This is Florrie's Cottage, a truly stunning and unique, Grade II listed, detached stone cottage thought to date back to Tudor times. Standing in the Conservation Area of this popular village in South Oxfordshire. The cottage sits within a very pretty walled garden, adding to the wonderful sense of tranquillity.

From the entrance porch you enter the beamed main reception room with its inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove. This flows into the quaint dining area and the spacious modern kitchen. A generous utility room also offers the benefit of a downstairs W.C, sink and shower. A cosy snug completes the ground floor. The stairs lead up to two good bedrooms, a freshly-refurbished bathroom, and above, to two areas of loft storage.

Across from the house, the original garage has been converted into a fabulous sun-filled vaulted office which could equally be used as a studio or garden room. The outdoor space also offers a sheltered patio area, a garden store with additional loft, and off-street parking behind electric gates. A charming gazebo catches the afternoon sun, surrounded by roses and lavender.

Florrie's Cottage is bursting with historic character and original features throughout, like its exposed beams, former village bake-oven and garden well. Yet it has been carefully brought into the modern world.
