A Grade II listed country house located in the village of Poundon near Bicester. Approached down a drive with a lime tree avenue, the mansion was built in 1908 by the Etoneducated gentleman cricketer John Heywood-Lonsdale.

The original design is typical of the neo-Georgian style of Eydon stone construction giving it a rich vibrant yellow facade. The house remained as the Heywood-Lonsdale’s family home until the outbreak of World War II, when it was requisitioned by the government to help with the war effort. The house was used by Winston Churchill’s crack espionage unit, the Special Operations Executive. Eventually it was bought by the Roscoe family. This House is approached through wrought iron gates down a tree lined driveway. There is a gravel parking area to the front.

This House sits among 11.47 acres of land with a mix of landscaped gardens and paddocks. A special feature of the House is the Victorian style walled garden, an enclosed site which includes garden plots and a variety of fruit trees. The garden is enclosed with a red brick wall with three entrances. There is a roman style swimming pool within a private hedged garden. Beyond is a hard tennis court, a former croquet lawn and a garden pavilion.
