Set on a quiet close in desirable Upper Basildon, this well-presented two-bedroom bay-fronted semi offers a comfortable village home with strong local amenities. The house faces open downland fields and benefits from a south-facing rear garden, creating bright living spaces and an appealing indoor-outdoor flow. At about 812 sq ft, the layout includes an entrance hall, sitting room, kitchen/dining room, principal bedroom with en suite, second bedroom and family bathroom.
Built in the early 2000s and double-glazed, the property has practical modern construction and an EPC rating of C. Oil-fired central heating via a boiler and radiators provides effective warmth, but buyers should note ongoing fuel and servicing costs associated with oil systems. The freehold tenure, off-street driveway and very low local crime contribute to straightforward ownership.
This home will suit first-time buyers, young families and downsizers seeking village life within the North Wessex Downs AONB. Local schools are well regarded and Pangbourne’s shops and rail link are a short drive away. The south garden, deck and terrace are neat and low-maintenance, while the field outlook to the front is a genuine character plus.
Points for consideration: the house is average-sized with two bedrooms and may feel limited for growing families; the main heating is oil (not a community supply), and council tax is Band D. Mobile signal is average, though broadband speeds are fast. Overall this is a tidy, ready-to-live-in village home with sensible running costs and clear potential to personalise.
