A period Grade II Listed cottage in the heart of the historic and picturesque village of Dorchester-on-Thames. The property is set in the middle of a row of thatched cottages comprising the former Malthouse to the medieval Abbey.

The property is situation in a quiet cul de sac in the centre of the village in the amply named 'Malthouse Lane'. Entrance to the property is via the front lever-latch door into the kitchen which leads through to the open plan dining room & lounge complete with wood burner. To the rear downstairs is a small lean-to conservatory, courtyard garden and detached store/potential home office.

Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom in particular enjoys elevated views over the Orchards in Watling Lane and Wittenham Clumps beyond.

The property offers all of the common features that you would expect from a late 16 century cottage including exposed beams, differing floor levels, lower than average ceiling heights in areas and wood frame windows. The cottage does require updating but has been a lovely family home for the current residence for over 40 years.

Dorchester-on-Thames is an historic Roman village on the banks of the River Thames and is famous for its beautiful Abbey dating back in its original form to the 12th Century. It lies approximately 8 miles south east of Oxford and has good local amenities including a village shop, country hotel, public house and a well-regarded primary school.

The Europa School is a few miles away and there are further well regarded private and public schools including Abingdon Senior School for Boys, Didcot Girls School and a little further afield, The Oratory School. Didcot Parkway Station is approximately a 15/20 minute drive away with fast access to London Paddington via Reading and Oxford. The M40 Junction 6 is approximately a 25 minute drive.

Under the terms of the 1979 Estate Agents Act and our Code of Practice, we hereby give notice that the vendor is associated to an employee of Thomas Merrifield Ltd.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on February 22, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on February 22, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
