Charming Grade II Listed Thatched Cottage in the Heart of Shrivenham



GUIDE PRICE £200,000 to £225.000



Nestled along a peaceful lane in the picturesque village of Shrivenham, on the Oxfordshire/Wiltshire border, this delightful Grade II listed thatched cottage exudes charm and character. Thought to date back over 400 years, this beautiful period home is ideally suited for first-time buyers, a secure ‘lock-up-and-leave’ retreat, or a lucrative holiday let.



Positioned as the middle terrace between two equally charming thatched cottages, No. 17 welcomes you via a characterful flagstone reception hall leading into the cosy sitting room. Here, exposed beams, a brick fireplace with a timber mantle, a tiled hearth, and bespoke recessed cupboards create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Open stairs ascend to the first floor, enhancing the property’s sense of space.



The kitchen is flooded with natural light, thanks to both a window and twin Velux skylights. Fitted with a range of eye-level and base units, it provides ample storage alongside stylish worktops and an inset one-and-a-half bowl ceramic sink. Integrated appliances include an electric oven and a circular inset ceramic hob with an extractor above, while space is available for a tumble dryer, washing machine, and fridge/freezer.



Completing the ground floor is the modern shower room, featuring a close-coupled WC and wash hand basin.



Upstairs, the charming double bedroom enjoys views over the front aspect and benefits from built-in storage within the eaves.



Externally, the cottage boasts a pretty front garden, enclosed by hedging and wooden gates. Thoughtfully designed for both practicality and enjoyment, the paved area provides off-road parking for two vehicles, while a small lawn, complemented by shrubs and a seating area, offers the perfect spot to relax and take in the westerly aspect.



A rare opportunity to acquire a quintessential thatched cottage in a highly sought-after village location. Early viewing is recommended.
