Moorhen Close, Marsh Gibbon, OX27

A highly attractive stone-built cottage, traditional in style with a thoughtfully designed modern interior, offering light-filled open-plan living in an idyllic, much-loved village location.

On approach, you�ll notice the newly added oak-framed porch, creating a warm and welcoming first impression. Step inside to find a beautifully refurbished hallway, complete with wood panelling, a built-in bench, and open shelving, combining practicality with charm. The hall opens directly into a spectacular 20ft long, triple-aspect living/dining/kitchen space, flooded with natural daylight. This impressive open-plan area showcases a timeless aesthetic, featuring an exposed brick wall backdrop, engineered oak flooring with underfloor heating, and a stylish kitchen with timber worktops and integrated appliances.

Also on the ground floor is a newly refurbished cloakroom, fitted with a classically styled suite including an oversized sink and panelling in keeping with the cottage character. There�s also scope to create understairs storage should the next owner wish to maximise space further.

Upstairs, the landing is lit by a skylight overhead, bringing in additional natural light. The first room to your left is a generously sized master bedroom featuring an exposed brick wall and plenty of space for freestanding or built-in furniture. A sleek and contemporary 3 piece ensuite with natural stone tiling and shower completes this tranquil retreat.

A second double bedroom to the rear enjoys garden views and excellent proportions, while the third bedroom makes an ideal small double, nursery, or dedicated home office. This room benefits from a newly fitted built-in wardrobe, adding to its flexibility. A recently replaced family bathroom to the front of the house is finished to a luxurious standard with full marble-effect tiling and a walk-in rainhead shower, which is oversized for ease of access.

Outside, the south facing rear garden, landscaped as recently as August 2024, offers a private and peaceful oasis. Designed with both beauty and practicality in mind, it features raised railway sleeper beds, integrated drainage, and multiple electrical points. A raised terrace provides the ideal spot for dining or relaxing, surrounded by spotlights that elegantly illuminate the garden, side path, and front elevation of the house. A gated side access leads to a practical suntrap area, perfect for potted plants or enjoying the morning sun and currently accommodates a well-sized shed and outdoor tap.

To the front, the cottage is set well back from the lane behind a generous lawned garden. The outlook is quintessentially English: a peaceful village lane framed by mature trees, a duck pond, and predominantly stone-built homes.

Marsh Gibbon offers a thriving community with a host of amenities, including a well-stocked shop and post office, a primary school, two welcoming pubs, a Parish Church, and village hall. The village also boasts excellent recreational facilities such as a playground, tennis courts, and cricket and football pitches. For wider amenities, the popular market town of Bicester is just a short drive away.
