A Grade II listed cottage in an exceptional private setting at the end of Digberry Lane, with nearly three acres of mature grounds and considerable potential. Situated in an enviable position at the end of Digberry Lane, this Grade II listed cottage occupies a wonderfully private setting on the edge of the Chiltern Hills, with grounds extending to nearly three acres and adjoining open farmland. The original cottage was extensively enlarged and remodelled during the 1950s and today provides accommodation arranged around three reception rooms, together with three bedrooms. While the property has considerable charm as it stands, its potential is immediately apparent, offering an exciting opportunity, subject to the necessary planning permissions and listed building consents. The gardens and grounds are the standout feature of the property and were extensively landscaped at around the same time as the house was enlarged. Now mature and well established, they are divided into a number of distinct areas, with large expanses of lawn bordered and screened by mature trees and hedging. Within the grounds are a disused swimming pool and former tennis court, both offering further potential for restoration or alternative use. The gardens adjoin neighbouring farmland, creating a particularly peaceful and secluded setting. There may also be scope, through careful management of the existing trees and landscaping, to open up far-reaching views across the surrounding South Oxfordshire countryside. Overall, the property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a period home in an exceptional rural setting, with substantial grounds and considerable potential to create a very special country property.
