If you’re searching for your own Cotswold idyll then you’ll be pleased to know this double-fronted stone cottage is now for sale in Kingham, Chipping Norton — and it boasts the most delightful garden.
Set back from the street, the charming home on West Street is unoccupied and unfurnished, making it perfect for new owners to move in straight away.
The attraction of a stone cottage in this beautiful countryside is hard to resist. The ground floor features an entrance hall with a deep under-stair cupboard, a sitting room with a large central fireplace inset with a log-burning stove, and a second reception room which is currently used as a study. Each room provides a blank canvas — ideal if you want to put your own stamp on it.
Elsewhere, the well-fitted kitchen maxes out every inch of space. It might be small, but we love the full range of units in clean white with integrated appliances, wooden worktops, and adjoining garden/dining room designed with entertaining in mind.
The cosy and characterful bedrooms have heaps of potential. There are two upstairs, as well as spacious bathroom with a beautiful roll-top bath, WC and sink, and a completely separate cloakroom.

We’ve saved the best until last, because the cottage garden really is the star of the show. Well-stocked with a variety of mature plants, flowers and shrubs, it includes a meandering path up to the summerhouse, a raised decking area (the ultimate garden party setting), and a brick outhouse for additional storage. The garden can also be accessed from a right of way from the street over the neighbouring gardens.
Nestled in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the ancient village of Kingham dates back to Saxon times and was even recorded in the Doomsday Book. Now a thriving community, new owners can enjoy the two village pubs, the 13th century church, Daylesford organic food shop, and Soho Farmhouse — less than half an hour’s drive away.
Want to make this your home? The cottage is currently on the market with Knight Frank for £625,000.
