**Property Description**
Unexpectedly back to the market this Grade II listed thatched cottage located
in Shrivenham has potential to add your own stamp to the property creating a
unique home, which has potential to extend and has planning permission
granted.
**Property Details**
Swiss Cottage was built in C. 1850 as a summer house by Lord Barrington of
Beckett Park, who wanted to replicate the honeymoon accommodation that he had
previously enjoyed in Switzerland. As a result this grade II listed detached,
thatched cottage offers an abundance of original features including cut timber
to brick walls, diamond glazing throughout, a galleried landing and gabled
thatched roofing.
The property includes a private driveway, a well - manicured front garden, an
out - building and a number of sheds.
The cottage is situated within the Vale of the White Horse and is next to what
was known as the Royal Military College of Science.
Uniquely, the Lilliput Lane model 'Woodmans Retreat' is actually based on
Swiss Cottage, and it also features in the 1982 'English Cottages' publication
by Candida Lycett Green.
