This detached four-bedroom cottage, dating from the 1800s, sits tucked away in Littleworth near Wheatley and is offered chain-free. Character features include sash windows, an open fireplace with wood-burning stove and period stone walls; many original details have been retained despite sympathetic extensions. The layout works well for family living, with a ground-floor bedroom suite, a kitchen/diner, separate reception rooms and an upstairs study/ dressing area that could serve as a home office.
Practical benefits include off-street parking for two cars and a private lawned garden with a side storeroom. Local amenities are within easy reach — village pub, meadow and regular bus links — and schools in the area have Good Ofsted ratings, making the house suitable for family buyers. The location is in an affluent, low-crime neighbourhood with average broadband and mobile signal.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property’s stone walls are likely uninsulated, glazing dates are unknown and main heating is gas boiler with radiators. Built before 1900, the house may need targeted work to improve thermal performance and energy efficiency. There is a medium flood risk for the area and the plot is relatively small, which limits extension potential.
Overall, this cottage offers genuine period charm, flexible living spaces and immediate availability with no onward chain. It will appeal to purchasers seeking character and village life who are prepared to carry out modest upgrading to improve comfort and running costs.
