April Cottage

A unique opportunity to acquire a two bedroom character cottage in need of modernisation, with off street parking and a large paddock, situated in the heart of the popular village of Kingham.

April Cottage is a charming example of a detached two bedroom, character built cottage, situated in the heart of the popular village of Kingham. Originally built as two farm worker cottages, this property has been converted to a single dwelling over the years and more recently been used for rental purpose.

Today the property is in need of some updating and has the added advantage of having the opportunity to being significantly extended, subject of course to the usual planning consents.

The existing living accommodation is spaced over two floors and includes on the ground floor; a kitchen/breakfast room, utility room/coat room with rear door access, sitting room with wood burner, a garden room and downstairs cloakroom. On the first floor there are two bedrooms, a double and a single respectively with a separate bathroom.

Complimenting this cottage further is a private gravel driveway with parking for several cars, a rear and side garden partially laid to lawn, a paved patio area with an old timber built car port and gated pedestrian access, garden shed and a large gated paddock (approximately 1.3 acres, overage conditions apply. The overage would NOT be triggered on any work/extension/building that is confined solely to the existing cottage and garden foot print. This only applies to anything, including extension work, that is applied for within the boundaries of Little Orchard).

Formally voted as ‘England’s Favourite Village’ in Country Life magazine, Kingham is an attractive village located on the Oxfordshire/Gloucestershire borders within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding beauty. Without doubt it has a thriving village community with a shop and post office, several pubs and of course Daylesford Organic Farm Shop a couple of miles away.
