Greatstones Estate
A unique blend of heritage living and investment opportunity
Tucked away on the edge of the Shotover Country Estate, Greatstones is a truly unique opportunity - a collection of five dwellings being sold together, set within more than 10 acres of private grounds. This secluded estate includes a five-acre paddock, a historic apple orchard, and private woodland that borders the CS Lewis Nature Reserve.
Alongside its lifestyle appeal, Greatstones presents a compelling investment opportunity. With four homes currently let, established outbuildings ripe for conversion, and over 10 acres of land including a five-acre paddock, there is clear potential for further development or diversification - subject to the necessary consents.

Arts & Crafts Character and Historic Craftsmanship
Designed in the 1920s by Dr Jacks and originally thatched, Greatstones was inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement - reflected in the distinctive brickwork and thoughtful layout. At its heart once stood a working brick kiln, part of a family legacy that shaped much of North Oxford. The clay was dug from the pond at the bottom of the garden - now a peaceful focal point of the expansive grounds.
Acquired by the current owner’s grandparents in 1947, the property became a cherished family home and, for over 50 years, a workshop for building harpsichords - a legacy still felt in the creative energy of the outbuildings and grounds.
