrooms occupies the entire second floor and, thanks to its excellent natural light, it has recently been used as an art studio with a separate washroom. However, it would lend itself to a variety of uses, including reinstatement as a principal bedroom.

Outside, there is a walled front garden, while to the rear there is a Tranquil, low-maintenance private garden with a paved patio and decked area, framed by established planted beds and borders.

Bladon is perhaps best known as the burial place of Sir Winston Churchill (St Martin's Church). The entrance to Blenheim Park lies in the village and provides a 1 mile walk across the Park to the historic town of Woodstock. Village residents can obtain passes to walk in the park without charge. Bladon has a primary school, antiques/tea shop and village pub. A comprehensive range of shopping and leisure facilities are available in the local market towns of Woodstock (2 miles) and Witney (7 miles). There is a bus service to Woodstock, Witney and Oxford and a railway station on the Cotswold Line in the neighbouring village of Long Hanborough. Oxford Parkway rail station, serving both London Paddington and Marylebone, is c.7 miles.
