GREAT MILTON Situated in the attractive and highly regarded village of Great Milton c. 8 miles south east of Oxford and c. 7 miles west of Thame. Great Milton itself is right at the top of many buyers' wish lists. With its own pub and highly regarded local primary school, the village is both rural and full of life.
Incredibly well connected, Great Milton has its own bus service into Oxford, is just five minutes from junction 7 on the M40 and trains from nearby Haddenham and Thame will take you into London in just over half an hour. There is also a first-class range of independent and preparatory schools in the area.
HONEYSUCKLE COTTAGE Honeysuckle Cottage is a stunning and much loved home full of character and charm, believed to date back to the late 17th century, neatly tucked back from the lane behind a low stone wall in the highly sought after village of Great Milton. This house is beautifully presented throughout, offers generous square footage and plenty of flexible living space. It is a short walk from the popular local pub (The Bull) as well as the well regarded village primary school. Great Milton itself is home to Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons, the renowned luxury Michelin starred hotel and restaurant. The village is surrounded by gorgeous countryside walks but is only moments from junction 7 of the M40. Fast trains from nearby Haddenham and Thame Parkway will get you into the capital in three quarters of an hour and the historic city of Oxford is only 8 miles away.
The accommodation includes a bespoke fitted kitchen complete with kitchen island, gas-fired Aga, electric oven and gas hob. The kitchen flows seamlessly through to the newly built light and airy triple aspect orangery overlooking the delightful garden. This stunning room offers plenty of space for a large dining table, creating a sociable area ideal for both family living and entertaining with French doors opening out onto the garden. A keen gardener would much enjoy the generous south facing walled garden, which is complete with paved terrace perfect for al fresco dining.
Adjoining the kitchen is a charming sitting room with wood burning stove and exposed beams. Snug and cosy but with plenty of space, this is a room to enjoy on a cold winter's night or with the sun streaming through the French doors, which open out onto the garden. Beyond the sitting room at the far end of the house, there is a 2nd reception space, flexible in purpose it is currently set up as a snug. Through the side entrance, at the opposite end of the house there is also a utility room neatly tucked away beside the ground floor guest cloakroom/shower room.
As if one staircase wasn't enough, Honeysuckle Cottage offers a choice of two which lead you upstairs, where this country cottage continues to wow. There are four characterful bedrooms of varying sizes with generous vaulted ceilings and a family bathroom. Beams abound and the floor is light and warm underfoot. As throughout the rest of the property, the bedrooms and the bathroom are immaculately presented.
And then there's the outside space…which along with the generous lawned garden includes driveway parking, double garaging and an adjoining home office/gym.
Honeysuckle Cottage is a fabulous home in the country, commutable to London and is ideal for families, upsizers, downsizers and weekenders alike.
