PROPERTY OVERVIEW
This thatched Grade II listed barn conversion was developed around 40 years ago with this two-bedroom cottage style house situated in the delightful village of Swalcliffe, approximately 7 miles outside Banbury to the West side.
Swalcliffe is a small village at the edge of the Cotswolds located between Banbury and Shipston-on-Stour. The village has a significant conservation area and contains many connections with Roman and Iron Age history.
The development of The Tithings sits behind a C1400 tithe barn and much of the site are buildings originating from barns connected with that site. The village is serviced by the Stags Head public house serving food and with accommodation. The village has a private school, Swalcliffe Park School, providing schooling for Autistic 11–19-year-olds. The village has many clubs and organisations.
Wykham Cottage comprises a two bedroom courtyard property sitting amongst a variety of courtyard barns, providing differing accommodation. The property has a garage in a garage block and is approached via a communal private road and a large shingled courtyard area which provides parking to all of the properties in a very spacious setting. The property joins with the others in a Service Charge arrangement that operates to run the upkeep of the communal areas and services.
Outside
The cottage has a very good-sized garden which has a stone patio area outside the house, with steps down to a large lawn which is bordered by mature trees, shrubs and fruit trees. At the bottom of the garden is a small shed and storage area, with a gate accessing a right of way path that passes other gardens and then accesses the main courtyard area allowing bins etc to be kept at the rear of the cottage.
The properties on the development all operate on LPG gas which is available from a communal storage area and a syndicate payment structure is available.
Garage
The property benefits from a single garage located in a block of garages and has an up and over door. The garage has power and light. Further parking is available in front of the garage and in front of the historic tithe barn at the entrance to the development.
The property is to be sold Freehold and is subject to a Service Charge which goes into a communal maintenance fund covering the upkeep of the shared facilities e.g. the driveway and drains.
All room sizes are approximate.
