Set on a peaceful spot overlooking the village green, this thatched three-bedroom detached cottage combines historic character with everyday practicality. The house retains original features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove, quarry-tiled details and a stained-glass window — and was extended in the 1970s to create a usable kitchen/breakfast room and reception layout. The thatch was renewed in 2009 and the property benefits from mains gas central heating and secondary glazing for improved comfort.
The plot is modest but well stocked with mature planting and a lawn to the side; there is off-street parking and easy, walkable access to Haddenham & Thame Parkway for fast trains to London. The accommodation is compact (circa 818 sq ft) with three bedrooms served by a single family bathroom, so it suits households who value village living and character over large, modern floorplans.
Buyers should note this is a solid-walled wychert and brick-built cottage with no built-in wall insulation (as originally constructed). Thatched roofs and historic wall construction typically carry higher maintenance, specialist insurance and repair considerations. The ceilings are lower than modern homes and some rooms are small, which may limit furniture layouts.
Offered freehold and chain free, the house is presented tastefully throughout and will appeal to families or buyers seeking a period cottage in a desirable village location. Interested parties should commission their own checks on services, thatch condition and any works required to meet individual needs.
