Read the full agent description
A charming Grade II-listed detached cottage, dating back to the early 17th century, in an idyllic setting, located down a small private lane close to the heart of this popular Oxfordshire village.
The cottage, believed to be one of the oldest properties in the village, retains numerous period features and was extended in the 1960s to add versatility to the living space. The accommodation incorporates an entrance hall, cloakroom, and charming living room with exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace with a brick hearth and inset log burner, which is the real hub of the cottage. A latch and timber door leads to the first floor of the original cottage, which offers a double bedroom with vaulted ceiling, original wooden flooring, and a separate bathroom.
Bamboo flooring runs through the majority of the ground floor, with a dual aspect kitchen, two further ground floor double bedrooms which could be adopted for a variety of uses, and a small sunroom overlooking the garden.
One of the prime features is undoubtedly the glorious garden that surrounds Tudor Cottage. Bounded by mature trees and hedging that afford a degree of privacy, the garden evokes a feeling of peace and tranquillity, from the pergola-covered stone patio to the variety of shrubs, bushes and wildflowers thoughtfully planted around the lawn.
Add to this a garage and driveway providing off-street parking, and you have a truly individual home that combines space, comfort, and character in an enviable location, providing the opportunity to acquire a part of Appleton village heritage.
Appleton is an attractive village with an active community, well-served with local amenities which include a primary school, church, tennis club, and a local community-run village shop. The larger towns of Abingdon and Oxford are also accessible (6 and 6 miles respectively), with regular access to London Paddington from Oxford City train station.
The area is surrounded by countryside, ideal for dog walkers and those who just like to explore their surroundings.
