Set close to Wantage town centre and the scenic Ridgeway, this detached five-bedroom home suits growing families who value flexible space and outdoor living. The main house offers a double-aspect living room, separate dining room and a well-equipped kitchen with a bay box window that fills the space with natural light. Upstairs, five generous bedrooms and three bathrooms provide room for family, guests and home study.
A significant advantage is the separate self-contained annexe/studio with its own kitchen and shower room — ideal for long-stay guests, an older child, or potential rental income. The large patio with built-in pizza oven extends living outdoors, while a double garage and driveway supply practical parking and storage. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and streaming.
Practical considerations: the property has an EPC rating of C and falls in an expensive council tax band, which affect running costs. Some local primary schools report large class sizes. There is no railway station in Wantage, so commuting relies on road links. Overall, this is a roomy, well-presented family home with flexible accommodation and strong outdoor entertaining potential, in an affluent, semi-rural setting.
