A five bedroom carbon neutral home set in a plot of about one third of an acre. The property is located in an Oxfordshire hamlet surrounded by the countryside. This five bedroom home sits within an hour of London by road, with nearby access onto the M40.
Oak Tree Cottage underwent a meticulous conversion in 2015 by the current owners, adhering to the highest specifications while seamlessly blending into the exclusive hamlet's quaint surroundings. Although traditional in appearance, the property boasts exceptional eco-credentials being Carbon Neutral and offers modern finishes. With a high energy rating of B and zero carbon emissions, the residence features Solar PV panels, benefiting from the feed-in tariff scheme, as well as solar hot water and an electronically controlled dual-aspect log burner/boiler supplemented by an off-peak electric boiler for underfloor heating and hot water supply. Full-fibre broadband with Cat5 wiring throughout ensures seamless connectivity in every room.
The accommodation spans two floors, featuring a remarkable open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area. The kitchen is equipped with integrated appliances and sleek Silestone worktops, complemented by a utility room with direct outdoor access. Two additional reception rooms, a cosy TV room and a inviting sitting room, complete the living spaces.
Upstairs, two generously apportioned bedrooms which are large enough to be considered 1-bedroom apartments offer space for families or guests. Each of the bedrooms are designated as master suites, each boasting double walk-in wardrobes and a full en-suite bathroom.
The property is accessed through a gated driveway, leading to the rear where a double garage and ample parking await. An enclosed patio area provides an ideal outdoor retreat, while a large patio adjoins both the family room and lounge, seamlessly extending the living space through bi-fold sliding doors. The wrap-around garden, predominantly laid to lawn with mature shrub borders, offers a private external space to be admired.
Services: Fibre broadband, satellite/terrestrial TV distribution, 4kW solar PV system (£650-700 annual income), solar hot water, wood burner with hot water storage & off-peak electric boiler.
Location: Sought-after Little Haseley village with period properties, church, pub, cricket pitch & Chiltern walks. Golf clubs nearby. Excellent schools in the area. Easy M40 access & Chiltern Railways to London Marylebone.

Stamp duty calculator provided by The Property Hive is intended to provide an estimate of the stamp duty land tax payable on a residential property purchase in England or Northern Ireland. However, the calculator is provided for general information purposes only and should not be relied upon as a substitute for professional legal or tax advice. The actual amount of stamp duty payable may differ from the estimate provided by the calculator, depending on various factors such as the purchase price, the property type, and the buyer's circumstances. Property Hive does not accept any liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of, or reliance upon, the stamp duty calculator. It is recommended that you seek independent legal and tax advice before making any property purchase decisions.
Regulations require that we undertake identity and AML checks, and secure information on the circumstances of your purchase in line with our obligations to verify your identity and complete Customer Due diligence as part of you agreeing any offer with our client. These are dictated by regulation and enforced by trading standards. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks are carried out correctly and for ongoing monitoring, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or made an offer on a property you wish to buy that is provisionally agreeable to our client.
We have looked to provide benefits alongside undertaking these checks to ensure this is not an additional cost to you. These include complementary Lifetime Legal membership for 3 months, and where you use Chancellors Conveyancing services we have also arranged for this cost to include the AML/ Customer due diligence cost your solicitor would normally charge you for their regulated required checks. The cost of these checks is £80 inc VAT, which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee is paid in advance, directly to Lifetime Legal and is non-refundable.
