This one-bedroom end-terrace cottage blends period character with contemporary fittings in Marcham village. Exposed beams, a fireplace with a wood burner and a compact modern kitchen create a cosy, well-presented home suited to a single buyer or couple. The property is freehold and located in a very affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Outdoor space is a private, landscaped tiered walled garden accessed from a covered passageway that doubles as useful storage. On-street parking is ample nearby, and local facilities include a community shop, pub, primary school and sports clubs; Abingdon and Oxford are within easy reach for wider shopping and transport links.
Practical points to note: the cottage is small (about 538 sq ft), with traditional sandstone/limestone walls assumed to be uninsulated and an EPC rating of E. Heating is mains gas with boiler and radiators, and the property was constructed before 1900 — buyers should be aware of potential maintenance or improvement costs related to older construction and thermal performance.
Overall this is a characterful, picture-postcard cottage offering immediate comfort and scope to improve energy efficiency. It will appeal to first-time buyers or downsizers who value village life and period charm but are prepared to accept a compact layout and typical older-property maintenance considerations.
