NO ONWARD CHAIN - Slaymaker is a delightful Grade II listed thatched cottage believed to date from the 17th century. Very well presented, this lovely home retains so much of its original charm and character with exposed stone fireplaces and a wealth of exposed beams throughout.
Once two separate cottages, the property is now arranged as a well-proportioned three bedroomed home with a self-contained one bedroomed ground-floor annex perfect for guest accommodation or, with the popularity of AirBNB, as a source of income. Of course, it would be a simple task to incorporate the annex into the main house and the result would be a spacious family home.
Accessed from the village road via gates which open onto a private gravelled driveway, Slaymaker is set well back from the road behind a pretty cottage-style garden laid to lawn with mature flower borders and shrubs. The paved patio area at the rear is accessed from the kitchen/dining area via a set of French doors and enjoys beautiful far reaching open views surrounding the cottage.
LOCATIONSlaymaker enjoys a stunning rural setting and yet with the nearby A40 giving access to Oxford and junction 8 of the M40 just a 10 minute drive away, it is also very well positioned for those needing to drive to London, Birmingham or beyond.
The neighbouring village of Wheatley is a thriving community retaining an excellent range of shops and facilities making it a genuinely working village. Families are well catered for with nurseries as well as primary and secondary schools. Shops include convenience stores, butcher, bakery, coffee shop, post-office/gift shop, pharmacy and antique shop. There is also a doctors surgery, dentist, hairdressers and complimentary therapy clinic too.
The public transport links are excellent with bus services providing regular access to Oxford, Thame and Aylesbury. Haddenham & Thame Parkway is just 10 miles away (London Marylebone approximately 45 minutes) and buses to London depart from the Thornhill Park & Ride just 3 miles away.
