Woodstock3 bedroom house for sale

Dating back to the 18th century, this charming stone-built Grade II listed cottage occupies a delightful plot flanking the grounds of Blenheim Palace, one of Britain's most finest World Heritage sites.

The largest of three, the property is steeped in character whilst having relevance to contemporary living with sensitive modern-day interventions. Accommodation is deceptively generous and laid out over three floors with the addition of a recently updated cellar. The ground floor comprises a welcoming sitting room with cosy log burning stove and a bright and practically laid out kitchen/dining room with conservatory to the rear. The original wooden staircase leads up to the first floor which offers two bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the master bedroom and office/dressing room occupying the second floor.

A beautifully maintained pretty cottage garden lies at the front of the property with a smaller courtyard garden at the rear.
