Full Details for 4 Bedroom Cottage for sale in Wallingford, OX10 :
Why we like it:
With a unique history and individual charm Anchor House dates back to the seventeenth century. As one of the town`s iconic properties, it is a rare opportunity that a property such as this would come to the open market. The current owner has resided here for over thirty years. Situated in a quiet backwater location near St Leonards Church in the old conservation area of the town, the property was originally two properties and a public house. The property has retained a lot of the original character and `olde worlde` charm with features such as extensive open beam work and an impressive Inglenook fireplace and large usable cellar. There is excellent scope to alter further whilst keeping the charm of the original Grade Two listed property.
What it offers:
The accommodation is presented over three floors as well as a usable cellar. On entering the property you will find an impressive 20 foot lounge with Inglenook fire place and exposed beams as well as views down the rear garden. There is a dining room and a further reception room adjacent to the lounge with the dining room having doors which open onto the rear gaden as well as stairs to the cellar. The kitchen is large enough to house a table and it has been updated in recent years.
There is a good selection of wall and base units and quarry tiled flooring. From here there is access to a large garage measuring 203 x 186 (this could be developed to provide further living space subject to planning). There is also a cloakroom. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The second floor has two further bedrooms which are both doubles. Outside the property there is driveway parking for one car and front and rear gardens. The rear garden is of a good size and mainly laid to lawn.
Location:
300m from from the centre of Wallingford, a thriving Thameside town, which has extensive facilities and a number of shops including a Waitrose supermarket, restaurants and public houses. The town also benefits from its own excellent cinema/theatre and a sports park and leisure centre which offer the chance to join a number of well-established clubs such as cricket, rugby, football and hockey. Springs Golf Club, Goring & Streatley and Huntercombe Golf Club are nearby and there are delightful riverside walks accessed directly from the property.
More extensive shopping facilities can be found at Oxford (12 miles) and Reading (15 miles). Access to London and the national motorway network is via junctions 6 or 7 of M40 and there is a mainline train service from Didcot Parkway to London Paddington (from 45 minutes). There are excellent schools nearby including Cranford House, Moulsford Prep and The Oratory plus a wide choice of Oxford and Abingdon schools including The Dragon, Headington, Radley and the European School
Sold by Lesters at the end of 2012. Similar properties now required for potential purchasers on our mailing list.
