3 Bed Semi-Detached House, The Street, OX10

Welcome to our delightful property, nestled in the charming village of Ewelme, overlooking the picturesque and historic village pond, called the 'King's Pool' in Oxfordshire. 

While entering the inviting property, you will first step into the entrance hall, where you'll find convenient access to a downstairs loo, the stairs leading to the upper floor, a built-in shoe rack, and the cozy, but spacious, lounge.

The Lounge is a perfect place for unwinding by the wood burner and, due to its size, is a wonderful social space to gather with friends or family. The newly updated kitchen features a rustic reclaimed brick wall, floor to ceiling windows, and bi-folding doors opening to the rear garden, creating a feeling of character and, during the warmer months, bringing the outside in. The worktop is a beautiful quartz stone, which surrounds an induction hob for easy cooking and a large Belfast sink. There is ample storage, along with a built in fridge, freezer and wine rack, making sure that you're always prepared. 

The property has three bedrooms, which include two doubles and a single, with an ensuite bathroom attached to the larger of the three. The master bedroom is also home to newly fitted, built-in wardrobes, made by Sharps, which include two large floor to ceiling mirrored sliding doors, opening to double hanging rails in each, and in the centre, a sliding door opening to ample shelving and three generous shoe racks.  

All three bedrooms are flooded with natural light, and the floors are wood veneered luxury vinyl tile throughout, allowing each room, including the hallway, to feel exceptionally spacious and airy. The bathroom is also recently refurbished and stylishly designed, featuring a sought-after claw-foot bath, and a curtain rail, allowing for the added option to shower overhead. 

Outside, the private rear garden includes a large wrap-around decking area, which acts as a sun-trap in the summer, allowing for extra entertaining space and cozy nights under the stars. The garden also boasts a pattern tiled patio area in the corner of the garden, under a twisting rowan tree, giving you that much needed relief in the shade after sunbathing, and providing a perfect spot for al fresco dining. The garden also includes a well maintained lawn and a stone pathway leading to the garden shed, which is home to the washing machine, along with a clothes rack attached to the garden wall for air drying outside during warmer days.

Ewelme is a quintessentially English village, immersed by the Oxfordshire countryside, which was once used as King Henry VIII's hunting grounds. After his hunts in Ewelme's surrounding fields, he would bathe in the King's Pool, just a few feet from the property's front door. Ewelme has a rich history of landmarks such as, the Grade I listed church of St. Mary, the medieval Ewelme Almshouses, and Ewelme Manor, which King Henry's wives, Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard would visit, and where King Henry VIII stayed during his hunting trips. After Henry VIII's death, Ewelme Manor was granted, by Edward VI, to his sister, Queen Elizabeth I, who visited the Manor with her beau, Robert Dudley.

Ewelme is also home to the "oldest continuously functioning school building" in the country, established in 1437, and is still an active school today. The village also provides essential amenities, including a village shop, a cozy pub, and scenic walking routes in the surrounding countryside.

For outdoor enthusiasts, Ewelme is strategically positioned to enjoy a variety of activities. The cottage, being nestled in the Chiltern Hills, provides scenic walking trails, and the River Thames allows for boating and fishing opportunities. Our three-bedroom characterful and stylish property, in the heart of Ewelme, offers a unique chance to immerse yourself in the charm of village life.
