Perry Bishop is thrilled to present this unique opportunity in the sought-after village of Shellingford. Our client, the owner of Jackson's Cottage, has obtained planning permission for the construction of two additional attached dwellings. The complete site includes Jackson Cottage, which is ready for refurbishment and would be transformed into a charming two-bedroom mid-terrace, following the removal of its existing extension. Plot 1 will feature a newly built two-bedroom mid-terrace, while Plot 2 will become a three-bedroom end terrace. Each property boasts spacious, south-facing gardens with breath taking countryside views and convenient off-road parking.

Location

Shellingford is a village about 2.5 miles south-east of Faringdon in the Vale of White Horse. There is a parish church, St Faith's, and a Church of England primary school.

The historic market town of Faringdon, dating back at least to the 12th century, has a thriving community and amenities such as the Leisure Centre, Library, Faringdon Community College, The Elms and Folly View primary schools, as well as The Old Station Nursery, doctors' and dentists' surgeries. Buses travel from the town to private schools at Abingdon. The town now boasts three large supermarkets.

Faringdon is also ideally positioned for the A420, leading to the A34, M40 and M4 and mainline railway services from Swindon, Oxford, Oxford Parkway and Didcot Parkway. There is a frequent bus service through the town from Swindon to Oxford and back, linking to rail services and airports.

The Tower on Folly Hill was built by Lord Berners in 1935 and affords panoramic views across four counties. For over 20 years, the town has been twinned with Le Mêle-sur-Sarthe in France and from 2022 with Königstein im Taunus in Germany. In 2004, Faringdon became the first Fairtrade town in the South East of England.
