Please enter your starting address in the form input below.
An extended semi-detached Victorian home with later ground floor additions, offering very versatile family-sized accommodation, in a delightful setting set back from the road next to the primary school on the quaint village green. We understand the property was originally designed by famous Oxford architect, William Wilkinson. The property offers a stylish combination of period features and contemporary finishes with plenty of scope for the new owner to stamp their own mark. The large cottage garden lies mainly to the front and side of the property and with some care and attention could once again be a beautiful feature of the house. At the head of the garden, accessed from the lane at the front, a car-port provides off-road parking along with plenty of useful storage. The accommodation comprises hall, sitting room, dining room, bespoke oak-fitted kitchen, a quite superb garden/sun room with exposed A-Frame roof timbers and a feature roof lantern. This leads to a utility room, shower room and then a large ground floor space overlooking the garden providing studio/office/annex/bedroom options. On the first floor are 3 bedrooms and family bathroom complete with roll-top bath. The property has retained period features and styling that include ledged doors, stripped woodwork, white-washed walls, quarry tiles, fireplaces, and ornate antique style French 'Godin' stoves, and has oil fired central heating. The house is offered with immediate vacant possession - no onward chain - and viewing is highly advised to those seeking character and individuality in a highly regarded West Oxfordshire village.
