Land For Sale £750,000
The property enjoys a particularly tranquil location, situated up a drive about ¼ mile from a single track lane, yet only a short drive from the historic market town of Lechlade. Although it has a Gloucestershire postal address the property is situated in Oxfordshire.
The property comprises an extensive range of traditional buildings centred on a Cotswold stone barn with a part flagstone floor and three adjoining single storey ranges. They open onto two south facing courtyards and have planning permission (dated 27th July 2020) for conversion to create two five bedroom dwellings. Further modern steel frame buildings include a Dutch barn and open sided barn.<br /><br />The property is situated in pretty countryside on the edge of the Cotswold Hills with views over the Upper Thames Valley. The nearby town of Lechlade, which lies on the Thames, has several independent shops, a small supermarket, bakery, cafes, several pubs, a doctors’ surgery, and a library. It is particularly appealing in the summer, when the river is busy with cruisers, narrow boats and small boats. Cirencester provides more comprehensive facilities including an excellent range of independent shops, boutiques, and restaurants as well as regular markets and three supermarkets, including Waitrose. The cultural centres of Cheltenham and Oxford are within easy reach. There are many highly regarded gastro pubs in the area including The Bell Inn at Langford, The Swan at Southrop, and The Five Alls in Filkins.
Communications are good with road links to London and beyond via the A40/ M40 (J8) near Oxford or the M4 at Swindon (J15), and trains from either Charlbury or Swindon to Paddington and from Swindon to Bath and Bristol.
Local sporting facilities in the area include golf at Burford, Highworth and Witney; racing at Cheltenham, Stratford and Newbury; polo at Cirencester; hunting with vwh. Little Faringdon is located close to the boundary of the Cotswold Water Park providing various water sports. Trout fishing is offered at Lechlade. State and private schooling in the area is excellent with a primary school located a mile away in Langford, (Ofsted Good) and a highly regarded secondary school in Burford (Ofsted: Good). Private schools nearby include Hatherop Castle, Cokethorpe and St Hugh’s and there are many excellent schools around Cirencester, Cheltenham and Oxford.
