This stone-built two-bedroom cottage offers a traditional layout in the heart of Kidlington, a short walk from the High Street and local amenities. The home suits buyers seeking period character, convenient commuting via Oxford Parkway, and access to well-regarded schools and services. The reception room and compact kitchen sit on the ground floor with two bedrooms and a bathroom above; a small front garden adds kerb appeal.
The property retains original sandstone/limestone walls and a pitched roof with chimney, delivering authentic period character. Practical strengths include double glazing (install date unknown), mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, low local crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for professionals and home workers. Freehold tenure and affordable council tax add ownership simplicity.
Buyers should note material considerations: the cottage is average-sized (about 667 sq ft) with a small plot and on-street parking only. Internal fixtures are dated — the kitchen has older cabinetry, ceramic tiles and some uneven ceilings — so cosmetic updating or partial refurbishment is likely. Walls are assumed to have no insulation, which may need addressing for comfort and energy efficiency.
Overall this mid-terrace period cottage is a practical, well-located opportunity for first-time buyers or couples wanting character close to Oxford, or investors seeking a rentable property in a very affluent, family-focused area. Budgeting for sensible improvements will unlock comfort and value while keeping central commuting and local school options within easy reach.
