Thame is a most attractive and historic market town offering an excellent range of shops, quality restaurants, banks and leisure facilities. Located in east Oxfordshire, close to the Buckinghamshire border, Thame provides very convenient access to London and the Midlands via the M40 motorway (junction 8a, 4 miles and junction 7, 5 miles). The University City of Oxford is approximately 14 miles away offering a wide range of educational, shopping, leisure and cultural facilities. For the commuter, there is a mainline Chiltern Line railway station at Haddenham & Thame Parkway, providing a frequent and reliable service into London Marylebone in approximately 45 minutes. Lord Williams Secondary School is located on the outskirts of Thame but can be easily reached on foot via a public footpath. There is also a good selection of private schools in the area, including Ashfold at Dorton, Swanbourne School and further schools in Oxford.

In the words of the owner:

“Having lived in Oxford city centre we wanted somewhere quieter to raise children and Thame fits the profile as a quiet town with enough going on to keep us busy all year round. We also love period houses so Hollybank was the perfect property for us as it was also in need of modernisation which we have completed to the fullest extent possible. We’ve restored and reinstated many of the period features that make the house so appealing plus we’ve packed it full of the very latest technology which is genuinely future proofed and very flexible to changing needs. The outdoor space is excellent for a town centre property including off street parking for 2 cars. The 2 gardens allow a great separation between the entertaining garden with outdoor furniture and a full stock of plants and the kids garden which is just laid to lawn and is great for a kick about and still big enough for a large trampoline. If more space is required, the 2 Parks within 5 minutes walk both have great play equipment, basketball courts and loads of green open space. We love living in Thame, the people are very friendly, there's an excellent community and fantastic local facilities. One of the main benefits of Hollybank is that it is within walking distance of everything. Whether you’re dropping the kids off at school, going food shopping or heading out for an evening you never need to take your car.”
