The home, in the agent’s words
Read the full agent description
Stepping through the welcoming entrance hallway, the character of the property is immediately apparent. Exposed beams, feature fireplaces and attractive period detailing create a wonderful sense of history, while the light and well-proportioned accommodation makes the house perfectly suited to modern-day living.
To one side of the hallway is the bright and inviting sitting room, where exposed beams and an impressive fireplace with open fire provide a wonderful focal point and create the perfect setting in which to relax.
Across the hallway, the beautiful bay-fronted dining room is equally impressive. A magnificent Cotswold stone fireplace with working log burner adds enormous character and makes this a particularly atmospheric space for both family dining and entertaining.
The dining room flows naturally into the refitted kitchen, which has been thoughtfully designed to complement the period nature of the cottage while providing the practicality and convenience expected of a modern home. Completing the ground floor is a useful cloakroom, together with access to the cellar, providing valuable additional storage.
On the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, each continuing the cottage's warm and individual character. These are served by a stylish family bathroom featuring an elegant roll-top bath.
The converted attic provides a superb additional space and adds considerable versatility to the home.
Outside, the attractive landscaped rear garden provides a peaceful and private setting in which to relax, entertain and enjoy outdoor dining. Thoughtfully arranged planting and seating areas create a charming extension of the living accommodation.
A particularly valuable feature for a period property is the off-road parking for 1 vehicle. Double gates to the rear open into the garden, providing secure parking within the plot.
Combining the timeless appeal of a character cottage with generous and versatile accommodation, a landscaped garden and parking, this delightful Faringdon home offers an increasingly rare opportunity. With no onward chain, it is ideally placed for buyers looking for a distinctive period property that is ready to enjoy.
