About this property
St John's House, located at the edge of the village of Ramsden, Oxfordshire, offers the opportunity to create a masterpiece. Planning for the house has been achieved as a result of twelve years dedication, from design precision, through to satisfying pre-commencement planning conditions. It allows for a home of excellence, conceived by Professor Robert Adam, arguably one of the most revered British classical architects of our time. A work of art in its own right, St Johns House will occupy an elevated position overlooking a breath-taking vista of countryside in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
We spend years acquiring exquisite pieces, whether our passion is for art, fine wines, classic automobiles, thoroughbred horses or private jets. As our collections grow, and our time to enjoy them becomes more precious, we search for a home that is as rare and unique as the priceless pieces we wish to display.
The epitome of luxurious living and entertaining, St John's House ready to build to your exacting standards and precise lifestyle needs. All internal spaces can be configured for your style of living. The principal suite occupies the entire top floor (or twin principal suites if you prefer), offering unrivalled views, while the first floor boasts nine family and guest suites and a grand study positioned between the featured Palladian pillars.
The Piano Nobile' has been designed for entertaining splendour with exceptional ceiling heights and enormous entertaining spaces.
