UPPERTON Upperton is a peaceful hamlet, which lies at the foot of the Chiltern Hills, approximately 18 miles south east of Oxford. Local shopping facilities can be found in the nearby market towns of Watlington, Benson, Wallingford and Thame. Upperton together with the neighbouring village of Brightwell Baldwin are very conveniently placed just 5 miles from J6 of the M40, providing excellent access to Central London, Heathrow and the national motorway network. There is a main line rail service from Princes Risborough (11 miles) to London Marylebone or at Cholsey (7 miles) to London Paddington. Local schooling is excellent and both Watlington Primary school and Rainbow Corner day nursery and pre-school have an 'outstanding' Ofsted rating. Senior education is provided by the well-regarded Icknield Community College. There are numerous public footpaths and bridleways in the Chilterns countryside.
5 NORTON COTTAGES 5 Norton Cottages is a fantastic five bedroom family home with spacious accommodation, separate home office/games room, garden, off road parking and quiet countryside location. Brightwell Upperton is a little known hamlet just two and a half miles from Watlington (often topping the list of most popular places to live in Oxfordshire) and surrounded by wonderful countryside walks to pretty pubs. The M40 is just 10 minutes drive away and Oxford city centre within easy reach.
Down countryside lanes and past open fields sits the peaceful hamlet of Brightwell Upperton. Set back from the lane, opposite the village recreation ground and with fields beyond, you'll find Norton Cottages. Parking for this small row of red brick semi-detached homes is actually around the back via a separate lane, making the generous front gardens a useful and useable addition to the homes. Through the front door and you'll find an extremely large lounge to the left. Spanning the full depth of the property, this room is very generous with attractive modern wooden flooring and woodburning stove.
On the right of the property is the vast open plan kitchen diner with plenty of space to fit all the family (and more) around the table. The kitchen is modern and well designed with plenty of storage, an attractive curved breakfast bar and wooden worktops. There are views at the rear out over the lovely garden and a velux window lets in lots of light into this practical and well put together space. A spacious utility room also leads off the kitchen, a big selling point for a busy family.
Upstairs, the feeling of comfort and space continues with five bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from its own nicely fitted ensuite and there are TWO further fully fitted bathrooms, one on the first floor and one in the large attic conversion.
Outside, the garden is a good size, a patio area at the rear with wisteria growing overhead creates a natural shady spot to enjoy relaxing in the sunshine. The garden is part lawned with well tended borders and shrubs and plenty of space to both play and to sit. Follow the path through the grass and you'll find an exceptional 'hidden bonus' - a large, converted garage which is currently used as a games room and separate, spacious home office. A truly fantastic conversion, this outbuilding has a vaulted ceiling and wooden flooring throughout. The perfect 'work from home' solution, annexe for guests or a super playroom for kids as they get older.
