4 bed detached house for sale

Willes Close, Faringdon, Oxfordshire SN7

Located down a quiet cul-de-sac and walking distance to the town centre, this four bedroom, detached, family home offers a wealth of downstairs accommodation and has been greatly improved by the current owners.

You are welcomed into the hallway which offers space for shoes and coats, a cloakroom and stairs rising to the first floor. This leads into the large living room with a log burner and open to the extension, letting in loads of natural light. The kitchen/dining room runs the full length of the house, with integrated white goods to include a dishwasher, wine fridge, double oven and induction hob as well as space and plumbing for a fridge/freezer. Bifold doors open up on to the south facing garden and Velux windows span the roof, flooding the room with sunlight all day long. There is also a playroom that can be closed off from the dining room and leads through into an office, also with a Velux window and door into the garage. At the front of the house is a large utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumbler dryer as well as ample storage with a range of wall and base units.

To the first floor are four double bedrooms with space for wardrobes as well as the family bathroom, fitted with a corner bath and double length shower.

Externally, there is driveway parking for four cars and access into the integral single garage that has power and light and additional loft storage. There is also side access to the rear garden with decking that spans the length of the extension and round the side. As this is south facing, you get to enjoy the sun all day long and the owners have perfectly positioned two seating areas to get the bulk of the morning and evening sunshine.

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.
