Nestled in the heart of a picturesque and idyllic village, this exceptional Grade II Listed 3-bedroom cottage exudes timeless charm and character, boasting a rich history dating back to the late 16th Century. Meticulously modernised and improved by the dedicated Sellers over the past three decades, this stunning property effortlessly combines historic allure with contemporary comforts.

Upon entering, guests are greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere infused with a sense of history. The interior is adorned with delightful features such as a wood-burning stove, a traditional kitchen inglenook, and exposed beams that add to the property's unique character. Throughout the home, one encounters cottage-style doors, fitted cupboards, and fitted wardrobes, seamlessly blending modern functionality with old-world charm.

The cottage comes complete with a fully self-contained annexe, added in 2012, providing versatility and additional living space for guests or extended family members. The annexe offers a cosy living room, a well-equipped bathroom and a comfortable bedroom ideal for accommodating visitors.

Outside, the property boasts beautiful gardens meticulously landscaped with a stunning array of floral varieties, matched only by the choice of outbuildings which further enhance the property's appeal. Revel in the tranquillity and serenity of the surroundings, a perfect complement to the charming village setting. You will find many beautiful footpaths within yards of the front door and the location is on a bus route in to Oxford.

History buffs will delight in the knowledge that this property is rumoured to have been occupied by Cromwell's army during the 1644 siege of Oxford, adding to its storeyed past. Further testament to its historical significance, a William III copper coin dating back to 1699 was recently unearthed within the kitchen wall.

Impeccably maintained and updated throughout the years, recent enhancements include a full re-thatch in 2020, re-pointing in 2009, and the addition of a garden office, greenhouse, and garden studio are all supplied with power.

In summary, this quintessential English cottage offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history while enjoying modern comforts and luxuries. With its timeless charm, rich history, and beautiful surroundings, this property is a true gem awaiting discerning buyers seeking a premium lifestyle in the countryside.
