The Blenheims is an impressive Victorian home immaculately presented in beautiful gardens with a double garage. The main façade has classic proportions and is beautifully complimented by twin bay windows and details with a welcoming porch. This elegant family house has versatile accommodations, high ceilings throughout and enjoys views over gardens to the front and rear. The main reception rooms are light and spacious with many period features such as sash windows, grand fireplaces with log burners and French doors onto the garden.

The accommodation is versatile and arranged over three floors. On the ground floor, the main reception rooms are to the front of the house, whilst the less formal kitchen/breakfast room and snug to the rear of the property have a more convivial feel. Beyond the snug is an enormous playroom; however, the space lends itself to many uses for the family.

The first floor has three bedrooms and two family bath/shower rooms, generous
ceiling heights, and terrific views over the gardens. Above there are a further three bedrooms, with views over the town and the countryside beyond.

The house of approximately 3216 sq. ft. is situated in Belmont, a no-through road with predominantly Victorian properties in the centre of Wantage. It sits in a large plot of approximately half an acre comprising beautiful formal gardens with large lawns to the front and rear. Whilst mostly laid to lawn, there are deep herbaceous borders, a productive vegetable garden and mature screening from neighbours. There is a recent double garage block with plenty of gravel parking.


The Blenheims is one of the last properties at the end of a desirable no-through
road in a quiet part of town, a short walk from the market place. Wantage is an
attractive, historic market town and civil parish in the Vale of the White Horse set on the Letcombe Brook and the fringe of the Berkshire Downs about 10 miles southwest of Abingdon and 17 miles south-west of Oxford. Wantage offers a broad and comprehensive range of shops and leisure facilities, including a Sainsbury's and Waitrose, whilst more extensive facilities can be found in Newbury and Oxford.

Oxfordshire and Berkshire have many excellent schools particularly in the Abingdon and Oxford area. Those schools include; Abingdon, St. Helen and St. Katharine, Radley College, Pinewood, St. Hugh's, Cothill and The Manor. The town is well located for access into London via road or train. Didcot Parkway (9 miles) provides regular trains into London Paddington, taking approximately 40 minutes. Abingdon 10 miles, Hungerford 14 miles, Oxford 17 miles, London 70 miles.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
