Double fronted retail premises in prominent position on Chipping Norton High Street.

Chipping Norton - This picturesque and vibrant Market Town is renowned for its exceptional services, serving a vast rural area spanning both Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds. Its impressive array of shops encompasses both popular High Street brands and quaint boutiques, alongside bookshops and antique stores. Chipping Norton is a highly sought-after location, capturing an affluent demographic, thanks to its proximity to exclusive country clubs, such as Soho Farmhouse and the farm shop at Daylesford, and Diddly Squat Farm. These associations have contributed significantly to the demand for property in the area, with Chipping Norton now renowned for its strong real estate market and increasing reputation as a haven for "foodies." The town's picturesque countryside, rich historical architecture, and lively community offer an exceptional combination of rural charm and urban sophistication
