Detached house for sale in The Green, Kingham, Oxfordshire OX7.

The main house, the cottage and the stone outbuildings form an appealing and harmonious group of Grade II Listed buildings on the west side of the village green. The courtyard was formerly the village pound, where stray animals were held, from which the house takes its name.

Old Pound House dates from the mid-18th Century with later additions. A handsome village house set back from the village green with an attractive front facade, built of Cotswold stone beneath a traditional stone tiled roof. The windows are in a pleasing combination of styles offering delightful views across the green to the village at the front and overlooking the walled rear garden.
