About Soulcombe
Soulcombe is an exceptional residential and equestrian estate set on the edge of the Cotswolds in the Oxfordshire countryside, occupying an elevated position with far-reaching views across the Cherwell Valley.
Comprising approximately 338 acres of predominantly railed pasture, woodland and landscaped grounds, it represents a rare combination of principal residence, sporting estate and agricultural holding.
At its centre sits an impressive neo-classical house extending to over 8,000 sq ft, arranged to accommodate both family life and large-scale entertaining. A grand entrance hall sets the tone for the interior, leading to a series of formal and informal reception rooms, including a dining room, office spaces and a billiard room.
The principal accommodation is complemented by seven bedrooms, five of which are en suite, along with a gym, indoor swimming pool, wine cellar and extensive ancillary rooms that support the scale and function of the house.
Beyond the main residence, the estate expands through a series of additional buildings, including two pavilions totalling over 3,000 sq ft. One provides cottage accommodation, while the other includes garaging with a self-contained flat above, adding further flexibility for guests, staff or extended family.
The grounds are carefully composed, with sweeping lawns, mature planting, a kitchen garden and a tennis court set against the wider backdrop of open countryside. The elevated position allows uninterrupted south-westerly views, reinforcing the sense of space and privacy that defines the estate.
In addition to the principal house and outbuildings, Soulcombe includes five further houses, two flats and extensive equestrian infrastructure. Three yard complexes support stud operations, while the wider landholding is suited to both equestrian and agricultural use. The estate also benefits from managed woodland and established shelter belts, supporting a traditional countryside sporting environment.
Despite its rural seclusion, Soulcombe is well connected. The nearby village of Kirtlington offers local amenities and leisure facilities, while Bicester, Woodstock and Oxford provide broader retail, cultural and educational infrastructure. The estate is also within easy reach of the M40, Oxford Airport and fast rail services to London Marylebone from Bicester Village.
Offered for sale via Savills at a guide price of £18 million, Soulcombe represents one of Oxfordshire’s most significant private estates – a rare opportunity where architecture, landscape and scale come together in a single, cohesive whole.
