A Grade II-listed thatched cottage believed to date back to the 15th century blends modern luxury with tradition.

Jasmine House, in Holton, near Wheatley, retains many period features including stone and inglenook fireplaces, exposed oak beams and stonework.

Set in almost half an acre of landscaped grounds and with views of surrounding countryside, it has three bedrooms in the house and a fourth in the annexe.

David Blythman, of agents Scott Fraser, said: “This house has an amazing store of original features including limestone walls, exposed beams and brickwork. The inglenook fireplace still has the original bread oven and herb-drying cupboard.

“There are two big reception rooms, both of which have open fireplaces and a separate self-contained annexe with one bedroom and its own entrance, which would be ideal for guests, or relatives such as elderly relatives or teenagers who want to be close by but still have privacy.

“There are open, rural views all around and the landscaped gardens are beautiful. The house has been refurbished and given a contemporary look but all the original features have been kept so that it has lost none of its character.

“There are also a number of luxury touches such as the bathroom and the stunning conservatory.”

Downstairs is an entrance hall leading to a downstairs cloakroom, then the dining room, which in turn leads to the sitting room. There is also a separate kitchen/breakfast room with bespoke oak units and granite worktops, an American-style large fridge and under-floor heating.

The kitchen opens out to an oak-framed conservatory, which also has under-floor heating Throughout the house are solid oak floor boards, Travertine and slate flooring plus solar-powered hot water heating. Upstairs is a family bathroom.

The two-storey annexe has a kitchen/dining room, sitting room and garden room and one bedroom with en suite bathroom.

The grounds include a patio plus large lawns, mature trees and shrubs, a second hard-seating area, vegetable plot, driveway parking, large garden store, detached garage and summerhouse.
