Property description

Set in the heart of the ever-popular village of Shrivenham, this unique four/five bedroom detached family home offers a rare opportunity to acquire one of only two properties of its kind on this quiet road. Thoughtfully laid out across three floors and presented in refreshed condition throughout, the home combines generous living spaces with practicality and a superb location.
The ground floor welcomes you with a spacious entrance hallway leading to a modern, open-plan kitchen/dining room, which flows seamlessly into the full-width living room - perfect for entertaining or family gatherings. French doors open directly onto the good-sized rear garden, enhancing indoor-outdoor living. A separate playroom, WC, and internal access to the single garage (featuring an electric roller door) complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including Bedroom 1 with an adjoining dressing area and ensuite shower room, plus a nursery/study and family bathroom. On the top floor, you'll find Bedroom 2, a generous double with its own ensuite shower room – an ideal guest suite or private retreat.
Although the bathrooms could benefit from modernisation, the rest of the property has been redecorated and refreshed, offering a clean slate for its next owners.
Externally, the home enjoys paved driveway parking for 2–3 cars and secure gated side access into the private rear garden, ideal for children, pets, or al fresco dining.
Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the space, layout, and excellent location this home has to offer.
The village of Shrivenham has an extremely active community and a bypass built in 1984 ensures that Shrivenham's rural atmosphere is preserved. There is a lovely tree lined high street with shops, restaurants, public houses, a doctors' surgery, chemist, as well as a village primary school, nursery and impressive Church, which dates back to the 11th Century.
