Property Description

A fantastic opportunity to acquire an extended three bedroom character cottage in this pretty no through lane within a popular South Oxfordshire village boasting a good range of amenities. The property has remained in the same family for over 50 years and is in need of some modernisation and updating, where it undoubtedly provides an excellent and rare opportunity for a buyer to bespoke the property to their own specification. Offered to the market with no onward chain.

The main door opens to the extended part of the property at the rear, which provides an entrance hall, utility room and shower room, leading on through to a kitchen (in need of refitting), which in turn leads through to a spacious sitting/dining room with an open fireplace. To one end of this room are French doors opening out to a pretty garden to the front aspect c.36' x 15', facing due south, currently laid to rambling cottage garden plants and a small pond. The front aspect of the cottage footprint on the ground floor has also been extended slightly, we believe of non standard construction.

There are two doubles and one single bedroom on the first floor. The principal bedroom faces due south and has views over the village towards the church in the distance. The loft is partially boarded with a loft ladder.

Outside, to the rear there is also a courtyard garden c.27' x 25'8 and covered area wrapping around the adjacent cottage, which in turn leads out to the detached single garage and small drive accessed from the quiet village lane. The garage could be improved or indeed removed, to create additional parking. The garage is of non-standard construction (concrete sections). EER-E.

SERVICES
