A true Cotswold gem, this Grade II listed one-bedroom cottage dates from the 1500s and retains strong historic character: exposed stone walls, original windows, a stone floor and an open stone fireplace with wood-burning stove. The compact layout of lounge and kitchen on the ground floor with a double bedroom, dressing area and bathroom upstairs suits a single occupant, couple or those seeking a romantic holiday/second home in Chipping Norton.
The cottage sits on Church Street with a direct outlook to St. Mary’s church and a small enclosed courtyard garden that catches summer sun. Gas central heating, mains services and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity make the property comfortable for modern living, while nearby amenities, schools and transport links place the village centre on your doorstep.
Buyers should note practical constraints: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may make repairs and maintenance more costly; the stone roof and external masonry likely need ongoing conservation. The house is small (approx. 532 sq ft), has limited external space and roadside parking, and crime in the area is above average. The property has been run as a holiday let and is currently business-rated (approx. £2,500), previously Council Tax band B — purchasers should verify rating and tax status for their intended use.
This property will suit downsizers, second-home buyers or purchasers seeking distinctive period character rather than large modern living spaces. Where conservation and planning considerations are accepted, it offers a rare chance to own one of the town’s oldest cottages with an immediate, historic village setting.
