Upon entering, you are welcomed into a good-sized hallway, with stairs rising to the first floor, a storage cupboard for coats and shoes and a downstairs cloakroom. Straight ahead is the kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a range of wall and base units as well as integrated white goods to include dishwasher, gas hob, fridge/freezer and recently re-fitted double oven. There is also space for a breakfast table or dresser. At the back of the kitchen, you have access into the utility room, fitted with matching units and inbuilt washing machine and tumble dyer. The washing machine has also been recently re-fitted.

At the back of the house are two good sized reception rooms. The largest serves as the living room with patio doors out on to the garden; the second reception room is currently used as a snug but could be a dining room. It is fitted with a log burner to one side, leaving ample space for seating or a dining table. A further set of patio doors leads out to the garden. Both rooms are also fitted with high quality shutters that can be split into two parts offering complete adjustment to the light in the room. Completing the downstairs accommodation is the office.

To the first floor, you have four double bedrooms, the two largest benefiting from en suite bathrooms and built-in wardrobes. The other two bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom, fitted with a modern white suite. Newly laid carpets have also been added to some of the bedrooms.

Externally, the garden has been beautifully redesigned throughout and landscaped, with composite decking to one side, a perfect seating area in the afternoon/evening. In the middle is a lawned section and on the other side a second patio fitted with lights and a bar - a great space for entertaining or family life. From the garden, you also have access into the double garage with power, light and racking. There is side access to the front of the house where you have a small front garden and driveway parking.

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 a 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 in 2004, Faringdon became the first Fairtrade town in the South East of England.
