An English country cottage on sale for £1million looks traditional from the front but hides a surprising secret.
At first glance Little Thatch in East Hagbourne near Didcot, looks like a quintessential thatched cottage.
But despite initial appearances it is actually a new build home, only constructed in 2011.
Charles Elsmore-Wickens, head of Savills residential sales office in Summertown, Oxford, said it offered the best of both worlds to buyers who want the look of a period property but all the modern comforts.
He said: "It has been designed and built with exceptional care and attention to detail, resulting in a home that exudes character and charm, while also being tailor-made for contemporary living."
On sale for £995,000, an added bonus of the property is the studio which is currently used as a home office, and includes a kitchenette, shower room and mezzanine floor.
A brook also babbles through the garden with a sundeck bridge.
East Hagbourne has a pub and shop and good transport links to Oxford and London from nearby Didcot Parkway station.
