" THE PROPERTY The lasting impression from the agent's first visit to this house was one of spaciousness - rare for a contemporary family home! The well proportioned accommodation is traditionally laid out around a central hall and cloakroom with stairs that ascend to a generous landing and finish with an attractive turned balustrade. Both the reception rooms enjoy a double aspect that makes the best of the available natural light. The dining kitchen has quality riven slate floor that runs through from the kitchen to the dining area that also benefits from patio doors giving direct access to the part walled garden. In addition to smart floor and wall cabinets, the kitchen has a four ring stainless steel gas hob with double electric oven below and hood above as well as plumbing for an automatic washing machine and 12 place dishwasher. The bright master bedroom has a wood effect floor, stylish bedside pendant lighting and its own private shower room off as well as smart fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom has a capacious over stairs cupboard with hanging rail and there is a further storage in a corner cupboard on the landing. All of the sanitary ware is white and complemented by tiled surrounds and splashbacks.

Outside, the garden is mainly laid to lawn with a wooden deck adjacent to an outside power point. A single garage with up and over door and parking bay to front is to be found just beyond the garden wall (the left hand one of a block of three).

This represents a very attractive investment opportunity. In addition to rent secured until November, the property has the attributes of low maintenance and thermal efficiency associated with modern buildings and Carterton is an 'area of gentrification' with Shilton Park in particular proving a popular alternative to areas such as Madley Park in Witney for both tenants and owner-occupiers. The continued intensive capital investment in the town centre bodes well for this trend to continue. 

SITUATION Carterton is West Oxfordshire's second town and takes its name from William Carter, a director of Homesteads Limited who developed the town in the late nineteenth century. The town became famous for market gardening notably for black grapes and tomatoes- the latter being sold in London's Covent Garden Market. The first airfield was built in the mid thirties and the RAF took over Brize Norton after the departure of the United States Air Force in 1965. The town centre has seen a great deal of development in recent years and now offers a number of large supermarkets, banks and independent retailers and barbers/hairdressers as well as a lending library and numerous eateries. There are five primary schools and several sports clubs positioned around the town.
The sought-after Shilton Park development to the north east of the town is well placed for the A40 linking the dreaming spires of Oxford to the attractions of Cheltenham. It has its own community centre and local shops, country and adventure parks as well as being convenient for a modern leisure centre with swimming pool and gymnasium as well as a large medical centre that has a dentist and dispensing chemist. The town is well served by a modern bus fleet featuring wi-fi. Main line station at Charlbury (c 13 miles - Journey time to Paddington approximately 78 minutes).
