Kinecroft • 400 years ago the property now known as Kinecroft was a dairy, converted, over the years, into a light and enchanting period home of immense character and comfort. • There are four bedrooms in the house, one of which is the extraordinary cruck-beam master bedroom occupying, with its ensuites (including walk-in wardrobe), the whole of the 1st floor. • On the ground floor you enter the property via a Gothic revival door into an impressive and spacious sitting room with a stone period fireplace, Gothic arches and high oak beams. • This leads, on the one hand, to an ingeniously designed, good-sized modern kitchen/dining room and on the other, to a vaulted office, complete with mezzanine floor, which faces onto the garden. • Three further bedrooms also face directly onto the rear garden, which is a haven for birds. • The property is exceptionally quiet, being hidden down a long drive off the main part of Church Street and set behind and protected by, other period properties that front the road. • Down a second drive the property has a garage which could be converted - subject to planning consent and building regulations - and the property also has ample off-road parking for several cars on the shingle driveway. • The totally enclosed stone-walled and hardwood decked Japanese rear garden boasts old stone paving, an Elizabethan stone monument, mature trees and a cedar-wood hot-tub. • You can join the Thameside path along one of its loveliest stretches just yards away from the house. Three excellent food pubs are all within 5 minutes’ walk. Didcot station is an easy cycle ride away.
