House For Sale £600,000
A fine mid-century detached home set in a beautifully mature plot of approaching a third of an acre near a mainline service to London & Oxford. Adaptable accommodation with great potential!
THE PROPERTY:
An individual home that, unusually for a property of this period, has two separate shower rooms and a further bathroom. One of the shower rooms is adjacent to the second reception room, making the creation of a sizable ensuite ground floor bedroom feasible. The nearby insulated garage lends itself to conversion. Subject to consents, this could form part of a self-contained ground floor annexe.
The principal reception room has a double aspect with a log burner set into natural slate hearth and slips and framed by original wall sconces providing a focal point. Opposite is bespoke cabinetry with a serving hatch preserving the authentic mid-century modern feel!
The inviting kitchen has beautiful view down the garden and a cosy part panelled breakfast area around the floor mounted gas central heating boiler.
The upstairs accommodation radiates off a central landing with separate shower and bathrooms to the rear of the property. Both the impressively proportioned double bedrooms have a double aspect and commodious fitted storage cupboards. Dormer windows to the front add character. The third bedroom has a delightfully quirky layout around the chimney breast.
The front garden is edged by a neat clipped box hedge beyond which is parking for several vehicles.
To the rear, steps lead down from the garden room to paved terrace that overlooks a beautifully mature garden with an expanse of lawn interspersed with mature trees that leads to a productive vegetable and fruit area with raised beds at the far end. There are a collection of outbuildings including a timber summerhouse and the total plot extends to 0.31 acres.
Local Authority: West Oxfordshire District Council (Tax band E).
We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £60 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks.
THE VILLAGE:
Affectionately known as 'Nor Lye' by the locals, North Leigh is located approximately three miles from Witney and originated as a post medieval settlement. It has two local pubs (one renowned for Mexican cuisine), church, village shop and post office, library, primary school (rated 'good' by Ofsted in March 2023) and sports teams for both cricket and football. A small supermarket and further amenities are available in nearby Long Hanborough. There are many good country walks nearby. It is also the home to fashionable and recently opened Estelle Manor (formerly Eynsham Hall).
Oxford is also easily accessed via the A40 and at Hanborough station (c.3.5 miles) there are regular trains into London Paddington (journey time 69 minutes) and to the dreaming spires of Oxford (10 minutes).
The nearby market town of Witney also has a rich variety of shops, restaurants, a leisure centre and cinema as well as higher order services including a hospital and tertiary education college.
