Description

Situated on the outskirts of the village with views to open farmland to the front, a modern detached family home built to a high energy saving specification by the current owner.

The accommodation comprises a cloakroom, living room with large window to the front, separate dining room and further access to a conservatory.

The kitchen/breakfast room has a range of eye and base level units with oak worksurfaces, integral appliances which include a dishwasher, fridge freezer, oven and combi oven, 4 ring gas hob and extractor.

To the first floor there are three double bedrooms with the master bedroom benefitting from an ensuite shower room and a further family bathroom. Bedroom three has been planned, so that if four bedrooms are required there is a relatively straight forward solution.

The property is approached via gated access and a pathway with side access to the rear garden. The front garden has a deep filled flower and shrub border behind an established hedge.

To the side there is a storage shed and garden store with further gated access to the side. The rear garden is enclosed by fencing and has a small water feature, an artificial lawned area and patio. There is a further covered area that would make an ideal storage area or possible carport area. A driveway provides access to parking to the rear.

Completed in 2010 by the current owner with particular attention being paid to the energy performance of the property. The client has used 50mm Thickness Celotex Insulation Sheet to insulate the external walls whilst maintaining a 50mm cavity. The property has a Vaillant Eco Tec plus Condensing gas fired wall mounted boiler which provides domestic hot water and heating. Hot water is via a Megaflow tank.

The ground floor has under floor heating with independent zones to each room. All internal doors are solid oak faced panel doors, the staircase is also oak.


Charlton is a sought after village on the Oxfordshire/Northamptonshire borders with a range of amenities including a post office/village store, primary school, public house and church.

Train services to London Marylebone are available from Kings Sutton (approx. 2 miles away) and Banbury and Bicester North. Schooling within the village includes pre-school and primary, with popular independent prep schools of Winchester House in Brackley, Beechborough in Westbury and Cardus in Overthorpe, all within an approx. 10 minute drive.

  • Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
