ACH-NA-GRIAN Tucked away in a delightful setting on the edge of the sought-after village of Great Milton, Ach-Na-Grian is a charming detached stone and thatched cottage with views across adjoining farmland towards Great Haseley Windmill. Its name, derived from Scottish Gaelic, translates as 'Field of the Sun' or 'Sunny Field', a particularly fitting name given its south-facing garden and attractive countryside setting.
Believed to date from around 1500, the cottage has been a much-loved family home for many years. Now requiring substantial modernisation and refurbishment throughout, the property presents an exciting opportunity for a purchaser to restore and enhance this characterful home, with potential for further extension, subject to the necessary planning consents. The cottage is not listed and is offered for sale with no onward chain.
A conservatory-style entrance porch opens into the sitting room, with exposed ceiling beams and a stone inglenook fireplace. Windows overlook the garden and a staircase leads to the first floor.
The kitchen/breakfast room enjoys a triple aspect, with potential views across the surrounding countryside.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a double aspect, whilst the second bedroom leads, via a few steps, to the third bedroom, which also benefits from a double aspect.
The generous south-facing garden is a particularly appealing feature of the property. Adjoining open farmland and enclosed by established trees and hedging, it enjoys a peaceful and secluded setting, with mature planted borders, apple trees and views across the surrounding countryside.
A driveway provides off-road parking and access to the single garage. A separate stone outbuilding beneath a tiled roof, together with an adjoining lean-to store, offers useful additional storage or workshop space.
Whilst Ach-Na-Grian requires significant investment and improvement, its tucked-away position, generous garden, attractive countryside outlook and considerable potential make it a rare opportunity to create a wonderful home in one of South Oxfordshire's most desirable villages.
