3 bed detached house for sale

Shotteswell, Banbury - Rural Views OX17

A fine and rare opportunity to acquire this detached double fronted 1920's house which requires modernisation and stands in approximately half an acre gardens with open countryside to front and rear

Situation

The Conservation village of Shotteswell is situated to the north west of Banbury. A school bus takes primary school children to the nearby village of Fenny Compton and secondary school children attend the Kineton school, King Edward School and Stratford Girls Grammar School. A footpath from the top of the village leads across the fields to The Falcon public house. Nearby Banbury offers shopping facilities and train service to London Marylebone. The M40 provides access to both London and Birmingham (Jcts 11 or 12).

A floorplan has been prepared to show the dimensions and layout of the property as detailed below. Some of the main features are as follows:

* A detached double fronted period house believed to date back to the1920's representing a rare opportunity as it hasn't been marketed since circa 1950 and has been under the same ownership since 1962.

* Standing in gardens of approximately half an acre (0.43) we believe that there is great potential to extend subject to planning permission.

* Located on the western outskirts of the village enjoying southerly views over countryside to the front.

* Adjoining fields to the rear.

* A large frontage providing generous off road parking with scope to create as much as is needed beyond which there is a large garage/workshop with further outbuildings to side and rear.

* Two ground floor reception rooms and a conservatory.

* Ground floor cloakroom and modern refitted wet room.

* Three double bedrooms on the first floor and a bathroom.
