Burn Orchard, Chapel Road, Oxfordshire, SN7 8LE

Burn Orchard comprises a semi-detached cottage believed to have been built in 1837 although more recently extended and refurbished.

The property is situated in a conservation area just off the village green, but within a convenient walking distance of the village high street and its facilities.

The property is entered from the rear into a most attractive sitting/dining room which enjoys an exposed wood floor.

Beyond this is a separate dining room/family room which has a fireplace with a wood burning stove.

An inner hall provides extra storage and leads through to an extensively fitted kitchen, which includes an electric range master for cooking, with plumbing for a dishwasher and a ceramic sink unit.

There is attractive fitted shelving under the stairs and off the kitchen is located a useful cloak/utility room.

On the first floor are two good sized double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a spacious landing area which is currently used as an occasional guest room.

Also on the first floor is an attractive family bathroom which is fitted with a modern white suite, including a large tiled shower cubicle and a panelled bath.

Outside to the rear of the property is a fully enclosed court yard garden, which includes a screened oil tank, raised decking and plenty of seating areas.

The property benefits from an oil fired heating system to radiators with UPVC replacement double glazing throughout and mains water, electricity and drainage are understood to be connected.

I note that the property has been rewired, re-plumbed and partly re-roofed since 2006.

Situated midway between the market towns of Faringdon and Wantage, Stanford in the Vale offers a local supermarket with Post Office, a successful primary school, pre-school, parish church, village hall, public house and independent coffee shop.
