Situated in the heart of historic Bampton, this enchanting stone-built, three-bedroom period cottage offers a rare blend of character, space, and convenience. No. 2a High Street provides the perfect setting for those seeking village life with picturesque countryside views, all within easy reach of local amenities.  Believed to have been built during the 16th/17th century, this property benefits from not being a listed building.

The standout inglenook fireplace and large wood-burning stove creates a wonderful place to relax.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms each have quiet outlooks and plentiful natural light.
