GUIDE PRICE: £500,000 - £550,000

Offered to the market with no onward chain, this delightful period cottage has recently undergone substantial renovation and is situated on the edge of the desirable village of Bourton.

The meticulous renovation includes new uPVC windows throughout, a newly fitted Ecostrad iQ Ceramic electric radiators, a top of the range Sunamp Thermino heat battery providing fast-flowing hot water reliably, safely and efficiently to the home along with an exterior overhaul.

The double front property comprises an entrance hall, with the sitting room featuring a fireplace and the dining room benefitting from the original wood-burning stove. There is a newly fitted kitchen/breakfast room which leads to a boot room and the cloakroom.

On the first floor, the light landing provides access to the bedrooms and the newly fitted four-piece family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from countryside views to the rear and is accompanied by a single and double bedroom at the front of the property.

Externally, there is driveway parking to the front of the home which leads to a single garage. There are gardens to both the front and rear of the property, which are mainly laid to lawn, with the rear garden having patio area and a useful brick-built outbuilding.

The village of Bourton is picturesquely situated in the Vale of the White Horse and on the western boundary of Oxfordshire and yet within easy reach of Swindon and the M4 as well as Oxford and the A34/M40 via the A420. There is a co-educational preparatory school, Pinewood School, in the former Bourton House and a village hall in the former Baptist church. St James’ parish church is part of a single Church of England benefice with six neighbouring churches.



Nearby Shrivenham is one of the larger villages within the Vale of the White Horse and is located to the north east of Swindon (circa 5 miles) and to the south west of the market town of Faringdon (circa 5 miles). The village itself has an extremely active community and a bypass built in 1984 ensures that Shrivenham’s rural atmosphere is preserved. There is a lovely tree-lined high street with shops, a bank, public houses, a doctors’ surgery, village primary school and impressive Church, parts dating back to the 11th Century. There is also a golf course.
