A unique family home set in castle grounds
Description
The Coach House is a charming family semi-detached house in a unique position. Overlooking the Castle grounds, it has fabulous parkland down to the river Thames and is just moments away from the town centre.
The property is approached via a driveway which goes through the old castle gates and a walled garden. The front entrance opens into a large central dining hall. Double doors lead to a central passageway and to numerous reception rooms including drawing room with working fireplace, sitting room and south facing conservatory. The kitchen/breakfast room is bright and spacious with room for a large dining table.
On the second floor you have 4 bedrooms (1 en suite) and a family bathroom. There is a study off bedroom 3 which could also be used a nursery. There is loft space on the second floor with good ancillary storage.
Outside
The Coach House is approached through the former gates to Wallingford Castle across a driveway to its own gates and a gravel driveway.
The front and rear gardens have been beautifully landscaped with well stocked flower beds and a variety of mature shrubs and trees. A heated swimming pool is sheltered from the elements by a walled garden and decorated at one end with a grapevine laden pergola. The pool house/store houses pool equipment, heating and filtration units. A gate off the garden leads to a path which will take you down to the River Thames.
In addition at the rear of the garden there is a gate onto the outstanding parkland from the former Wallingford Castle, which also will lead to the River Thames.
There is a garage with adjacent workshop and an office with cloakroom, kitchen sink and beautiful stained glass windows which could be used as an annexe to the main house.
Agent's Note: Please note the photos were taken in 2019.
Location
The Coach House is tucked away yet within walking distance of Wallingford town centre; a thriving Thameside Saxon town with extensive facilities and a number of shops including a Waitrose supermarket, a good selection of antique shops, boutiques and specialist stores with a traditional market being held every Friday in the town square.
The town also benefits from its own excellent cinema/theatre and restaurants and a sports park and leisure centre which offer the chance to join a number of well-established clubs such as cricket, rugby, football, hockey and rowing.
Springs Golf Club and Huntercombe Golf Club are nearby.
More extensive shopping facilities can be found at Oxford and Reading, both with a half hourly bus service from the town.
Access to London and the national motorway network is via junction 6 or 7 of the M40 or junction 12 or 13 of the M4 and there is a mainline train service from Didcot Parkway to London Paddington (from 42 minutes) or from Reading Station (from 24 minutes).
Local trains to Reading or Didcot and Oxford run from Cholsey Station 2 miles away.
There are schools of excellent repute in the area including Cranford House, Moulsford Preparatory and The Oratory plus a wide choice of Oxford and Abingdon schools including Abingdon School, St Helen and St Katharine, The Manor Preparatory (all served by school buses that stop in Wallingford), The Dragon, Headington, Radley and the European School in nearby Culham.

Enter Wallingford High Street via the river bridge and continue towards the centre of the town. At the first traffic lights in the middle of the town with Waitrose ahead of you, turn right at the crossroads onto Castle Street. Continue for approximately 400 yards and turn right through some large stone gates, and then the gates to the Coach House will be found straight ahead of you.
