Bull Street, Aston, Nr. Bampton, Oxfordshire, OX18

An exceptional and substantially extended cottage in the heart of the village's Conservation Area. Impressive 'C' EPC rating.

THE PROPERTY:

Lovingly restored to an exacting standard for the current owners this enchanting home retains its characterful features, including exposed beams, a stone-flagged floor, and two spacious reception rooms, each enhanced by a roaring log burner for cosy evenings in.

Extended in natural stone over two floors, the property now has an inviting kitchen-dining room, complete with traditionally styled hardwood cabinetry, a central island, high-quality integrated appliances, and timeless stone worktops. Bifold doors effortlessly connect this elegant space to the terrace and the pretty garden beyond.

The thoughtful layout includes a downstairs cloakroom, an integral garage, and a light-filled utility room with a vaulted ceiling and separate garden access. Original kite winder stairs lead to a versatile upstairs study and a landing, also accessible from the new (and far more practical) main staircase.

On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, each with built-in storage. One enjoys an en-suite shower room, while the family bathroom impresses with a deep panelled bath, a uniquely shaped shower tucked beside the chimney breast, with a skylight above. The top floor features a charming fourth bedroom with exposed roof timbers and its own en-suite, creating a private retreat.

Bespoke double-glazed casement windows have been installed throughout, preserving the home’s character while contributing to its excellent energy efficiency. Combined with a well-insulated extension and efficient gas central heating, the property achieves an impressive EPC rating, ensuring this home remains snug without enormous utility bills!

There is a pedestrian right of way in favour of the adjoining cottage that runs along the far boundary of the garden and shares the gated access to the side of the property.

This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a characterful yet practical home, offering the perfect balance of authentic period charm and modern family living.

We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £75 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks.
