House For Sale £524,000
Accommodation The substantial and characterful accommodation comprises entrance hall, kitchen/dining room, sitting room, ground floor shower room, 1st floor sitting room, two 1st floor double bedrooms, a 2nd floor bathroom and two 2nd floor double bedrooms. To the rear is a pretty courtyard garden with a sunny southerly aspect and picket gate that leads down the shared drive to the garage (left hand one of three). The area to the front of this has been used for off street parking.
Situation The house is within walking distance of the open space and playground at Wood Green (0.2 mile) and the allotments at the far end of Farmers Close (0.7 mile)
The explanation for West End being in the North of Witney dates to when it was originally on the western boundary of the adjacent parish of Hailey. It has been described as "one of Britain's best-preserved streets" and is understood to have been the inspiration behind the song "Just an Old Fashioned House in an Old Fashioned Street."
Witney is the largest Oxfordshire Cotswolds town with a long history (appearing as 'Witenie' in the Domesday Book 1086 entry) and is now a bustling town supporting two colourful markets a week. Its location on the banks of the River Windrush led to the manufacture of high quality blankets known the world over until the last mill was closed in 2002. (The local football club was known as "The blanketmen"). Much of the town's fine architecture reflects the wealth of the woollen trade in its heyday. The rich variety of shops, street cafes, and excellent sporting facilities coupled with higher order services that include a hospital greatly add to the quality of life.
A mainline rail service to Oxford and London Paddington is available from Long Hanborough about 5.5 miles away with journey times of 9 and 70 minutes respectively.
Witney has three secondary schools with Henry Box tracing its roots back to 1660 and the respected independent Cokethorpe School is nearby. The recently refurbished Abingdon and Witney College offers a range of tertiary courses for school leavers and adults.
Services Mains electricity, water and gas fired central heating.
Fixtures & fittings Certain items may be available by separate negotiation with Penny & Sinclair.
