An EPC has been commissioned and will be made available once received.

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.

SITUATION:

Burwell Farm is an established residential part of the town dating from the early 1960's. Its houses have the clean, uncluttered lines and sense of space an light associated with this type of 'mid-century' architecture. This style is now becoming much more widely appreciated and desirable.

It has its own amenities including a shopping area with post office and a variety of take away food outlets, as well as good bus services to the town centre and Oxford.

The house is also situated in a prime location for both Little Oaks Pre-school (Ofsted Good - 2019) and Queen Emma Primary School (Offstead Good - 2017).

Witney is a thriving market town on the edge of the Cotswolds about 10 miles to the West of the dreaming spires of Oxford. Its location on the banks of the River Windrush led to the manufacture of high quality blankets known the world over until the last mill was closed in 2002. Some manufacturing remains and the town is home to Christy & Co - hat makers since 1773 to people as diverse as the Royal family to Don Corleone in the Godfather films! Much of the town's fine architecture reflects the wealth of the woollen trade in its heyday. The rich variety of shops, street cafes, and excellent sporting facilities coupled with higher order services that include a hospital greatly add to the quality of life. Little wonder then that the town was selected by The Sunday Times newspaper (March 2014) as one of the best places to live in Britain!

A mainline rail service to Oxford and London Paddington is available from Long Hanborough about 5 miles away with journey times of 9 and 70 minutes respectively.
