Description
Dating back to 1610 and sympathetically extended in 1948, this exceptional three-bedroom cottage offers an abundance of period charm and character. Positioned in an enviable setting overlooking Childrey’s village pond, the property extends to 1,522 sq. ft. and represents a rare opportunity to acquire a historic home in one of Oxfordshire’s most picturesque villages.
The interiors are rich in atmosphere, with original features carefully preserved throughout. The country-style kitchen, crafted by Bracken Bay and complete with granite worktops, an Aga and a Rangemaster cooker, serves as the heart of the home. Underfloor heating adds a touch of comfort, ensuring the kitchen is both practical and inviting. The adjoining dining room, with its log-burning stove, is perfectly suited to gatherings, while the elegant sitting room, also with a log burner, provides a warm and welcoming retreat. A downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor.
On the first floor, three generous bedrooms are complemented by two bathrooms, each designed in keeping with the property’s traditional character. Unusually for a cottage of this age, the upstairs enjoys surprisingly high ceilings, creating a wonderful sense of space and light while retaining all the warmth and charm of the period. Exposed beams and historic detailing further enhance the appeal, making the upper floor as impressive as the ground floor.
The gardens are a delight, with a small pond adding to the sense of tranquillity. A brick-built shed provides useful storage, while the driveway offers convenient off-street parking. The property also benefits from Hive-controlled heating and water, combining ease of use with efficiency. Its unique position overlooking the village pond enhances its appeal, with views that perfectly capture the essence of rural Oxfordshire.
Childrey is a highly regarded village with a welcoming community, surrounded by open countryside and offering excellent access to nearby market towns and transport links.
This cottage is full of character and charm and would make a wonderful home in a much-loved Oxfordshire village.
