The Deddington Antiques Centre has been owned by the current owners for the past twenty years and planning permission has been granted to convert the shop back to a residential dwelling.
The house retains many of its original features including fireplaces, doors and flagstone floors in the cellar. At present the the house offers many possibilities as to how the living accommodation could be arranged to include a kitchen and bathroom.
There are two entrances with the side entrance leading you into a reception hall. On the ground floor there is a cloakroom, three reception rooms and access to a pretty enclosed courtyard garden.
The cellar has stone steps leading down to a spacious room which would make an ideal kitchen, subject to the usual planning consents.
On the first floor there are three bedrooms, two of which are doubles and the single could be converted to a bathroom. On the second floor there are two further bedrooms, which could be converted into a large master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom.
Across the courtyard there is access to a self contained studio/annex with its own access to the street which would offer many opportunities. This is offered by separate negotiation.
