House For Sale £290,000
The Willows, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX28

An imaginatively designed two bedroom cluster home with loft area and garage in a tranquil and sought after cul-de-sac convenient for the town centre.

THE PROPERTY:

This well-designed home is approached through a hall that leads into a living area large enough to comfortably eat in.

The stairs to the upper floor lead off a modern fitted kitchen. This room, like the living room overlooks a neat front garden with small terrace and area of raised lawn. The garden is sunken, and this makes it remarkably private.

Upstairs are two comfortable bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The loft has a window in the gable end and has been floored.

The property benefits from a single garage opposite as well as efficient gas fired central heating with a brand new boiler installed and sealed unit double glazing throughout.

Local Authority: West Oxfordshire (Tax Band C)

SITUATION:

The property is in a quiet cul-de-sac within 6 miles of a mainline rail service to Oxford and London Paddington from Long Hanborough (with journey times of 9 and 70 minutes respectively) and conveniently placed for commuting to Oxford along the A40. An alternative service to Marylebone is available from Oxford Parkway ( about 10.3 miles away). The town centre may be accessed via a pleasant walk across water meadows.

Witney is a thriving market town on the edge of the Cotswolds about 10 miles to the West of the dreaming spires of Oxford. 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. Some manufacturing remains and the town is home to Christy & Co - hat makers since 1773 to people such as the Royal family and Don Corleone in the Godfather films! Much of the town's fine architecture reflects the wealth of the woollen trade in its heyday. The rich variety of shops, good schools, street cafes, and excellent sporting facilities coupled with higher order services that include a hospital greatly add to the quality of life.
