3 bedroom detached house

Built to order by 'Knapps' in 1953, this wonderful three-bedroom detached home has been loved and cared for and extended, by the same family since built.

Providing well-proportioned accommodation throughout the property comprises a lovely entrance hall providing access to the sitting room, kitchen, and downstairs bathroom. Placed at the front of the home is the dual aspect sitting room, featuring a fireplace with the possibility of having either an open or gas fire and an archway leading through to the adjacent dining room which is at the rear of the home and provides the most beautiful views through the patio doors out to the extensive rear garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is a very good size and fitted with a nice range of matching base and wall units within built oven and hob and space for various appliances, along with ample space for a dining table. To the rear of the property is the sunroom which again provides lovely views across the garden.

On the first floor there are three very well-proportioned bedrooms, each of which can take a double bed, these are serviced by a family shower room.

Externally there is extensive driveway parking to the front of the home which leads to the single detached garage. A side gate provides access to the wonderful rear garden, which is mainly laid to lawn and enclosed with a variety of mature shrubs and bushes. The garden makes the most of the afternoon summer sun yet retains shaded area because of cleverly planted shrubs. At the far end of the garden is a beautiful hideaway that would make the idyllic spot for relaxing or entertaining whilst watching the sun go down across the adjacent fields.

Shrivenham is one of the larger villages within the Vale of the White Horse and without question one of the most desirable in the area. The village is located circa 5 miles north-east of Swindon and circa 5 miles south-west of the market town of Faringdon. The village is ideally located for access to the M4 (8 minutes away) and the A420 leading to Oxford and beyond. The village itself has an extremely active community and a bypass built in 1984 ensures that Shrivenham’s rural atmosphere is preserved. In addition to the Memorial Hall on the corner of Highworth Road and newly built primary school and pre-school in Raven Way, there is a lovely tree-lined high street with shops, restaurants, public houses, a doctors’ surgery, chemist and parish church. There is a frequent bus service through the village from Swindon to Oxford and back, linking to rail services and airports.
