Description
A distinctive detached period property listed grade II comprising a delightful barn conversion offering beautifully crafted split-level character accommodation together with an attached barn that for many years has been used as a carpentry and joinery workshop offering a further 3000 ft.² of accommodation which has been residentially consented under planning application P 25 S1413/FUL to provide five further bedrooms, together with a statement (living space over 30 m in length).
An additional detatched outbuilding offers over 1000 ft.² of additional storage/garage space.
Carpenters Cottage has a central courtyard with the entire site extending to approximately one third of an acre. The property is approached from a gravel lane off the village High Street and adjoins the village church right in the heart of this pretty Thameside village.
This unique property offers a rare opportunity to provide a wonderful character home either as one large property or if desired something for dual generational occupation. Of course the option to continue to use Carpenters Cottage as a residential cottage with business premises on site remains.
Long Wittenham is a pretty and popular Thameside village situated between Abingdon and Didcot both approximately 3 miles away. Facilities within the village include a thriving pub (The Plough) and busy pub restaurant (The Vine). Other facilities include village primary school and pretty church. There are some lovely walks through the village alongside the river or towards Little Wittenham and Wittenham Clumps. A wide choice of local shopping is available at the historic market towns of Abingdon and Wallingford or alternatively at Didcot with its recently enlarged shopping centre multiplex cinema and Didcot Parkway which offers fast access to London Paddington in 40 mins. The village offers good road links from either Didcot or Abingdon to the A34 and on to both the M4 and M40 motorways.
