Location
The small South Oxfordshire village of North Stoke occupies a tranquil setting by the River Thames,
just downstream from the historic old market town of Wallingford which was granted a Charter by
Henry II in the mid 14 th century.
Over the years the village has seen little intrusive development, retaining much of its original peaceful
charm, benefiting greatly by being set off the B4009 away from all through traffic. The main village street
and is in effect a cul-de-sac containing many period cottages and houses of differing architectural styles
and character, some dating back to the 16 th century, all contributing to the overall appeal and heritage of
the village. The Parish Church dates back to the 13 th century and boasts a Jacobean pulpit and 14 th
century wall paintings.
The historic Ridgeway Path runs through the centre of the village, having followed a route along the
banks of the Thames from Goring continuing its journey up onto the Chilterns. The immediate local area
has numerous footpaths and bridleways through the scenic surrounding countryside. On the fringe of the
village is the notable luxury 4-star Springs Hotel, set in extensive ‘park like’ grounds overlooking a
private lake and now having a highly regarded and established golf course which can easily be accessed
on foot from the end of the village street.
The peaceful nature of the village belies its close proximity to an excellent road network, linking with the
M4 and M40 motorways. For rail commuters there are stations at Goring on Thames and Cholsey, both
of which provide fast and regular services to Oxford, Reading and London (Paddington).

The Property
Willow Cottage is a most appealing ‘Colonial Style’ detached cottage only recently having been built in
2003 by master builder ‘Boshers’ to an exacting standard having whitened timber elevations under a
pitched Slate tile roof with whitened timber dormers on two sides, combining both character features
with complimentary modern fixture and fittings.
The property is both light and spacious affording well proportioned accommodation and set in delightful
mature grounds that surround the property on all sides.
It is thought the property could be altered internally between bedroom one and the walk in
wardrobe/playroom to suite individual requirements, potential forming a 4 th bedroom, subject to any
relevant permissions being obtained.
