Approached via the path that leads from Newton Square to the Church, the property comprises an entrance hall, a sitting/dining room with under-stair storage and a delightful stone inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove. The kitchen retains its original fireplace and bread oven, fitted units, a double oven, halogen hob, and space for a fridge and freezer. A stable door opens into the conservatory, which gives accerss to the garden and outbuildings.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, all served by a family bathroom with a bath and electric shower over. From the rear bedroom, there are lovely views across the garden to the wooded hills beyond.
Outside, leading off the conservatory, is a paved patio area with a store room and outside WC. Beyond this lies the attractive walled lawned garden, providing a private and peaceful space in the heart of Bampton.
There is a right of way for Mary Fox’s House from the courtyard area, through a door and passage, giving convenient side access from Newton Square.
