This traditional stone cottage offers characterful living on the edge of a sought-after village, with open countryside directly to the rear. The house is well presented throughout and ready to move into, with a sitting/dining room, modern fitted kitchen and three bedrooms arranged over multiple floors. The landscaped garden and single garage add practical outdoor space for family life.
The home’s period features and stone façade give it a timeless feel, while the garden provides a peaceful spot for children to play or for easy entertaining. With 970 sq ft internally and pleasant village amenities nearby — pub, post box and good local primary and secondary schools — it suits families seeking rural village living within commuting distance of Banbury.
Buyers should note some material construction and services details: heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas or a central system, glazing was installed before 2002, and the stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated. The mid-terrace form and small plot mean outdoor space is modest compared with detached properties, and there may be scope to improve insulation and heating efficiency.
Overall this cottage will appeal to buyers wanting immediate character and village charm, with straightforward opportunities to upgrade thermal performance and heating over time. The freehold tenure and low-crime, affluent area add reassurance for family buyers.
