Burford House, English country house in Burford, England.

The red brick mansion features a symmetrical three-story frontage with six bays and Greek Doric columns supporting the entrance porch.

William Bowles, owner of Vauxhall glassworks in London, purchased the estate in 1720 for £35,000 and commissioned the construction in 1728.

The gardens surrounding Burford House span 3 hectares and incorporate traditional English landscaping elements with ornamental plantings throughout the grounds.

The property currently functions as a garden centre with retail spaces and a café, making it accessible for visitors interested in horticulture.

The house retains its original 18th-century brick garden walls extending from the southeast corner, complementing the architectural composition.
