A beautifully restored Victorian stone cottage that combines period character with contemporary comfort. The recently renovated interior provides flexible living across multiple levels, including a light-filled kitchen/dining room, reception rooms with vaulted ceiling and wood burner, and a principal bedroom with balcony and far-reaching countryside views.
The property layout offers excellent versatility for family life and for multi-generational use: a downstairs bedroom and bathroom suite has previously worked as a separate annexe and successful holiday let. Outside, private off-road parking for two and a landscaped garden laid across three terraces, complete with a brook at the bottom, create a calm, secure outdoor space for children and pets.
Location is a genuine strength: set in Fulbrook with easy access to the medieval town of Burford, local pubs, footpaths and reputable primary and secondary schools. Fast broadband and strong mobile signal suit remote working and modern family needs.
Important considerations: the house is a period build (pre-1900) with stone walls that may lack modern cavity insulation, and double glazing installation date is unknown — this could affect running costs. Council tax is above average. Buyers seeking a completely turn-key, ultra-low-energy home should factor potential upgrades into their plans.
