The cottage which ‘played’ the home of Geraldine Granger in BBC’s The Vicar of Dibley has gone on sale - for £900k.

Church Cottage starred as the home of the iconic Dawn French character in the fictional Oxfordshire village of Dibley throughout the much-loved comedy series.

But prospective buyers have now been given the chance to own a piece of tv history after the property in the real-life village of Turville, Oxfordshire was put up on the market.

Estate agents Savills said the historic Grade II listed cottage offers “delightful views of the picturesque village and church”.

Property agent Charlie Chavasse said: “Set in the most beautiful picturesque village, a wonderful opportunity to own a piece of TV history.”

The property is accessed from the front, via the grounds of St Mary the Virgin Church and at the rear via School Lane, were there is a car port.

From the kitchen there is access to the cellar. Off the rear of the sitting room via a lobby, is the ground floor bathroom, W.C. and back door. Stairs lead from the sitting room to the first floor.
