Description

Welcome to Garden Cottage – a beautifully restored 18th-century home full of character and comfort, just moments from the heart of Watlington.

Set back from the road and less than 100 yards from Watlington Playground & Gardens, this three-bedroom period cottage blends historic charm with modern convenience which includes a garage and parking. Thoughtfully upgraded, with not one but two wood-burners - it offers a cosy living space and a stylish open-plan kitchen, - making it an ideal retreat in one of Oxfordshire’s most sought-after market towns.

Space for Modern Living
The ground floor features a welcoming sitting room with oak flooring and a wood-burning stove, perfect for cosy evenings. To the rear, a contemporary open-plan kitchen and dining space provides a bright, sociable space for everyday living and entertaining, with direct access to the garden. There's even a downstairs cloakroom and space for shoes and coats.

Three Bedrooms
Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, including a large principal bedroom with views over the garden. Each room offers ample space and natural light, and the bathroom is also upstairs too - a rarity in period properties like this.

Gardens to Enjoy
The front garden, enclosed by a low level rendered wall and accessed via a Victorian gate, offers a charming approach to the home. The rear garden is low-maintenance, featuring a raised timber deck - ideal for outdoor dining or relaxing. A gate at the rear provides convenient access to a public footpath leading directly to Watlington High Street and the hidden bonus of a community green space, affectionately known as The Paddocks, less than 100 yards behind the property (see the video for more details!), providing a lovely space for children, grandchildren and dog walking.

Practical Features
A single garage with power, lighting, and roof storage, can also be accessed via the garden, and is accompanied by an off-road parking space. The property also benefits from gas-fired central heating and mains services throughout.

A Prime Watlington Location
Situated just a short stroll from Watlington High Street, Garden Cottage enjoys easy access to local shops, cafés, and amenities.

The town offers a strong sense of community, excellent schooling options, and is surrounded by the scenic countryside of the Chiltern Hills. Families will appreciate the town’s highly regarded primary school and well stocked high street whilst downsizers will find the tranquil pace of life and friendly community a welcome retreat, with cozy pubs, the popular weekly market, and a balance of countryside serenity and urban accessibility, making it a highly desirable place to call home.

For commuters, the nearby M40 and Oxford Tube bus service provides a regular & straightforward connection to London and Oxford. In addition to rail links from Princes Risborough or High Wycombe.
