3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Barrington Road, Watchfield, Oxfordshire SN6

A lovely three-bedroom semi-detached home situated in an enviable position at the end of a cul-de-sac with fields and a golf course behind. Offering immaculate accommodation with dual aspect living downstairs, an incredibly private garden with a stream, and driveway parking for a couple of cars.

Entering the porch, there is ample space for coats and boots and this leads through to the sitting room - dual aspect and an incredibly bright room with stairs to the first floor and a storage cupboard. The kitchen/diner has lots of fitted base and wall mounted units with an integrated oven, hob and dishwasher, with a door out to the garden.

On the first floor are two double bedrooms, both with spacious fitted wardrobes, and a single bedroom, all serviced by the family bathroom.

Outside, the rear garden is a nature lover's paradise. There is a good-sized patio offering the perfect place for BBQs and summer entertaining, and a lawned garden which slopes down to a small stream. This is completely enclosed by mature hedging and trees and as the house is positioned on a corner plot, the sizeable grounds are very private. There is driveway parking at the side of the house for a couple of cars.

Watchfield has a charming village centre with a church, village hall and public house, and a small shopping centre with a public house and a restaurant near the roundabout with the A420. The Defence Academy of the United Kingdom provides post-graduate level education for UK and overseas military personnel. Many students and staff live in the village and play an active part in community life. The excellent village primary school has children from several different countries, which makes for an interesting learning environment.

Together, Watchfield and Shrivenham make one of the larger village areas within the Vale of the White Horse and are located to the north east of Swindon (circa 5 miles) and to the south west of the market town of Faringdon (circa 5 miles). A bypass built in 1984 ensures that the rural atmosphere of both villages is preserved. Shrivenham also has an extremely active community. There is a lovely tree-lined high street with shops, restaurants, public houses, a doctors’ surgery, and Methodist and Church of England churches. There is also a newly built primary school with nursery, and a golf course.

Both villages are ideally located for access to the M4 at Swindon and the A420 leading to Oxford and beyond. There is a frequent bus service from Swindon to Oxford and back.
