Description
Situated in the idyllic Conservation town of Charlbury, on a no through road, Priory Cottage is a quintessential Cotswold’s cottage dating back to the early 1980’s.

The family bathroom and principal bedroom en suite are stylish and well appointed with rainfall shower heads and chrome fittings. The family bathroom has marble flooring and a marble walk in shower. There is also an impressive, well-lit loft space that is floored throughout and accessed via a purpose-built ladder.
Outside, hidden behind the property is a delightful, secure garden, enclosed by Cotswold stone walls. Mostly laid to lawn, there is a variety of flowerbeds and mature fruit trees to be admired. A paved pathway and seating areas are positioned throughout, perfect to enjoy the summer sun, entertaining and alfresco dining. To the front is an off road parking space with an electric charging point, and gates on both sides of the house allowing access to the rear.
In addition, there is live planning permission for an entrance porch and additional accommodation to the rear. Please see the West Oxfordshire District Council website and search reference – 20/02548/HHD
