Approached along a shared private driveway serving just two properties, the bungalow has been thoughtfully improved by the current owners. Bright, well-proportioned rooms offer plenty of flexibility, making this a home that can adapt to a variety of lifestyles.
At its heart is a recently fitted contemporary kitchen, complemented by a separate utility room. The generous dual-aspect sitting/dining room provides an inviting space for relaxing and entertaining, while a delightful sun room enjoys views across the gardens.
There are three well-proportioned bedrooms, alongside a separate dining room that could equally serve as a fourth bedroom, home office or family room. A family bathroom fitted with a four-piece suite and an additional cloakroom complete the accommodation.
Recent improvements include a new boiler, updates to the electrical installation and the addition of solar panels, bringing practical benefits to this well-maintained home.
The gardens are a particular highlight. Wrapping around the bungalow, they offer an appealing mix of open lawn, mature trees and established flower beds filled with seasonal colour. Productive vegetable patches and a delightful orchard add further interest, with plenty of space to grow your own, entertain outdoors or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
A detached double garage, substantial workshops and further outbuildings add to the property's versatility, providing excellent space for storage, hobbies and practical projects, with scope for other uses subject to any necessary consents.
Combining space, privacy and beautiful gardens with the convenience of shops, cafés and everyday amenities within walking distance, this is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a tucked-away position without feeling cut off from town life.
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.
