Poggins House is a generously proportioned three-bedroom semi-detached home set in the heart of Long Compton, combining modern construction (1999) with reclaimed Cotswold-stone character. The ground floor centres on a large sitting room with exposed beams, a cast-iron wood burner and full-height rear bay with French doors that frame far-reaching countryside views. A well-equipped kitchen/breakfast room, adjoining utility and dining room provide comfortable family living and direct access to a large raised terrace and enclosed garden.
Practical features include a twin parking barn arrangement (two usable spaces due to an internal shed), an additional guest space, and a large plot offering scope for outside entertaining or garden projects. Services are mains-connected with oil-fired central heating; EPC is band E. Broadband is average for the area and mobile signal is excellent. Council Tax is band F and noted as expensive.
Material drawbacks are stated plainly: the property uses oil-fired heating (ongoing fuel cost and supply considerations), EPC E indicates modest energy efficiency, and the site has a medium flood risk which may affect insurance or future buyer requirements. One parking barn contains a substantial wooden shed which currently limits covered parking to two spaces. Flood risk, the oil boiler and EPC rating should be considered before purchase.
This is a strong choice for a family seeking a characterful home in a thriving Cotswold village with good schools nearby and easy commuter access. Investors may find a lettings guide of around £2,250pcm indicative, but running costs and energy performance should be factored into yield calculations.
