Property Description

Property Details

Originally this 150-year-old cottage, formally and affectionately known as Anita's Cottage was used as two separate hovels by local minors, over the years the two hovels were merged into one, and the property was used for multiple occupancy types over the years.
In recent years prior to the current owners purchasing the property, the cottage was owned by a local mechanic and his wife Anita. The mechanic lived here for many years, and the current owner has incorporated some sentimental fixtures and fitting sourced from the old mechanics workshop, as well as many of the wooden beams throughout the property over its nine-year renovation being locally sourced and recycled from properties of historical prominence such as Blenheim Palace.

Swalcliffe is a beautiful country village, and it is a community orientated village where social gatherings and events are in regular supply. The village is very welcoming to new residents, and offers local events and gatherings are inclusive of new residents to the area, helping to provide a carefree and fun quality of life.

The property internally over the current owners 10-year tenure has been thoughtfully and thoroughly reworked and completely redesigned to the very highest of standards, just some of the most prominent features are as follows:


- Underfloor heating
- Bespoke staircase
- Bespoke bi folding doors leading to the garden
- Bespoke French doors leading to the side courtyard
- Solar panelled and rain censored automatic Velux windows
- Original parquet flooring
- Lazer welded bespoke German radiators
- Granit work tops
- Fully integrated appliances
- Carbon filter
- Wine fridge
- Wood burning fire

This property is very versatile especially the two receptions rooms, the current owners switch and change the dining room and main living area along side their seasonal needs and to accommodate gatherings and social functions.
The current owners love to listen to the Tawny Owls from the garden and reception rooms in the spring and summer evenings.
