The village offers a nursery and a church highly, a highly regarded primary school, with Downs secondary school at Compton. There is also a further wide selection of private schools in the area. Both market towns of Newbury and Wantage offer comprehensive shopping and leisure facilities. Communications in the area are excellent with the property being roughly equidistant between Junctions 13 and 14 of the M4 giving access to both central London and the West Country. There are also frequent trains to London from Didcot Parkway or Newbury mainline stations (Paddington).

Description

A charming detached four bedroom thatched cottage which was largely rebuilt approximately fourteen years ago and recently extended. Great care has been taken to replicate the original character of the cottage, with the advantage of satisfying the efficiency and convenience requirements of modern day family life.
Beautifully presented throughout, on entering there is a thoughtfully planned boot room off which is a WC. The boot room leads into the snug and then the sitting room beyond, the latter having a fireplace with wood-burning stove. The wonderful kitchen/dining/family room has shaker style units and a central island, plus bi-fold doors out to the garden and an adjoining utility room.
The first floor offers four double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom having an en suite shower room, plus a family bathroom.
There is driveway parking in front of the detached garage for at least two cars. The pretty rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with flower beds and a paved dining area.
