A historic home in the heart of Checkendon on a 0.56 acre plot.

Property Oracle says ..

Langtree Cottage is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom property situated in the village of Checkendon, Oxfordshire. This historic home, marketed by Savills, presents a blend of period charm and modern living. Its exposed timber framing creates a striking aesthetic, while a well-maintained garden offers a welcome outdoor space. The property’s location in Checkendon benefits from the tranquility of the countryside while still remaining relatively close to local amenities, schools, and transportation options via Tilehurst and Pangbourne train stations. This is a significant advantage for families or those seeking a more rural lifestyle. However, the interior of Langtree Cottage appears to be in need of modernisation. Carpets, wallpaper, kitchen cabinetry, and bathrooms all appear dated in the provided images. This means a significant investment will be required to update the property to a modern standard. The property also includes outbuildings such as a shed and greenhouse, which could be of value to potential buyers seeking additional storage or outdoor workspace. In summary, Langtree Cottage presents both opportunities and challenges. Buyers should carefully assess the renovation costs and weigh them against the property’s inherent period features and desirable village setting.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. Disclamer: This is our opition and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research.
