Summary - THE LAST STRAW WARDINGTON BANBURY OX17 1SA
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Charming two-bedroom thatched cottage with open rear aspect and no onward chain.
Chain free two-bedroom thatched Grade II listed cottage
This charming Grade II listed thatched cottage offers classic country character with modern conveniences, presented chain free for a swift sale. Constructed in local ironstone, the house has exposed beams, flagstone floors and an open fireplace in the dual-aspect sitting room that capture traditional rural appeal. The kitchen/dining room and adjacent utility provide practical everyday living, while gas central heating serves the property.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden enjoys an open aspect over neighbouring fields and includes a timber shed, covered bin store and well-stocked borders. Parking is informal to the front on a gravelled area owned by the local highways authority; the main pedestrian access crosses a neighbouring driveway (right of access exists). Broadband speeds are reported as fast and there is no flood risk.
Important practical points: the property’s listed status and conservation area location will restrict alterations and may complicate insurance and maintenance. The small plot, single bathroom and thatched roof mean ongoing upkeep and specialist repairs should be expected. For buyers seeking period character in a quiet village setting who are comfortable with listed-property responsibilities, this cottage represents a rare, chain-free opportunity.
