About this property

Dating back to 1735, this period stone cottage (formerly two cottages) is Grade II listed, located centrally to all town centre amenities including train and bus stations, and offered to the market with no onward chain.

The accommodation is deceptively spacious and arranged over two floors. The cottage benefits from a wealth of character features including original beams, floorboards and exposed stonework, as well as a conservatory, courtyard garden and a parking space to the rear. The current owner has replastered the kitchen and put down new carpets but there is room for further upgrades.

The agent hasn't said which band this home is in; you can look it up on GOV.UK. In Cherwell, 2026/27 bills run from £1,722 a year in band A to £5,166 in band H.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Cherwell, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
