A delightful 16th century Grade II listed Cotswold stone cottage beautifully restored to an exacting standard throughout whilst retaining many charming character features.
Rose Cottage enjoys a wonderful position set amongst the oldest properties in the village with views of open countryside and surrounded by highly attractive and well-established gardens.
The glorious scent of roses is immediately apparent on the approach to the front door. As you step inside the inviting hallway opens to bright and spacious sitting room, filled with natural daylight. The standout feature is the impressive inglenook fireplace with a log-burner. A glass panel in the ceiling makes an interesting contemporary feature providing additional light.
The bespoke designed kitchen in the extended part of the property blends modern functionality with classic charm. Fitted with a good range of units and with plenty of space for a kitchen table. Double aspect windows overlook the garden with a barn style door providing access. A dining room is conveniently positioned next to the kitchen with access through an original external doorway. The original external wall provides partial division from the kitchen and the original window opening makes an attractive feature. There is a convenient WC tucked away to the rear.
A further generous reception room with a lovely feature fireplace currently used as an office offers versatility and could also be used as a bedroom.
The upstairs of the property offers an equally impressive experience as the rest of the home. The principal bedroom is a true retreat with its dramatic A-framed beams reaching into the steeply pitched roof and comes with fitted oak wardrobes.
There are two further bedrooms, and very large bathroom immaculately finished with subtle white metro tiles, a roll top bath, stylish separate shower cubicle with rain-head shower and luxurious double sink vanity units.
Significant improvements have been made to the property throughout, resulting in an incredibly comfortable and inviting home. The property was fully rewired, and a new kitchen and bathroom installed in 2018. There is a new oil tank, and the water tank has been relocated to the loft. The thatch ridge was replaced in summer 2023. The whole house has been freshly repainted throughout in luxury paint brand Little Greene and new bespoke shutters and oak internal doors installed. Structural enhancements includes the installation of a double flue and the raising of the chimney height, repointing of an external wall and removal of a staircase.
Stepping outside, wonderful well-established gardens with mature trees, herbaceous borders and a pond frame the house. A raised patio area with pergola is perfect for Al fresco dining or unwinding in a peaceful setting. The house is bordered by a low stone wall with double gates leading to a large courtyard driveway area with ample parking and a double garage.
Upper Heyford is a sought-after village, quietly situated in the heart of the Cherwell Valley midway between Oxford and Banbury. The community is vibrant with a well-used village hall and green plus an excellent local pub The Barley Mow. Many villagers also enjoy a walk of around a mile down the Oxford Canal to Lower Heyford, where a shop and cafe can be found at the idyllic canal wharf with boats available to hire and a further good pub, The Bell Inn.
Heyford Train Station provides daily services to Oxford and Banbury, changing for London/Paddington about 90 minutes, or at Bicester North and Bicester Village providing train services to London Marylebone (about 50 minutes peak time); in addition, Oxford Parkway at Kidlington provides services to London Marylebone and Paddington. Oxford can be accessed by the A4260/A44 and junctions 9 and 10 of the M40.
Nearby, the former USAF Base has undergone extensive redevelopment and offers a wide range of amenities, including a Sainsbury's Local, a Pharmacy, and the new Heyford Hotel and Baton restaurant, all within a short drive or a brief walk.
