4 bed detached house for sale

Brightwell Street, Brightwell-Cum-Sotwell, Wallingford OX10

Welcome To The Street Cottage, Brightwell Cum Sotwell, Oxfordshire

The Street Cottage is one of those homes that rarely comes to the market. A beautiful Grade II listed thatched cottage, it has been lovingly cared for by the same family for more than 30 years, and it's easy to understand why.

Set within just under 0.6 acres, the gardens are every bit as special as the house itself. Immediately behind the cottage is a beautifully established cottage garden, while beyond that the space opens into a vast south-facing lawn backing onto open countryside. It has been the setting for everything from family football matches to summer gatherings over the years, and still offers endless possibilities for the next owners to make their own memories.

Inside, there's a wonderful balance between character and practicality. The dual-aspect sitting room centres around an impressive inglenook fireplace, while a generous dining and family room provides plenty of space for everyday life and entertaining. In total there are four reception rooms, including a versatile room alongside a downstairs shower room that could equally work as a home office, hobby room or fifth bedroom.

The kitchen offers plenty of storage and connects directly to the impressive 23ft conservatory. Subject to the usual consents, it's easy to see how this space could be reimagined to create a spectacular open-plan kitchen and garden room.

Upstairs are four comfortable bedrooms, all enjoying views across the gardens or the quintessential village street. There's an en-suite bathroom to the guest bedroom, a family shower room and plenty of built-in cupboards and hidden eaves storage throughout.

Brightwell-cum-Sotwell has long been one of South Oxfordshire's most sought-after villages, with its thriving community, excellent pubs, beautiful countryside walks and easy access to Wallingford, Didcot, Oxford and Reading.

Homes like The Street Cottage don't become available very often. Character, space, wonderful gardens and a setting that's been cherished by the same family for three decades make this a very special opportunity.
