Set in the centre of sought-after Goring village, this spacious detached home offers generous, flexible living across multiple levels—ideal for growing families who value location and future potential. The current layout provides three double bedrooms with an easy route to reinstate a fourth bedroom if required, plus a principal en-suite and a separate dining room for family meals or homework space.
Ground-floor living includes a large dual-aspect living room with French doors to a private patio, a fitted kitchen with scope to extend into the utility or dining area (subject to planning), and a downstairs WC. The partially converted garage adds practical utility and storage but could be reworked if a full garage is preferred. Outside there are multiple garden areas and parking for two vehicles.
The fabric and systems are conventional for a 1990s build: double glazing, mains gas boiler and radiators, cavity walls assumed insulated. The interior is useable but some rooms are dated and would benefit from modernisation to maximise the house’s substantial 2,885 sq ft and market value. Council Tax is high (Band F) and the title is under review for any covenants or restrictions—these legal points should be checked before committing.
Location is a key strength: the village’s shops, restaurants and amenities are a short walk away, the primary school is about 0.5 miles and the mainline station c.0.2 miles, providing easy commuting. For buyers seeking space, convenience and the ability to add value through sympathetic updating or extension (stp), this property presents a rare opportunity in an affluent, low-crime area.
