This charming two-bedroom stone cottage in Long Compton combines period character with a high-standard recent renovation. Exposed stone walls, inglenook fireplaces and oak finishes give the house authentic Cotswold appeal, while the refurbished kitchen and bathroom bring modern comfort. The private, well-planted rear garden and detached garage with off-street parking add practical value for everyday life.
The cottage works well for downsizers or couples seeking village life: the layout is comfortable across c.1,016 sq ft with two double bedrooms and a generous principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes. The village offers excellent local facilities including a shop, church, primary school and a popular pub, with Chipping Norton and Shipston-on-Stour within a short drive.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the property’s EPC is band E, broadband speeds in the postcode are limited, and there is a medium flooding risk for the area. Heating details are mixed in the listing (electric storage heaters referenced and an external oil boiler and tank present); confirm the current heating configuration and running costs before purchase. The cottage has original stone walls (assumed without modern cavity insulation) and secondary glazing, which may influence future energy-efficiency upgrades.
Overall this is a beautifully presented historic cottage on a very large plot, offering immediate move-in quality with potential for further energy improvements and long-term value in a desirable Cotswolds village setting.
