Summary - 18 MILL LANE BENSON WALLINGFORD OX10 6SA
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Large plot, double garage and long drive minutes from village amenities and Good schools.
Chain free five-bedroom detached house on a large private plot
This generously proportioned five-bedroom detached house sits on a large, private plot in a quiet no-through lane near the centre of Benson. The long cobble-effect drive leads to a double garage and wide turning area, providing significant off-street parking for family cars and visitors. Ground-floor living includes a double-aspect sitting room with patio doors, formal dining room, study and a kitchen/breakfast room with adjacent utility — useful for busy family life.
Upstairs offers five well-proportioned bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms, plus useful loft access and built-in wardrobes in several rooms. The wraparound rear garden is enclosed and private, with mature planting and paved terrace — ideal for children and outdoor entertaining. Local schools with Good Ofsted ratings and village amenities are within easy reach, while the setting on the town fringe gives a semi-rural feel with strong broadband and mobile signal.
Practical considerations: the house was built c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls (assumed no cavity insulation) and has oil-fired boiler heating — both factors that may affect running costs and comfort unless upgraded. The property is in council tax band G, so ongoing costs are higher than average. There is a recorded high flood risk for the location; purchasers should seek specialist flood advice and insurance quotes.
Chain free and with scope for modest updating, the home will suit buyers wanting space, privacy and garaging close to village life, but who are prepared to address energy efficiency and flood-mitigation measures. The size and layout also present potential to reconfigure or extend (subject to planning) for growing households.
