Arrestingly contemporary yet sympathetic to its arboreal setting, this five-bedroom house in Kirtlington, Oxfordshire was designed by the acclaimed architectural practice, Anderson Orr. The inverted plan elevates its living spaces, allowing for countryside views through broad banks of glazing. L-shaped, the house hugs its immaculate rear garden, where a stately willow tree and a peaceful studio stand. Kirtlington is a particularly sought-after village between Oxford and Banbury and is well-placed for exploring the countryside and its picturesque towns like Woodstock, a 10-minute drive away.
