Summary - THE THATCHED COTTAGE PIDDINGTON ROAD LUDGERSHALL AYLESBURY HP18 9PQ
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Character-filled village home with stables and large plot for country living.
18th-century detached thatched cottage with period features
An authentic 18th-century thatched cottage set on a large plot with paddock and powered stables — rare in a village setting and ideal for buyers seeking equestrian or country living. The house retains strong period character: exposed beams, a brick fireplace with a wood-burning stove, a vaulted kitchen/dining room with garden views, and a newly re-thatched roof. Off-street parking and gated access add practical convenience to the picturesque curb appeal.
Accommodation includes two reception rooms, a kitchen/dining area, ground-floor bathroom and three upstairs bedrooms; one bedroom has a WC. Rooms are characterful but generally modest in scale, with low ceilings and some head-height restrictions on the upper floor. The property will suit buyers who value period detail over modern, open-plan proportions.
The garden wraps around the house and leads to an enclosed paddock with stables that have power and lighting — useful for horses, livestock or hobby uses. The village location offers a quiet rural lifestyle with good local schools nearby and easy road links to Bicester, Thame and the M40. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and local crime is very low.
Important considerations: the cottage’s age and character mean there may be ongoing maintenance and conservation costs; some rooms are small with low ceilings, and purchasers should satisfy themselves on the condition of services, structure and insulation. Overall this is a distinctive countryside property with genuine land and equestrian potential for the right buyer.
