THE OLD COTTAGE

Bicester Road, Kingswood, Buckinghamshire, HP18 0RA

Guide Price £295,000

764 sq ft / 71 sq m — plus a 138 sq ft / 13 sq m garden annexe

Freehold  |  Council Tax Band C  |  EPC Rating E

A rare combination at this guide price: genuine period character, retained in full, paired with the comfort and running costs of a modern home. Dating from around 1900, this semi-detached cottage sets exposed beams and a wood-burning stove against underfloor heating and a fully self-contained garden annexe — a specification more commonly seen well above this bracket.

THE ANNEXE & GARDEN

The garden annexe is self-contained with its own side entrance, keeping it fully separate from the main house — a genuine option for a home office, studio, or workshop without disrupting day-to-day family life. It sits within a private rear garden that has its own independent access, with space for both entertaining and further landscaping.

This combination of village setting and fast London links may also appeal to a buyer considering the property for short-let use or as a small home-based office, subject to obtaining any necessary planning permission and lender/insurer consent.

EPC Rating E (assessed 2020, valid to 2030). Heating improvements are believed to have been made since the assessment but not yet re-certified — worth a fresh EPC assessment at some point, as it may improve the rating, though not required before listing.
