Charming 3-bed cottage, village amenities and recent boiler and glazing upgrades.
Three double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes
A characterful three-bedroom semi-detached cottage in Byfield, offered chain-free and set within a small, private plot. The home blends traditional features — exposed beams, flagstone flooring, bow window and two working fireplaces — with recent practical upgrades including PVC double glazing (2022) and a new Baxi Duo Tec boiler (2025) with a seven-year warranty.
Ground floor living is versatile: a flagstone dining room leads to a kitchen/breakfast room with patio doors to the rear garden, while a raised living room with oak flooring and a larger working fireplace provides a cosy focal point. The property includes fitted wardrobes in all three double bedrooms; the principal bedroom was created in 2022 by combining two rooms and benefits from windows on three aspects.
Outside there is an allocated off-street parking space, additional on-street parking, a lawned rear garden with patio, planting areas and two apple trees, plus a large external storeroom/workshop. The village location places everyday amenities, a GP surgery, primary school and local shops all within half a mile, with good road and rail links to Banbury and Daventry.
Notable practical points: the house is solid-brick as built (likely no cavity insulation), has a single shower room plus an additional WC, a modest plot and an EPC rating of D. These elements mean prospective buyers should weigh potential retrofit or renovation costs against the cottage’s character and recent mechanical upgrades.
