Gullicote Lane, Hanwell, OX17

This charming three-bedroom home forms part of a small and highly sought-after enclave of just four characterful properties, set within the unspoilt village of Hanwell, to the north of Banbury. Dating back to the 1800s, the property was thoughtfully converted in the early to mid-1980s and has since been maintained by the present vendor in recent years, creating a well-balanced home designed with modern living in mind.

The accommodation is well laid out and presented in good condition throughout. While some buyers may wish to update certain elements to their own taste, the property is very much move-in ready and offers an excellent opportunity to add further value or extend, subject to the necessary planning permissions, as neighbouring homes and others within the village have successfully done.

The sitting room benefits from a feature fireplace, providing a warm and inviting focal point, while the principal bedroom enjoys the advantage of an en-suite. Calor gas central heating is installed, with the boiler having been regularly maintained. Throughout the house feature locally made hand crafted, lockable double glazed wood windows installed in 2015

Externally, the property is notably private and enjoys a generous rear garden, beautifully stocked with a variety of established plants, creating a mature and attractive outdoor space. To the front, there is driveway parking for two in front of the double garage, which is equipped with both light and power. The boiler was replaced in December 2024. The driveway is shared with the neighbouring cottage and is jointly maintained. The cottage was originally a barn and was converted in 1983 by Messenger Builders, and the current family have owned from new.

Hanwell is a particularly desirable village location, offering convenient access to the M40 (J11) and regular rail services from Banbury to London Marylebone. Nearby points of interest include Soho Farmhouse, Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick and Leamington Spa, while shopping and leisure amenities can be found at Banbury’s Castle Quay and Gateway Retail Park.

Offered to the market with no onward chain, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful yet practical home in one of Oxfordshire’s most appealing village settings.
