A charming detached character modern house set in perhaps the most sought after of the residential roads within the heart of Pangbourne village within easy walking distance of all the fantastic facilities, including shops, schools, doctors, buses, trains, pubs and restaurants. Built to exacting standards in part of the old gardens of the late Victorian house which lies adjacent, individually constructed for the present owners who have resided for some 18 years. Much of the architectural detail of the property has been created from earlier period houses, especially the Victorian house, Southwood, which lies adjacent. A number of the windows have a moulded stone surround, as does the main entrance doorway with its traditional gothic lintel, once again moulded stone support with a pair of windows flanking the door, also in moulded stone. The property as a whole is in beautiful condition and occupies a generous and very private plot with large forecourt and a York stone terrace and herbaceous borders. Detached garage block to the rear. Further shrubberies, mature trees, well-maintained lawns and another wide sun terrace.
Special Features: A large reception hall with English oak flooring. A sweeping staircase rises to the first floor, also in carved oak. Drawing room with large open log fire on a brick hearth with carved oak mantel and moulded stone columns on both sides. French doors in the drawing room open onto the front terrace and a further set of French doors slide back, giving access to the conservatory / dining room. All windows in the property are primary double glazed. There is a study area just off the hall with a doorway giving access to the rear garden.
One of the five bedrooms is on the ground floor with an en-suite shower room. There is an unusually large kitchen living room which is designed to take a large dining table which could accommodate 10-12 people if so desired.
The kitchen is fully integrated with Liebherr fridge and deep freeze, 2 Siemens ovens one with mircrowave, Atag 6 ring gas hob with extractor over, stainless steel sink unit with waste disposal, granite and maple worktops throughout. An island unit with granite worktop, and also fitted with a Stoves under-mounted gas cooker, a NEFF hot plate, a circular stainless steel sink unit and a breakfast bar to one end. An unusual feature for a modern house, a large walk-in pantry. Hand painted cream cupboard and drawer units, highlighted in dark green, with plate racks and a range of pot drawers. Ceramic tile flooring throughout. Utility room is fully fitted with a Miele washing machine, separate Miele tumble dryer, eco water softening system and fitted Glow-worm ridgeway gas fired boiler supplying central heating and domestic hot water, these units will all remain. The utility room also has a large boot cupboard and a door to the exterior to the rear. The first floor has four further bedrooms; three doubles and a single, presently used as a study.
The master bedroom has a shower, bath and bidet with two hand basins set in marble. There are lots of built-in wardrobes. The second bedroom has an en-suite bathroom. The third bedroom has an en-suite shower room and bidet.
