Our wonderful lodger is leaving us after a placement year. Charlie would be more than happy to tell you about his time here.
My partner and I live in the wonderful community village, Chalgrove, South East Oxfordshire and are looking for a relaxed lodger to join a friendly couple with a dog and two cats.
We might consider someone with pets subject to discussion and a higher rent to be agreed.
Chalgrove is a great place to live. It would attract someone who enjoys a quiet, rural setting with red kite in the sky, but also those who would enjoy the three lively pubs just a short walk away. We are also a short walk from a range of shops including a post office, two general stores, a delicatessen/florist and a pharmacy.
Our bungalow is like a Tardis, having been extended with a conservatory and large utility. The garden on the corner plot has been landscaped to include a large patio (hot tub comes out in the summer!) and a fishpond (with hungry koi who love being hand fed!) Great place for a bbq serenaded by me and my guitar!
There is a bus which goes from Watlington to the centre of Oxford via Cowley (Brooks uni is a possibility) although to be fair, life would be easier if you have a car. With a car (or motorbike, plenty of space in the garage next to my Triumph!), Chalgrove is within an easy commute of 20 to 30 minutes to places like Headington, Wallingford, Didcot, Culham, Wheatley and Henley. Watlington and Benson are about 10 to 15 minutes away as is the M40, so a relatively easy run to places like High Wycombe and Bicester or for those who need to access West London.
With two driveways, and cornering onto a cul-de-sac, parking is not a problem.
I moved in late 2020 since when I have renovated the house with new kitchen, carpets throughout, got rid of chip paper everywhere and plastered and renewed all paintwork. A new wetroom was finished last year.
If you fancy the sound of this wonderful place to live give me a ring and if things sound about right, come to visit us!
Kind regards,
Vanessa
Ps. We have just recently quit the fags but if you do smoke this is OK but strictly outside.
