4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Mill Street, Eynsham, Witney, Oxfordshire OX29

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period property with shop space in the heart of this highly sought-after village, just six miles from Oxford. With planning permission recently granted to convert the former commercial premises to residential use (Ref: 26/00603/PN56), the property offers exceptional potential to create a spacious family home tailored to individual requirements.

Believed to have originated as three cottages dating back to the early 1800s and earlier, the property currently comprises a characterful 4 bedroom residence together with a former shop unit occupying a prominent position on Mill Street. The approved change of use unlocks considerable potential to incorporate the commercial space into the existing accommodation, significantly increasing the living area and creating one substantial family home while retaining an abundance of original character and period features.

The property offers extensive and highly adaptable accommodation, with scope for a variety of configurations and could readily accommodate multi-generational living. The former shop itself retains a wealth of charm, including exposed beams, original fireplaces and attractive street frontage, making it a natural extension to the existing living accommodation.
The current residential accommodation is approached via a private south-facing courtyard. The ground floor includes a kitchen/dining room, cloakroom, utility/boot room/2nd kitchen and a welcoming sitting room centred around a wood-burning stove. On the first floor are 4 bedrooms, a second reception room, and recently refurbished bathroom and shower room facilities.

Shop Unit
The ground floor shop unit forms part of the original building and has exposed beams and fireplaces at either end. It has good front and access to Mill Street. There is a small kitchen and WC at the rear along with a ground floor office.

Outside
Leading off the house is a secluded and pretty courtyard garden with two pergolas and the benefit of a well for garden use. Beyond the existing accommodation, the property benefits from substantial storage and valuable off-road parking to the rear. The space could also be reinstated as garden if the storage facilities are not required.

Properties of this nature are rarely available. Combining period charm, generous accommodation, a larger-than-expected plot, ample parking and, most importantly, the ability to convert the entire property to residential use, this is an exceptional opportunity for purchasers seeking a home with genuine flexibility and significant potential to create a truly outstanding village residence. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate both the current accommodation and the exciting possibilities on offer.
