2 bedroom cottage for sale

A charming Grade II listed period cottage offering remarkably practical and well-appointed accommodation in a wonderful, peaceful location tucked-away on a no-through lane within this pretty and sought-after village.

Old Stream Cottage is believed to date from the early 19th century (Historic England) and was later extended to create a delightful character home featuring a beamed sitting room with an impressive brick inglenook fireplace, complete with a stylish wood pellet-fired stove/boiler and a good sized dining space, which opens through to a bright, well laid out kitchen with solid timber work surfaces and a slate floor. The property has been thoughtfully updated over recent years in an artisan style with distressed boarded floors and wall features, rustic latch doors and a stocked cottage garden. These elements contrast with contemporary bathroom and en-suite washroom fittings, custom-made double-glazed timber windows and the environmentally friendly high-tech wood pellet central heating system.

Upton is a small and pretty village with a strong village community.

Village facilities include a pub and church and a useful cycle way connection to Didcot via the old railway line of around 2.5 miles.

Local primary schooling, farm shop, filling station and convenience store are close by in the neighbouring village of Blewbury (1.5 miles) whilst Didcot (4 miles) offers excellent shopping and leisure facilities and a high-speed rail connection to London Paddington in approximately 40 minutes.
