Striking Victorian home in sought after village.
Understood to date back to pre-1900, The Old Bakery is a striking Victorian home, set in a private and elevated position within the popular village of Hook Norton. Combining a delightful blend of character charm with modern living, the property has been sympathetically enhanced and maintained by the current owners over the last ten years.
Upon entering, the ground floor comprises a drawing room, sitting room, dining room, kitchen with separate utility area, downstairs cloakroom, and cellar. The delightful Victorian style architecture can be seen in the main reception rooms featuring high ceilings and expansive bay and sash windows throughout, flooding each room with natural light, enhancing the generous and elegant proportions. The kitchen/ breakfast room to the rear of the property is spacious with a lovely aspect of the garden, cooking appliances, plenty of work surface and units and even room for a table, making it a great social space and hub of the home. There is also access to a useful utility area, and the cellar is a handy space for extra storage if necessary.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a modern family bathroom. The principal bedroom has been modified and redesigned to maximise its potential, now creating a generous bedroom with triple aspect, along with a spacious dressing area and en suite bathroom. In addition, there are two further double bedrooms, one of which has a walk-in wardrobe and cupboard space.
Outside is charming. A mature wrap around garden can be enjoyed by admiring the pretty landscape. Private with its tall hedge borders and low maintenance, the trees, flowerbeds, lawn, and patio areas can be appreciated in the sun and are perfect for summer entertaining. There is also a gateway and steps leading to the front of the property, and a gate to the rear of the property where you can access the double garage and off road parking.

I think The Old Bakery is the best of both worlds. I love how it is so private in its own plot yet embraces the vibrant village of Hook Norton. I think it is a charming home with lots to offer.
