Description

The Street Cottage, a seldom-seen Grade II listed thatched residence, presents a rare opportunity for renovation enthusiasts. This cherished home has been in the same family for over 30 years and is set within nearly 0.6 acres of enchanting gardens. The exterior features a well-established cottage garden leading to an expansive south-facing lawn that abuts serene countryside, perfect for outdoor activities and gatherings. Inside, the property showcases a harmonious blend of historical charm and functional living space. Highlights include a dual-aspect sitting room anchored by a grand inglenook fireplace, alongside a spacious dining and family area ideal for both daily life and entertaining guests. The adaptable layout encompasses four reception rooms, including a versatile space next to a downstairs shower room that could serve as an office or potential fifth bedroom. The kitchen offers ample storage with direct access to the impressive 23ft conservatory—a prime candidate for transformation into an open-plan kitchen with garden views, pending the necessary consents. Upstairs, four comfortable bedrooms provide pleasant views of the gardens or village street, with built-in storage solutions throughout. Located in Brightwell-cum-Sotwell, one of South Oxfordshire's most desirable villages known for its vibrant community and scenic walks, this property is poised for new owners ready to invest some effort into revitalizing its character while making lasting memories in this remarkable setting.
