2 Bedroom Detached House For Sale
Steeple Aston is an ancient settlement with roots going back to Roman times, maybe earlier. The village has its own shop and Post Office (a couple of minutes' walk), a popular pub, a primary school dating back nearly 400 years, and a 1000 year old church. The community is enthusiastic and vibrant with activities ranging from amateur to professional theatre to more outdoor pursuits like football and cricket. Designated a conservation area in 1988 it is set in glorious surroundings with the river Cherwell running through the valley. It is also well placed for commuting by road or rail to Oxford, London and Birmingham. A short commute to Bicester North and 47 minutes later you will arrive at Marylebone Station, making Jasmine Cottage an ideal retreat where you can recharge your mind and body.
Cottages like this pretty much represent why we are agents. The old adage "if walls could talk" is so applicable here. Jasmine Cottage's history dates back many hundreds of years, to around the 16th century but it could well be older. Exposed beams, traditional stone walls, open fires - it's all reminiscent of fairy tales. You are the custodian of something a bit precious. Not only that, it's SO private and discreet that initially you can miss it on the way by. And with the delightful church opposite, allotments nearby, plus a wonderful shop/ PO, pub and great school nearby this cottage is located in one of the best villages in the area.
