Property description

A Grade II listed 17th-century thatched cottage with gardens and a garage, in a village location overlooking The Green in Oving.

This period property with in excess of 2,000 sq. ft. of living accommodation, has been sympathetically restored to retain its original character in conjunction with the addition of modern facilities for family living. Such features include exposed stone walls, wooden beams, timber doors, open stone fireplaces (with inset wood effect burners), and a wine cellar. On the ground floor the property has an entrance hall, a kitchen, a sitting room with a walk through to a study, a separate dining room, a snug and a shower room. There are three first floor double bedrooms, bedroom one accessed via its own private staircase, and an en suite bathroom. Outside there is an established landscaped garden, on street parking at the front and a garage/workshop to the side.

Ground Floor

The front door accesses an entrance hall with a dining room opposite, a cloakroom and stairs to two upstairs bedrooms. The kitchen, which overlooks The Green, has a central island, modern appliances with a combination of wood and stone work surfaces, and a door to the study. The study has double doors to the rear patio, and is open plan to the vaulted sitting room. The dining room and snug have many original features and fireplaces.

Property Highlights

The snug staircase leads to double aspect bedroom one which has an en suite bathroom and like the other two bedrooms, built-in wardrobes. The dining room accesses a rear lobby with doors to the garden, the modern family shower room, and the cellar, which has stone flooring and a seating area.
