The Property

Wittenham is a detached three-bedroom home that has remained in the same family since it was built, occupying a sizeable plot that offers real potential. The home now requires modernisation, but its position and layout present an excellent opportunity for those wishing to create a bespoke family home.

On the ground floor, a welcoming hallway leads to two well-proportioned reception rooms, both enjoying outlooks across the gardens. The kitchen provides a spacious footprint with scope to reconfigure or extend, subject to planning. A ground floor WC adds convenience.

Upstairs, there are three generous bedrooms, each filled with natural light. The main bedroom benefits from a wide bay window, and there are two bathrooms plus a separate WC on this level, offering flexibility for redesign.

Externally, the home sits within beautiful lawned gardens that extend to the front and rear, with mature planting providing privacy and greenery. A driveway leads up to a garage, while the size of the plot allows space for side extension if desired. A main drain across the rear boundary may limit rear extension, but the garden outlook and open aspect remain a standout feature.
