5 bedroom detached house for sale

Located in the highly desirable village of Little Coxwell, just a short walk to both the countryside and the town centre in Faringdon.

Coming in through the beautiful original door is the newly tiled hallway, with underfloor heating. This provides access into the living room; located at the front of the house with sash windows flooding the room with natural light from the south, the room centres around a large original fireplace. At the rear of the house is the kitchen/dining room that has an intimate yet spacious feel. A handmade English tiled floor has been used to emulate the character while also being fitted with underfloor heating to make this space great for socialising or entertaining. The kitchen has been newly fitted and has space and plumbing for white goods with a wraparound counter; there is space for a good sized table and a small seating area under the window. This room then provides access to the boot room and side door, as well as a separate utility and downstairs shower room.

Completing the downstairs accommodation is a further reception room fitted with oak smoked wooden flooring, currently utilised as an office/play room but once upon a time was a formal dining room off the kitchen, with the original shutters still around the sash window.

As you ascend the down-lit stairs to the first floor, you see another original, long thin window. On this floor are two double bedrooms, the largest, once two rooms, now has a great dressing room section, with dual aspect windows. The second double also is dual aspect. The family bathroom has been renovated and redecorated to a great standard and offers all the modern amenities one would want.

To the second floor are two further bedrooms/rooms with Velux windows offering far reaching views over the fields and local stables. Between the two rooms is additional built-in storage.

Externally, at the bottom of the garden, is an "annexe", that has the potential (subject to planning) to be a great source of income as an AirBnB, this would also make a great hobby room or office. The water and electricity are on a separate supply to the house and it is fully equipped with a kitchen and bathroom.

The garden is fully enclosed by an old stone wall and is mainly laid to lawn with side access. There is also a private gate and path leading to the local playing fields. The front garden is a beautiful sun trap and is mainly gravelled, with a great seating area and surrounded by a wrought iron fence.

*Please note, the owners of the house purchased it as a five bedroom home. It is believed that the loft and "annexe" have been used as rooms for many years, but it has recently come to light that they do not have building regulations or planning permission. A buyer will need to either take a view on this or retrospectively get the consent in place. *

This property is in a conservation area.
