This Grade II listed detached thatched cottage presents a unique opportunity for investment and renovation in a sought-after village just over 9 miles from Oxford and conveniently close to the M40. Positioned towards the rear of a 0.2-acre plot, the property offers picturesque views over open fields. The interior features striking exposed timber details that highlight its historical charm, though it has been largely stripped back by the current owner, making it ready for refurbishment. A pre-application planning advice report and a detailed measured survey are available through South Oxfordshire District Council, offering valuable insights for potential buyers. Notably, there is also a static caravan on-site that can serve as temporary accommodation while renovations are in progress.
The ground floor includes a welcoming hall, sitting room, kitchen/dining area, bedroom, and shower room, while the first floor provides a spacious landing and an additional bedroom. The gardens are primarily lawned with mature trees and shrubs, complemented by parking space for 2 to 3 vehicles. This village boasts traditional architecture, an active community atmosphere, a primary school, and access to beautiful countryside walks. The cottage's historical significance is underscored by its name in honor of John Hampden, a notable figure from the English Civil War.
