About this property
Detached period cottage
Sitting room with log burner
Beautifully renovated and extended
Four bedrooms
Picturesque village setting
Wonderful garden and paved terrace for entertaining
Nestled in the heart of the picturesque Chilterns village of Lewknor, this exceptionally pretty detached Grade II listed cottage blends 17th-century character with contemporary comfort. Dating back to around 1624, it has been beautifully renovated and thoughtfully extended in 2020, creating a family home of remarkable charm and style.
The welcoming sitting room retains wonderful period features, including wooden ceiling beams, an oak floor and an inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove. Elegant sandstone flooring with underfloor heating runs through the superbly extended kitchen, which is fitted with high-quality cabinetry and modern appliances, including electric ovens, an induction hob, fridge-freezer and wine fridge. A sociable breakfast bar suits casual dining, while French doors open onto a terrace lined with mature jasmine. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, four beautifully presented bedrooms provide ample accommodation. The master suite features a stylish en suite, while the family bathroom is finished to a high standard with characterful brick-tiled walls.
Location
Lewknor is a particularly lovely village situated at the foot of the Chiltern Hills and within a designated conservation area. There are beautiful walks in all directions and the area is popular with ramblers and bird watchers. The village has an historic 12th century church, public house and a successful primary school. The town of Watlington is only two and a half miles distant while the proximity of the M.40 provides easy access to the Midlands, London and the regional business centres of Oxford and High Wycombe. The Oxford Tube coach service, operating between London and Oxford, is within 5 minutes walk of the property and this stop also serves airport buses to both Heathrow and Gatwick.
