Description

An extended Victorian semi-detached stone cottage enjoying an idyllic spot tucked away in a no-through Lane just a few steps from open farmland opposite the parish church. The Cottage dates originally from around 1870 with stone elevations under a clay tiled roof and a later reconstituted stone extension. The property has a current planning permission for a large rear kitchen extension, reference 25/01367/HHD, and offers enormous scope for improvement and alteration in this delightful semi-rural location close to open farmland and footpaths. The versatile living space currently comprises a large lounge/diner, a separate sitting room, ground floor bedroom/office, kitchen, garden room, ground floor shower room, and a second kitchen/utility in a more temporary conservatory type structure. The first floor has a large master bedroom with Juliet balcony overlooking the rear garden, two further bedrooms and large bathroom with shower. Heating is gas fired to radiators, and other features include oak latch doors, fireplaces, and rear farmland views from the master bedroom.

Outside the cottage has driveway parking, and a good sized rear garden with westerly aspect. This is a superb opportunity to acquire a period home with genuine potential to extend and improve in a highly enviable West Oxfordshire village, some 3 miles from Witney, 8 miles from Oxford and within easy reach of the A40, A34 and A420. End of chain sale available for early completion, early viewing is advised. 

South Leigh is a small village with a widely spaced layout surrounded by farmland and open countryside offering lovely walks. Although relatively rural the village is only some 3 miles from both Eynsham and Witney and the A40 is easily accessible both eastwards towards Oxford (c.10 miles) and west towards Burford (c.12 miles) and the Cotswolds. The village has St James the Great parish church opposite, the Mason Arms boutique hotel/pub/restaurant within a short walk, and a lovely village hall. Shopping, schools and recreational facilities can be found in the nearby market town of Witney and Eynsham.
