A439 - Kidlington Palladian mansion

Description:

This 18th Century Grade 1 Listed stately home, is set within ‘Capability’ Brown landscaped grounds.

A sweeping driveway, flanked on both sides by parkland and centuries-old trees leads to the striking Palladian façade of Kirtlington Park. With its majestic staircases and terraces, the house exemplifies its architectural era and is a largely undiscovered gem of the county.

The interior of the house features four grand and beautifully decorated reception rooms on the first floor, each with high ceilings, interesting architectural features and storied artworks.

On the ground floor, there are a number of additional rooms of interest, including a billiard room and butler’s pantry as well as several ‘service’ rooms that can be used for production and storage. An unusually wide corridor runs from the front door to the rear of the house, and a lift services all floors. Staircases from the ground to the first and second floors are wide and elegant, practical but attractive in their own right.

On the second floor, there are five large bedrooms, recently refurbished, including the ‘Wedding Suite’ with its far-reaching views across the grounds. Eight further bedrooms are located on the third floor.

To the rear of the house are the landscaped gardens, with views to the lake, terraced lawns, a tennis court, ornamental beds, wooded walkways and in summer, a wildflower meadow.

Tracked access is possible around the grounds and extensive parking for vehicles of all sizes can be arranged on request.
