Set back from the road behind a five-bar gate and with driveway parking for four cars, Little Walls has a handsome mellow Cotswold stone façade with a slate roof and traditional-style windows in a soft green.

Spanning an impressive 3500 square feet, Little Walls was transformed by the current owners who added a superb extension and kitchen together with an additional bedroom in 2019.  The result is a fantastic, thoughtfully designed living space that blends contemporary design with modern technology including air-source heat pumps, double glazing and underfloor heating.

Step inside, and you'll be greeted by a sense of warmth and sophistication that permeates every corner of this lovely house. The farmhouse-style kitchen/dining/family room serves as the heart of the home, where a large central island, high-end integrated appliances, underfloor heating, and a wood-burning stove create an inviting atmosphere for cosy evenings and family gatherings alike.

With five double bedrooms and four bathrooms, including a superb principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe, Little Walls offers ample space for rest and relaxation. A separate guest bedroom and ensuite bathroom, accessed via a private staircase, ensure that visitors are accommodated in style and comfort.

The highlight of Little Walls is undoubtedly the stunning, light-filled garden room, with sliding doors that bathe the space in natural light and seamlessly connect the indoors with the tranquil south-facing walled garden. This versatile space serves as the perfect setting for relaxation, entertaining guests, or enjoying the outlook to the walled garden.

In addition to its luxurious amenities, Little Walls offers a host of practical features designed to enhance daily life. A comfortable sitting room with a wood-burning stove provides a cosy retreat for evenings spent curled up with a good book, while a separate dining room offers an elegant setting for formal gatherings. The large utility room/pantry boasts plentiful storage, a fridge/freezer, and a second oven, making catering for large gatherings a breeze.

Garden Delights

The south-facing walled garden at Little Walls is pretty-as-a-picture and is perfect for entertaining and relaxing.  It’s been carefully designed to enjoy the sunlight at all times of the day and to provide spaces for relaxation, play and entertaining.  Leading straight off the garden room is a raised terrace, perfect for al-fresco dining.  In the warmer months, opening the sliding doors from the garden room creates a seamless indoor/outdoor feel.  Adjoining the terrace is a lovely lawned area framed by raised beds with mature trees and shrubs. A detached, cedar-clad garden room with heat and light is the perfect home gym, office or teenage ‘den’.

A Prime Location and Lifestyle

Situated in the charming Cotswolds village of Shilton, Little Walls enjoys a beautiful setting surrounded by quintessential English countryside. With excellent state and independent schooling options nearby, including Cokethorpe, Kingham Hill, Hatherop Castle and Burford School (day and boarding), families will find themselves with plenty of educational choice.

Easy access from London via the A40/M40 and regular fast trains from London Paddington to Charlbury or Long Hanborough ensure that amenities and cultural attractions are never far away, making Little Walls the ideal retreat for those seeking the perfect blend of rural tranquility and urban convenience.

Little Walls is a rare gem in a dreamy location, but it’s far from remote.  Nestled in the countryside with endless walks on the doorstep, it’s also just a short drive or walk from everything you could need.

You’re just a few minutes’ drive (or a gentle stroll across fields on foot) from picturesque Burford, ‘the Gateway to the Cotswolds’ with its beautiful independent boutiques, art galleries and charming restaurants including the newly opened Bull Hotel.  Within the village the Shilton Rose and Crown is a true destination pub that’s popular with local and visitors alike.  Dating back to the 17th Century, it serves good food in an atmospheric setting and has a fantastic beer garden too.

In this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty outdoor pursuits abound with walking, cycling, horse-riding and golf on offer. Burford Golf Club is highly regarded for its lush green fairways and excellent social activities.   There’s plenty on offer for all the family including superb shopping at Burford Garden Centre, a day out at Cotswold Wildlife Park or letting off steam at the huge adventure playground at Kilkenny Lane Country Park.
