This is an ideal cottage for anybody seeking a weekend retreat or investment property or wishing to downsize.
Location
Taynton is perhaps one of the most unspoilt and sought after of the Cotswold villages on the Oxfordshire/Gloucestershire borders. The village nestles in the Windrush Valley amongst rolling Cotswold countryside within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is made up almost entirely of Cotswold stone houses and cottages, with the pretty church dating from the 15th century. The historic market town of Burford offers a post office, doctor’s surgery, general shop and library as well as an excellent choice of specialist shops whilst Cheltenham and Oxford are the main cultural centres for the area.
There are good road connections along the A40 and M40 to London and the mainline railway station at Charlbury (9 miles) provides services to London Paddington. There are excellent private and state schools in the area including Burford School, The Cotswold School, Cokethorpe and Kingham Hill School with a wider choice at Oxford and Cheltenham.
The Cotswolds’ year is packed with events, ranging from world famous international festivals like Cheltenham Literature Festival and Cheltenham Gold Cup Week to major musical events such as the Wilderness Festival, Cornbury Festival or the Big Feastival, as well a jam-packed events calendar featuring concerts, exhibitions, arts and literature festivals and theatrical productions.
Square Footage: 1,522 sq ft
