4 bedroom detached house for sale

Welcomed into the hallway, you have stairs rising to the first floor, cloakroom and understairs storage cupboard. This then leads into the kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a range of wall and base units, as well as integrated white goods to include a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, wine fridge, gas hobs and oven. In turn, this opens out on to the conservatory, with panoramic views of the garden and patio doors creating a wonderful indoor/outdoor flow. Back in the hallway and heading straight ahead is the dual aspect living room, centred around an open fireplace, with a second set of patio doors out onto the garden.

To the first floor are four bedrooms, two of which are good-sized doubles and the others large singles, one of which benefits from a built-in wardrobe. The bedrooms are all serviced by the family bathroom, fitted with a modern white suite.

Externally the garden is a great size, wrapping around the house, offering low maintenance and all enclosed by mature trees and shrubs. There is also a raised decked seating area and patio closest to the house. Side access is available down both ends of the garden and brings you round to the front, where there is ample driveway parking for at least six cars, as well as a further front lawn that could be made into further driveway if needed. The integral single garage is fitted with an electric up-and-over door, and the garage has plumbing for utilities as well as rafter storage.

The historic market town of Faringdon, dating back at least to the 12th century, has a thriving community and amenities such as the Leisure Centre, Library, Faringdon Community College, The Elms and Folly View primary schools as well as The Old Station Nursery, doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries and The Place Family Centre. Buses travel from the town to private schools at Abingdon. The town now boasts three large supermarkets.

Faringdon is also ideally positioned for the A420, leading to the A34, M40 and M4 and mainline railway services from Swindon, Oxford, Oxford Parkway and Didcot Parkway. There is a frequent bus service through the town from Swindon to Oxford and back, linking to rail services and airports.

The Tower on Folly Hill was built by Lord Berners in 1935 and affords panoramic views across four counties. For over 20 years, the town has been twinned with Le Mêle-sur-Sarthe in France and more recently with Konigstein im Taunus in Germany. In 2004, Faringdon became the first Fairtrade town in the South East of England.
