Terraced house to rent in Banbury OX15, 2 Bedroom

Bay Cottage is a charming two bedroom stone cottage located in the popular village of Sibford Ferris. Sibford Ferris Manor House was built in 1666 by Thomas Walford, it was then purchased in 1797 by Joseph Harris, a Quaker, who sold it to the Society of Friends in 1842 to become a school. It is believed that the building, which contains Bay Cottage, was constructed for use as a dormitory for the school. The property was sold in 2001 for re-development into apartments and houses and the access road, Walford Road, was named after the original builder.

Bay Cottage features several period features such as high ceilings and sash windows and provides well-proportioned accommodation throughout. The ground floor comprises of a kitchen/breakfast room with built-in appliances and doors to the garden, a sitting room and cloakroom.

Stairs rise from the entrance hall to the first floor with two double bedrooms and a family bathroom with modern white sanitary ware.

Sibford Ferris and its sister village Sibford Gower are situated on each side of the Sibford Valley in attractive rolling north Oxfordshire countryside.

The villages have a general store/post office, village hall, public house, doctor's surgery and two high performing schools.

More amenities can be found in Hook Norton with the larger centres of Banbury and Chipping Norton close by.

The property can be accessed via large double gates off Main Street or from Walford Road. Steps lead up to the property with a pathway through the garden leading to the main entrance.

The gardens are enclosed and partly laid to lawn with a paved terrace and well stocked floral borders. The property also benefits from use of attractive communal gardens and a courtyard which are all both maintained through the lease and its service charge.
