House For Sale £250,000
Ferndale Street, Faringdon SN7


Description
Rarely does a gem of a cottage such as this become available to purchase in the town, particularly one that offers so well-balanced a combination of practicality and cosy character.

The accommodation has been sympathetically decorated and presented to be in keeping with a cottage of this age: Natural wood doors with ceramic furniture; wooden flooring in the sitting room; flagstones in the dining room, kitchen and utility room; exposed beams and brickwork throughout the ground floor, and traditional style column radiators.

On the ground floor, either side of the front door are the sitting and dining rooms; both with fireplaces, one with a fitted solid fuel stove. Stairs rise from the sitting room to the first floor and the dining room is open to the kitchen. This is fitted with a range of matching wall and base units, built in appliances and a wall mounted gas boiler. From the kitchen a door leads to the utility room, cloak room and a back door to the courtyard.

The two first floor bedrooms each have an ensuite shower room: The principal bedroom with windows to both front and rear and an ensuite fitted in a classic, Italian marbled style. Continuing the traditional décor of the house, the second bedroom has a more contemporary style of ensuite.

Whether the cottage is lived in as a full time home or a second, lock up and leave, pied a terre, the outside space will suit those wanting the practicality of minimal outside space. There’s just enough room in the courtyard, with clever thinking and an eye for design, to create a very enjoyable town garden and outside seating area.

The historic market town of Faringdon, which dates back to the 12th Century, is located almost equidistant of Swindon and Oxford on the A420 which leads to the A34, M40 and M4. Mainline railway services to London run from Swindon, Oxford City, Oxford Parkway and Didcot Parkway. The town is served by the Stagecoach S6 bus which runs a regular ½ hourly service through much of the day to Swindon and Oxford and the villages en-route. The town itself has a thriving community and amenities such as the leisure centre, library, independent traders, doctors’ surgery, two primary schools, and a secondary school. In 2004, Faringdon became the first Fairtrade town in the South East of England. A recent retail development includes a Waitrose and an Aldi supermarket, with further retail offer planned, in addition to the existing Tesco store.

By appointment only please.
