Property description
This attractive semi detached Victorian-style family home is well situated on Gilligans Way, on the edge of this established development, with off-street parking for two vehicles leading to the garage, which has been partly converted into a useful home office space.
The property offers an entrance hall with larger than average downstairs cloakroom. The spacious sitting room is to the front of the property, which in turn, leads through to the stylish contemporary kitchen/dining room at the rear of the property. The kitchen offers a good range of wall and floor units, with integrated electric oven and hob.
To the first floor, the master bedroom benefits from a fitted sliding triple wardrobe and a modern fitted en suite shower room. There are two further generous bedrooms, both serviced by a modern family bathroom.
Externally, the property has the benefit of a good sized landscaped garden, mainly laid to lawn with a patio area and side gate. There are double UPVc French doors to the side of the garage, providing access to the home office, with power and light. The driveway is accessed via the side wooden gate, with parking for two vehicles, and provides access to the remaining part of the garage, used for storage, via the up and over metal door.<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.
