2 bed semi-detached house for sale

The Bank, Milton, Banbury OX15

Tucked away within the highly regarded North Oxfordshire village of Milton, Well Cottage is a charming two-bedroom stone cottage combining period character with comfortable, well-proportioned accommodation.

The property has been extended over the years and offers a particularly appealing layout. The sitting room is full of character, with exposed beams and a log-burning stove set within a stone surround creating a wonderfully cosy focal point.

Beyond is the kitchen/dining room, providing plenty of space for both everyday living and entertaining. Fitted with a range of cabinetry, wooden work surfaces and a traditional Butler sink, the room enjoys windows to two aspects as well as a stable door opening directly onto the rear garden.

Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms, both benefiting from built-in storage. The principal bedroom is particularly characterful, with an exposed brick chimney breast.

The family bathroom is generously proportioned and fitted with both a freestanding roll-top bath and separate walk-in shower, complemented by exposed wooden flooring and a Velux window providing plenty of natural light.

A particular advantage for a village cottage is the property's own driveway, providing off-road parking.

The front garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by established hedging, while pedestrian access leads around to the rear.

The enclosed rear garden provides a lovely extension of the living space, with a decked seating area ideal for outdoor dining, an area of lawn and established flower and shrub borders. Adding further character is an original working well, a charming feature and nod to the cottage’s history. A timber garden shed provides useful additional storage.
Location


Milton is an attractive and sought-after North Oxfordshire village, surrounded by beautiful open countryside yet exceptionally well placed for access to the area's market towns, villages and many of the Cotswolds' best-known destinations.

Nearby Deddington and Adderbury provide an excellent range of everyday amenities, including independent shops, pubs, cafés and schooling, while the larger market town of Banbury offers more extensive shopping, leisure facilities and a mainline railway station.

The village is particularly well positioned for enjoying the wider North Oxfordshire and Cotswolds lifestyle. Soho Farmhouse at Great Tew is approximately 8 miles away, while Daylesford Organic, Estelle Manor and Blenheim Palace are also within easy reach, together with the popular market towns of Chipping Norton and Woodstock.

For commuters, there is convenient access to the M40, while regular mainline rail services from Banbury provide direct connections to London Marylebone. Oxford, Bicester and the wider Cotswolds are all readily accessible.

Well Cottage represents an excellent opportunity for anyone looking for a characterful village home with the increasingly rare combination of private parking and an enclosed garden.
