A bright, extended three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wantage, close to Charlton Primary School and the town centre. The ground floor offers flexible family living with a sitting room, separate dining room, study and an L-shaped kitchen/breakfast/family room featuring a vaulted area with Velux windows. French doors open to a larger-than-average rear garden with a paved seating area, lawn, mature shrubs and substantial outbuildings including a powered workshop.
The first floor provides three good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. Practical details include double glazing, mains gas central heating to radiators, freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile coverage. The plot and layout suit a growing family wanting generous outdoor space or buyers seeking scope to add value through light modernisation.
Notable negatives are presented plainly: the EPC is rated D and the property presents opportunity for updating throughout. The exterior shows ivy and will benefit from landscaping and cosmetic attention. On-street parking only; only one bathroom serves three bedrooms. As with many pre-2000 homes, some materials (e.g., Artex or vinyl tiles) may contain asbestos and should be checked by buyers if disturbed.
Overall this is a practical, well-located family home in a very affluent area with good commuting links. Buyers seeking ready-to-move-in turnkey finish may require further modernisation, while those looking for a family garden and workshop space will find strong appeal.
