Semi-detached house for sale in Thame Road, Warborough, Wallingford, Oxfordshire OX10

A gorgeous, stone-built 17th Century Cottage in the beating heart of this prime South-Oxfordshire Village, a few minutes from Wallingford and within easy reach of Oxford and Thame, as well as close to mainline train stations for London within 50 minutes.

Welcome…
This quaint cottage, believed to date back to the 1640s, is filled with character and charm. The sellers have cherished it as their home for almost 45 years. The walls echo with countless memories and rich history in every nook and cranny.

Located just off the village green, you can see the vibrant lupins and hollyhocks rising high in the garden as you make your way to the front door, where you are greeted by striking roses climbing up the wall.

Come on in…
The cosy living room sits at one end of the cottage, with an impressive inglenook fireplace, uncovered by the sellers in a moment of curiosity. Imagine uncovering such a treasure, complete with bread oven and even a notch worn into the brickwork where knives were once sharpened by previous occupants. The ceiling is beamed, and there is a window to both the front and rear, ensuring natural light flows into this lovely room.

"The living room is a great place to hide away on a winter evening."

Quarry tiles adorn the floor of the traditionally styled kitchen, with wooden units and a fireplace housing a wood burner. Whilst there is undoubtedly an option to modernise the kitchen, it does hold a wonderfully rustic charm.

Moving through the property, we come to the dining room. This section of the property was damaged during WW2 and so was rebuilt in more recent years. There is space for a sizeable family dining table and a door leading into the conservatory.

Creating a seamless connection to the outside space, the conservatory serves as a lovely second lounge, perfect for the summer months. Enjoy your morning coffee in peace as the birds and insects fly around the gardens.

"I spend all of my time in the conservatory during summer."

Time for bed…
As the day draws to a close, it is time to head upstairs, where you will find 4 bedrooms, each with quirky ceilings and cupboards made into alcoves for additional storage. Views of the gardens and the village green beyond are perfect to gaze at, over that first cup of tea in the morning.

The bathroom has a WC, basin and bath, ideal for a nice long soak at the end of the day. Note, there is also a ground floor WC and handwash basin.

Glorious gardens…
Whether you enjoy growing flowers and vegetables or simply enjoying an al fresco lunch, the gardens at Quarr Cottage will not disappoint.

There is a patio area, perfect for a bistro set to enjoy lunch with friends.

On the other side of the property is the expertly maintained lawned garden. There is always something beautiful to look at with established trees and shrubs and flowers in the borders.

There is a greenhouse and a vegetable plot if you want to have a go at growing your own produce, and even an abundant apple tree. Get ready for endless pies, crumbles, or maybe even cider this autumn?
