Description
*NO ONWARD CHAIN* Located in the heart of the highly sought-after village location of Childrey, this exquisite 18th-century Grade-II listed thatched cottage sits proudly on the prestigious High Street, surrounded by picturesque period homes and a strong sense of community. With its timeless character, thoughtfully updated interiors, and superb village setting, this beautiful cottage should be viewed internally to fully appreciate.
Offering classic country charm, the accommodation is thoughtfully arranged and beautifully presented throughout. On the ground floor, the heart of the home is a spacious living/dining room. Featuring exposed timber beams, an open fireplace, along with separate a feature log burner and doors leading directly onto the garden, it is a warm and welcoming space perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The country kitchen/breakfast room offers further space for a breakfast table and chairs and leads to the practical utility/cloakroom. Upstairs, three bedrooms provide character-filled spaces, each retaining original features such as exposed beams and cottage-style windows. A updated family bathroom serves the bedrooms, blending modern fittings with a classic, understated style.
Outside, the property enjoys a pretty, low-maintenance garden with mature planting and a stone-paved seating area ideal for outdoor dining. Despite its manageable size, the garden feels private, making it a perfect retreat.
Adding to the home’s versatility is a detached double garage, part of which has been skillfully converted into a bright, fully insulated office—an ideal workspace for remote working or creative projects. The remaining garage space provides excellent storage whilst the driveway provides ample off road parking.
