Description

A Chocolate-Box Thatched Cottage in the Heart of Shrivenham
____________

Nestled within the picture-perfect village of Shrivenham, this enchanting Grade II Listed one-bedroom thatched cottage with additional loft room offers all the charm of a storybook home, combined with thoughtful modern comforts.

From the moment you arrive, the pretty façade framed by mature hedging and climbing plants sets the tone for what lies within.

Step inside through the welcoming porch to discover a beautiful reception room, brimming with period character and original inglenook fireplace setting a cosy ambience.

To the rear, the kitchen/diner is perfectly appointed, with double doors opening out to the delightful cottage garden – a private haven featuring a gravelled seating area, level lawn, and a variety of fruit trees, ideal for peaceful afternoons or alfresco entertaining.

Upstairs, the home offers a comfortable double bedroom, with built-in storage , alongside a stylish white three-piece bathroom suite. A further staircase leads to the versatile loft room, perfect as a study, guest room, or creative retreat.

Practicalities have been carefully addressed: the thatch is already scheduled for renewal next summer, fully covered by the current owner, and the home benefits from gas central heating, mains water, electricity and drainage. An additional outbuilding provides useful storage, and on-street parking is available to the front.

Positioned just a short stroll from Shrivenham’s vibrant array of shops, cafés, pubs, and local amenities, this is a truly rare opportunity to embrace quintessential village life in one of its most desirable settings.

A true chocolate-box cottage – full of charm, ready for its next chapter.
