Wilcote View, North Leigh, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX29

THE PROPERTY: Don’t be fooled by the neat but conventional façade of this property – what lies behind is truly extraordinary! Step inside to a vast L-shaped hallway with its striking mid-century open tread staircase. You will be led to the showpiece of the home: a triple-aspect vaulted living room, flooded with natural light and offering sweeping views across the picturesque Evenlode Valley. This grand space is enhanced by a gas-fired 'log burner' and patio doors that open onto an elevated deck, providing further opportunities to enjoy the idyllic pastoral scenery. The kitchen sits at the heart of the property. Adjacent is a spacious utility/boot room, which in turn leads to an oversized double garage, complete with light and power. Those seeking flexible living arrangements will be particularly drawn to the southeastern corner of the property, where a suite of rooms with its own entrance could serve as an annex or a home workspace, perfect for consulting, guest or dependent relative accommodation. The original drawing room, currently used as a formal dining room by the present owners, retains its open fireplace, adding to the home's appeal. The main bedroom is quietly situated to the rear, with a large picture window framing breathtaking views that are sure to be the most beautiful wake-up call. A well-appointed bathroom, featuring a wet room area, completes the ground floor accommodation and, together with step-free access to the garden, makes this home wheelchair-friendly. Upstairs, you’ll find two further bedrooms, one of which offers a delightful secret door leading to a walk-in storage area. A shower room featuring a retro sky-blue suite with original period tile splashbacks adds a touch of nostalgia to this level. The property is approached via a driveway with a turning area that provides additional parking. The main garden lies to the west of the house and is accessed from a raised deck – the perfect spot to relax and soak up the sun while enjoying the exceptional views. The garden itself is mainly laid to lawn, with mature hedging ensuring a high degree of privacy. A separate kitchen garden with raised beds lies beyond offering added appeal to those with green fingers. Benefiting from sealed unit double glazing and gas central heating, this home has been lovingly maintained and is now ready for redesign and extension (subject to planning consents). Offered chain-free, with early vacant possession available. Local Authority: West Oxfordshire District Council (Tax band F). We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £60 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks.
