Homes of this calibre are rare and seldom come available.

Held within the same family for nearly a century, The Nest is a wonderfully authentic English village cottage positioned towards the upper end of Steeple Aston—one of North Oxfordshire’s thriving rural communities on the edge of the Cotswolds. Quietly tucked away yet central to the village, the property offers charm, history, and an exceptional garden setting.

Believed to have originated as two cottages, the house has gently evolved over time into a warm and characterful home. Traditional stonework, fireplaces, window seat, four panel doors, pine panelling and the unusual dual staircases all speak to its heritage, while generous windows and well arranged rooms provide an immediate sense of comfort and familiarity.

The gardens are a standout feature. Beautifully tended and arranged across two tiers, they create a rare combination of openness and privacy. The upper garden offers lawn, established planting and space for outdoor entertaining. Stone steps lead to a more secluded lower garden—a peaceful, almost hidden area that hints at the site’s earlier life and offers further opportunity for planting, relaxation or quiet enjoyment.

The Nest represents an increasingly uncommon opportunity: a much loved village cottage, rich in character, with beautiful gardens and a history rarely found in homes brought to market today.

In all about 0.13 acres.
