This substantial four-bedroom detached house, built in 2022, offers almost 2,500 sq ft of modern, energy-efficient living in the market town of Wantage. High-spec finishes, a vaulted entrance, and a bright open-plan kitchen/living space with bifold doors create comfortable family living and easy indoor-outdoor flow to the westerly garden. The house benefits from an air-source heat pump, battery-fed solar panels and underfloor heating on the ground floor, reducing running costs and fossil-fuel dependence.
Accommodation is flexible with a large master suite, two further ensuites/modern bathrooms, and a versatile ground-floor room currently used as a home office. The kitchen is well-equipped with integrated appliances and a central island, plus a useful utility room. Practicalities include an attached garage, ample driveway parking, a powered shed with water in the garden, and the remainder of the original building warranty in place.
Buyers should note a few material points: council tax is described as quite expensive, neighbouring houses sit relatively close and there are no exceptional long-distance views. It’s also noted that planning is likely to be submitted for a single dwelling on the adjacent land — this may affect privacy or future outlook. Overall, this is a roomy, low-carbon family home in an affluent, well-connected town, best suited to buyers who value modern specification and sustainability features but who accept nearby development potential.
