Property
A recently refurbished three-bedroom character cottage, situated in the desirable Oxfordshire village of Kingston Blount.
The house has a lovely balance of period character and practical everyday living, with bright accommodation and a surprisingly generous amount of space both inside and out.
To the front of the cottage is a large open-plan living and dining space, with an electric stove-style fire providing an attractive focal point. The room works particularly well as a sociable space for family life and entertaining, with plenty of flexibility in how the seating and dining areas are arranged.
To the rear, the kitchen has been refitted in a stylish manner, with marble worktops and an outlook across the garden. A useful hallway provides access to the garden and incorporates additional utility space, while a downstairs cloakroom adds further practicality.
Upstairs, the landing is particularly light and generous for a cottage of this style, with doors leading to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. There are two double bedrooms and a good-sized single, with built-in storage helping to make the accommodation feel particularly well considered.
The current owners have carried out a number of improvements in recent years, including new windows and doors throughout, a replacement boiler within the last five years, boarding to the loft and additional built-in storage both upstairs and down.
The result is a characterful home that retains a traditional feel while working particularly well for modern day-to-day life.
Outside
The gardens are more generous than might first be expected and have been thoughtfully arranged to provide a good balance of entertaining space and more productive garden areas.
To the front, there is off-road parking for two cars together with an attractive front garden.
To the rear, a sunny patio provides a natural place for outdoor dining and entertaining and enjoys sunlight through much of the day and into the early evening. Beyond this is a well-established garden with plenty of space to enjoy, together with a small kitchen garden that has been used for growing seasonal vegetables.
The overall outside space feels both practical and inviting, with enough room to entertain, garden and enjoy the setting.
Location
Kingston Blount is a small and attractive Oxfordshire village, well positioned for access to the Chiltern countryside while remaining convenient for Oxford, London and the surrounding towns.
The village has a strong community feel, with an active village hall and local events throughout the year. There is also a café and B&B offering coffee, pastries and lunch, together with regular pub nights, providing a pleasant social focus within the village.
A local farm shop is within walking distance and offers fresh bread, pastries, meat, vegetables and other produce, while the village cricket club provides another popular gathering point during the summer months.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, there are excellent walking routes nearby, including easy access to the Icknield Way and the wider Chiltern Hills. A local park adds further appeal for families.
Aston Rowant C of E Primary School is close by, while nearby Chinnor, Watlington and Thame provide a broader choice of primary and secondary schooling, including Icknield Community College and Lord Williams’s School.
The village is particularly well placed for commuters, with convenient access to the M40 and Oxford Tube services, offering straightforward connections towards Oxford and London.
With its combination of character, practical accommodation, generous outside space and strong village setting, the cottage offers an appealing opportunity to enjoy life in one of this part of Oxfordshire’s most attractive rural communities.
