Property description

Situated in a rural location in the highly desirable village of Berrick Salome, Plough Cottage has views over open farmland to the front and has a mature cottage garden followed by an organic vegetable area leading onto a well stocked orchard surrounded by open fields. In total the plot extends to almost one and a half acres. Dating back to circa 1750`s the property has been improved yet keeps much of the charm and character of the period with open beams, wooden flooring and fireplaces. There are three wood burning stoves. The majority of downstairs has quarry tiled floors and stripped latched doors.
What It Offers:
Accommodation includes a farmhouse style kitchen with Rayburn and several utility areas (including a pantry with marble slab also a boot room). The downstairs has two main reception areas with further accommodation over two levels with an open plan study area and two bedrooms served by a first floor bathroom and a further 24`9ft bedroom on the top floor with its own en-suite. A sweeping gravelled area leads to the cottage garden and large patio. There has also been the recent addition of a two car carport in keeping with the character of the main building. There are further out-buildings currently used as workshops plus two large greenhouses. On mains drainage.
SITUATION:
Berrick Salome is a very sought after quiet village well away from main roads and has a public house, a church and a nice community atmosphere. There are plenty of country walks surrounding the village together with fields and equestrian facilities. The larger villages of Benson and Watlington are within a short drive with the market town of Wallingford just under 5 miles away and offer a comprehensive range of shops and facilities. The river Thames is about a 10 minute drive away where there is a marina and waterfront cafe.
