This individual and well-presented detached family house occupies a quiet setting that is no more than a five-minute walk from the town centre. The house was built in 1991 and benefits from a generous plot that provides a private driveway, attached garage and delightful garden. A large covered porch has been added since the house was built but we believe there to be further opportunities to extend and enhance the accommodation, subject to planning and building consents.
The accommodation is set around a central stairwell with an excellent arrangement of rooms providing family accommodation on two floors. There is an open plan kitchen with adjacent utility room, two reception rooms, four bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms, including an en-suite with the master bedroom. A generous driveway delivers off-road parking and there is an attached garage and a delightful garden to the rear. The garage footprint may offer the opportunitiy to extend the living accommodation on towo levels and a rear extension may also be possible.
Watlington is reputedly England’s smallest town with its origins dating from the 6th century. The town has a range of sports facilities that embrace football and cricket as well as tennis, squash and bowls. There are good local shops including a first class butcher and delicatessen and some excellent restaurants and pubs. Watlington Primary school and Rainbow Corner day nursery and pre-school have an ‘outstanding’ ofsted rating and senior education is provided by the well-regarded Icknield Community College. The Chiltern Hills rise above the town and offer some of the finest landscapes in south-east England. There is much on offer here for outdoor enthusiasts, cyclists and walkers as The Icknield Way (Ridgeway National Trail) passes close to the town. Watlington is also the heartland of the re-introduced Red Kite that now soar above the town’s roof tops.
