***Three bed bungalow, PLUS planning granted for second dwelling, PLUS paddock*** Around an acre of land with existing bungalow, stabling & garage, plus permission granted for a second detached dwelling with new garage, PLUS paddock land with separate entrance. NO CHAIN

Fritwell is a pretty village dating back to before the Norman Conquest. For a village of less than 500 inhabitants it is fortunate to have a post office and shop plus an award-winning butchers, a Village Hall for community and private events, two churches and a playing field with play and multi-sports areas for children, plus there is a great C of E first school - an unusual level of amenities for a village of this size. And within just a few mile radius there are masses of other amenities including several really lovely pubs. Its access is also excellent with the M40 nearby and Bicester rail station to London less than 6 miles away - with a service to Marylebone as fast as 40 minutes. This combined with its situation amid some of the prettiest countryside makes it a great place to live.

Homelea was built in the 1930s and has been in our clients' family for many decades, but is now no longer required. With the position of the bungalow so far to the edge off the plot it made huge sense to investigate the potential for a further dwelling, and resultant permission granted means the site will be much better utilised without either property ever feeling crowded. The position in this village and on this lane also ensures both houses have lovely views and ample space. If anything, the only slight conundrum is the paddock! It can be retained by either house as there is a choice of entrance options.

A basic tour of the site runs thus. The whole plot is wide, with the bungalow situated on the very edge of the boundary to the left-hand side. It has a driveway offering ample space for a number of vehicles, with a garage situated just behind the existing house. From the front entrance, doors open respectively into a generous bedroom with wardrobes and a box bay window on the left, and a living room with that same style of box bay window on the right.

Behind the living room is a good sized, fully fitted kitchen/diner with space for a table. This room also links through to another bedroom on the left, plus there's a connecting door back to the first bedroom here described. A rear hall from the kitchen head to the final bedroom, another of a good size, with a shower room adjacent.

The plans created suggest the area between bungalow and new house would be garden for the bungalow. The new dwelling would be situated to the right side of the plot, with a pleasant, lawned front garden, and a driveway to the right leading to a garage at the rear, with garden between the two. A classic double-fronted design combined with traditional materials make it a very pretty house.

Inside, a stairway rises ahead. To the right, the living room is double aspect with the rear featuring bifolding doors to open out to the garden. Opposite, the dining room enjoys the charming view of the pretty lane to the front. From the hall, past a downstairs toilet, the kitchen offers an open-plan day space with more bifolding doors opening onto that same terrace. Upstairs, three ample bedrooms take advantage of pretty views in either direction, with the principle room also featuring an ensuite.

The paddock land to the rear is a good size, quite flat and well drained. It is enclosed by a mix of fencing and hedgerow, with nothing surrounding it bar open land. There is currently an access from the main plot just next to the stables, with a separate access in from the lane on the other side of the neighbouring property to the right.
