Bungalow for sale in Marlborough Place, Faringdon, Oxfordshire SN7

A fabulous, detached bungalow situated in a quiet cul-de-sac location with no passing traffic, close to the centre of Faringdon. This property offers flexible living accommodation, ample off-road parking, a double garage, and a wonderful garden.

Upon entering you are greeted by a hall. The sitting room is to the front and features a gas fireplace and large window. On the other side of the hall is two double bedrooms and a single bedroom all serviced by a family bathroom.

The spacious kitchen is fitted with a range of floor and wall mounted units and has a lovely outlook over the garden. From here sits a dining room with external door out to the garden.

Outside there is gated driveway parking for several vehicles in front of a double garage. The rear garden is incredibly large with a raised patio area, lawn, fruit trees, and shrub borders.

Although most of the windows have been replaced in recent years and the boiler is relatively new, this family home would benefit from some modernisation throughout and offers a fantastic blank canvas for the new owners to add their stamp.<br /><br />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, Junior and Infant 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.
