33, South Street, Chipping Norton, OX7 7BU

An incredibly pretty Grade II Listed detached thatched cottage, constructed of traditional Cotswold stone and beautifully presented throughout, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a quintessential English country home set within approximately 0.17 acres of enchanting gardens.

This attractive period home is rich in character, with exposed wooden beams, stone flooring and a wealth of original features creating warmth and authenticity at every turn.

The generous sitting room forms the heart of the home, featuring an impressive working inglenook fireplace and stone flooring underfoot - a wonderfully atmospheric space ideal for both cosy evenings and entertaining.

Adjacent lies the dining room, again with stone flooring and exposed beams, providing a charming and intimate setting for formal or informal dining.

To the rear, the breakfast kitchen enjoys delightful views over the beautiful rolling gardens, offering a light and uplifting space in which to cook and gather.

A rear reception hall incorporates a convenient WC and provides additional versatility and access to the garden.

Importantly, planning consent has been granted for an oak-framed rear extension, thoughtfully designed to create an additional en-suite bedroom, presenting exciting scope for further enhancement while respecting the character of the original cottage.

Upstairs, the first floor offers two generous double bedrooms, both brimming with character, along with a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring a classic roll-top bath - perfectly in keeping with the home’s heritage.

Outside, the property is equally captivating. A charming front patio framed by climbing wisteria provides a picturesque spot for morning coffee. Behind wooden gates, there is generous private parking.

The rear garden is simply stunning - rolling gently away from the house with open views beyond, creating a wonderful sense of space and tranquillity.

At the foot of the garden sits a garden office, ideal for remote working, creative pursuits, or indeed as an occasional additional bedroom space.

This is a truly special thatched cottage combining period charm, practical living space, approved future potential, and breathtaking gardens - all presented to an exceptional standard throughout.
