NO ONWARD CHAIN - Slaymaker is a delightful Grade II listed thatched cottage believed to date from the 17th century. 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.
LAND - The paddock situated at the rear of the cottage measures around 4 acres in total and enjoys its own separate access from the road. There is a large barn/store building on site as well as stables.
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.
