Compact period home in the heart of Marcham, moments from countryside and the pub.
Victorian one-bedroom cottage with original character and exposed beams
This Victorian one-bedroom cottage sits in the heart of Marcham, set back behind a traditional stone wall with a small lawned front garden and handy log storage. The village location is a major draw — walk to the local pub, enjoy nearby countryside routes and benefit from straightforward links into Abingdon and surrounding villages.
Inside, the property retains original character: exposed beams in the compact country kitchen, an exposed stone wall and a wood-burning stove in the cosy lounge, and a generous double bedroom upstairs. A large family bathroom and loft access provide useful practical space for daily living and storage.
Practical information is clear: the home is freehold, connected to mains gas, water, electric and drainage, and has gas central heating and double glazing installed after 2002. Broadband and mobile coverage are good in this area. Off-street parking applies but the current drive is occupied by a shed, which provides storage but may affect immediate parking availability.
Buyers should note some material considerations: the cottage was built before 1900 and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated, which affects thermal efficiency. The EPC rating is E. Properties of this age may contain residual historic materials (for example certain pre-1999 finishes) so buyers should take professional advice if planning alterations. Overall, this is a characterful, compact village home suited to someone seeking a low-maintenance, period property with scope to improve energy performance over time.
