An extended three-bedroom stone cottage in the conservation heart of Charlton on Otmoor offering character living across multiple reception rooms. Original features include a stone chimney breast and wood-burning stove in the sitting room, with an open-plan dining room and kitchen/breakfast room opening to the rear garden. The house has a cellar and a separate study, useful for storage or a home workspace.
Practical details: the property is oil-fired central heating to radiators and is connected to mains services. EPC rating E and council tax band D reflect some energy and running-cost considerations. The cellar has flooded in the past — purchasers should obtain a survey and drainage advice; there is also no confirmed legal right to use the rear garden for parking despite past informal use. On-street parking only.
For families, the village provides a quiet, low-crime environment with a Good-rated primary school and nearby independent schooling options. Commuters will note relatively easy access to Bicester (approx 6.6 miles), Kidlington (approx 5.8 miles) and Oxford (approx 10.7 miles), plus several nearby rail stations to London. Living here suits buyers seeking rural character, village life and scope to update and improve energy performance.
