LOCATION
Goring-on-Thames lies serenely in the beautiful Thames Valley set between the Chiltern Hills in Oxfordshire and the Berkshire Downlands opposite above the village of Streatley, the area known geographically as the ‘Goring Gap’ and designated an ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’.

In 2010 Goring was awarded the prestigious ‘Oxfordshire Village of the Year’ and also the coveted ‘South of England’ title. Local amenities include a super primary school, an excellent range of interesting shops and restaurants, together with a riverside café, boutique hotel, two olde worlde inns, health centre, veterinary practice, dentist and library. Importantly, a mainline railway station provides fast commuter services to London (Paddington) in well under the hour. The area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of state and private schooling. 

The central village ‘Conservation Area’ has a wealth of architecturally interesting properties, many listed and dating from around the 16th Century. Historically, Goring-on-Thames traces back to Saxon times.

In addition to having well revered and outstanding local state primary and secondary schooling, including a primary school within Goring-on-Thames itself, the area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of private schooling, of particular note; Cranford House School, The Oratory Preparatory School, Moulsford Preparatory School, St Andrews Preparatory School, The Oratory School, Pangbourne College, Brockhurst & Marlston House, Downe House, Rupert House School, Shiplake College, The Abbey School, Bradfield College, The Manor Preparatory School, Abingdon School, Abingdon Preparatory School, Radley College, and St Helen & St Katharine.

Streatley-on-Thames, on the Berkshire side of the river, is another picturesque village surrounded by hills and woodlands now mainly owned by the National Trust. Fronting onto the river by the bridge crossing over to Goring is the Swan at Streatley, a luxury 4 star riverside hotel with adjoining Coppa Club and leisure and fitness facilities.

Crossrail (Elizabeth Line) services have commenced from Reading, with the full service scheduled to commence in 2021, which together with the completed electrification of the line has significantly improved travelling times to East and West destinations.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Ideally situated within the quiet heart of this quintessentially English village, but only a short walk to The River Thames, extensive high street shops and restaurants, the well revered primary school, and for the mainline railway station providing direct access to London in under the hour, Windrush sits well back in its spacious gardens and grounds, enjoying a most delightful southerly aspect.

The house has a delightful wide covered porch which opens through to the reception hall, which is most spacious and has a useful under-stairs storage area as well as a separate cloakroom. The open plan living/dining room has views across the garden and there is a fireplace with a contemporary Parkray Aspect wood burner, plus door to the decked terrace. The modern and contemporary kitchen is fully fitted with plenty of cupboard space, whilst upstairs, there are 3 double bedrooms, all with built-in storage, and airing cupboard, and a family bathroom. The bathroom is a modern suite with bath and overhead shower. There is a single garage with up and over door.

With a most impressive design and lifestyle to be enjoyed, along with far reaching views from the first floor to the hills on the opposing side of the river, Windrush is a simply delightful family home in a superb location.

OUTSIDE
Quietly and privately situated directly off Lockstile Mead, a private gravelled driveway spans the width of the property, with a smaller bay off to one side, whilst to the other, it leads up to the attached garage and entrance hall

The primary garden is spacious and light, enjoying a southerly aspect, and ever so attractive and mature, with great privacy afforded, having high mature hedging on 3 sides, which flank a spacious central lawned garden.

A generous decked terrace overlooking the primary garden enables al-fresco dining and entertaining, as also does a most private paved patio at the rear of the property.

Wonderfully mature and most private, the landscaped gardens and grounds must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
