5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Littleworth, Faringdon, Oxfordshire SN7

A wonderful semi-detached family home situated in the highly desirable village of Littleworth. This property has been lovingly extended and renovated over the past 50 years by the current owners and includes welcoming and homely interior with picturesque views to the rear.

The accommodation comprises a modern kitchen / breakfast room with ample floor and wall mounted units, a breakfast bar, and several integrated appliances such as a Neff double oven, induction hob and large American style fridge / freezer. Off the kitchen is a separate utility room with downstairs W/C. The dining area in this home has been opened to the family room via a large arch and this has a feature electric fireplace and bay window. On the other side of the hall is a second and incredibly bright reception room / sitting room with the original exposed stone wall.

On the first floor are five bedrooms (four of which offer fitted wardrobes) and the master bedroom boasts a large en-suite shower room. The other bedrooms are serviced by a modern family bathroom with a rain shower over the bath and a further W/C.

Outside is an extensive sweeping driveway to the front with garden on either side and leading to a single integral garage. Gated access leads through to the rear which is incredibly private and laid to patio. It has been indicated that there is potentially an option of buying / leasing some additional land which can be access from the garden from the council. This would increase the rear garden size considerably.

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.
