Having been recently re-thatched in 2022, the Cottage lies on a quiet lane with its own gated entrance and driveway. There is ample parking space as well as a four-bay oak framed garage with one of the bays being enclosed.
The traditional cottage benefits from a wealth of period features in every room. On the ground floor are two separate reception rooms, one currently used as a dining room and the other as a unique lounge area, including a beautiful inglenook fireplace. There are beamed ceilings throughout, with the kitchen and dining room having their own wood-burning stove.
Two staircases lead to the first floor, where you can find three good-sized double bedrooms and a family bathroom. On the upper floor, you will find a unique bedroom with en suite bathroom tucked into the eaves with original beams. This bedroom en suite also benefits from eaves storage space.
Outside you will find extensive lawned grounds with mature flower beds which wrap around the exterior of the Cottage.
There is also a woodland and your very own arboretum! A paved patio makes for a fabulous outside entertainment and dining space. In addition to this is a sunny decking space enclosing a sunken swim spa. The detached Dutch Barn houses car parking underneath, and a generous office space above makes a home office or additional accommodation (subject to the normal planning consents).
Shepherds Cottage also includes a small stable yard with loose boxing for three horses, a feed store/tack room and paddock space. This property is an extremely special opportunity for a family pursuing the countryside dream and is not to be missed.
Brightwell Upperton is an idyllic countryside hamlet, 'tucked away' down a quiet rural lane and just a 5-minute drive to Watlington, half an hour from historic Oxford and approximately 5 miles to Junction 6 on the M40. Local shopping facilities can be found in the nearby market towns of Watlington, Benson, Wallingford and Thame. Upperton, together with the neighbouring village of Brightwell Baldwin, are very conveniently placed just 5 miles from J6 of the M40, providing excellent access to Central London, Heathrow and the national motorway network.

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
