Newland, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX28

A two-bedroom cottage with parking, within walking distance of Witney town centre. Vacant, with no onward chain.

The property

If you are buying your first home or have outgrown an apartment, this cottage offers something a flat rarely can: your own front door, your own parking, and real character, all within easy reach of the town centre. It is also freehold, so there is no service charge or ground rent to budget for.

Recently redecorated, the house is ready to move straight into. The front door opens into a bright, dual-aspect living room measuring over 18ft. An exposed Cotswold stone wall and stone fireplace give the room its focal point, while wood-effect flooring and fresh white décor keep it light and easy to furnish.

The kitchen opens directly off the living space, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. It is fitted with a range of wall and base units, dark work surfaces, a built-in oven, gas hob and extractor, with metro-style tiling and space for appliances. The freestanding white goods may be available by separate negotiation.

Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom stretches to 13ft and includes a useful built-in cupboard, while the second is ideal as a guest room, nursery or home office. The bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite and tiled walls.

Outside

The cottage sits behind a low stone wall and railings, with parking to the front. There is no rear garden, which makes this a low-maintenance home well suited to busy buyers who would rather spend weekends out than mowing a lawn. The property also benefits from exceptionally convenient access to the A40 thanks to the newly opened junction allowing you to avoid the morning Witney traffic!

Location

Newland lies on the eastern side of Witney, within walking distance of the town centre and its shops, cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities, including Marriotts Walk and the Woolgate Centre. Cogges Manor Farm and riverside walks along the Windrush are close by. Regular bus services run to Oxford, the A40 is easily reached, and Hanborough station offers rail services to Oxford and London Paddington.

Ready when you are

The property is vacant and offered with no onward chain, so a purchase can move as quickly as you need it to. For first-time buyers in particular, that means a short, simple chain from day one.

We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £75 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks.
