Description

This charming two-bedroom semi-detached cottage, steeped in history dating back to the 1700s, presents a significant opportunity for renovation and transformation. Overlooking an open field, the property is currently unmodernised but holds substantial potential for expansion — subject to planning permissions — allowing for creative reconfiguration and enhancement over two floors. The ground floor features a traditional entrance porch leading into a reception room with a characterful fireplace, complemented by a conservatory that opens onto the garden. A kitchen and bathroom complete this level. Upstairs, you will find a landing with a separate WC, along with two spacious double bedrooms. The outdoor space boasts generous gardens at the front, side, and rear, primarily laid to lawn with established flowerbeds and various outbuildings, including a workshop with its own WC and additional storage options like a greenhouse. Notably, there is also a detached garage on an adjacent plot across Cumnor Road, providing ample off-street parking along with further land which was previously utilized as a vegetable garden. Situated just five miles from Oxford in the tranquil hamlet of Filchampstead, the location offers a blend of rural charm with convenient access to city amenities. The picturesque surroundings include rolling fields and proximity to Farmoor Reservoir—ideal for those who enjoy an active lifestyle featuring sailing and walking opportunities within the Oxford Green Belt.
