Approximately 1,500 sq ft across two storeys, Freehold
Integral garage plus on-street parking; large plot

Set on a substantial plot in the sought-after village of Barford St. John, this three-bedroom stone cottage combines period charm with countryside views. The sitting room’s open stone fireplace and an orangery/conservatory overlook a south-facing garden and open fields, creating a bright, peaceful family living space. An integral garage and paved patio add practical outdoor living and storage.
The layout provides comfortable family accommodation across the ground and first floors: a kitchen/dining room, sitting room, orangery, and three bedrooms served by a single family bathroom. The property is Freehold and offers about 1,500 sq ft of internal space — plenty of room for growing families or those wanting a home office and guest space.
Buyers should be aware of several practical considerations: heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, the cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated, and broadband speeds in the area are very slow. There is private drainage. These factors mean running costs and retrofit work (insulation, heating upgrade, broadband solutions) may be needed.
This cottage will suit buyers who value rural character, expansive gardens and field views and are willing to invest in energy and connectivity improvements. It’s well-placed for village life with nearby schools and quick road links to Banbury and surrounding towns.
