Location


Goring-on-Thames lies serenely in the beautiful Thames Valley set between the Chiltern Hills in Oxfordshire and the Berkshire Downs opposite above the village of Streatley, the area known geographically as the ‘Goring Gap’ and designated an ‘Area of Outstanding

Natural Beauty’. In 2010 Goring was awarded the prestigious ‘Oxfordshire Village of the Year’ and also the coveted ‘South of England’ title. Local amenities include a super primary school, an excellent range of interesting shops and restaurants, together with a riverside café, boutique hotel, two olde worlde inns, health centre, veterinary practice, dentist and library. Importantly, a mainline railway station provides fast commuter services to London (Paddington) in well under the hour. The area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of state and private schooling. The central village ‘Conservation Area’ has a wealth of architecturally interesting properties, many listed and dating from around the 6th Century. Historically, Goring-on-Thames traces back to Saxon times. In addition to having well revered and outstanding local state primary and secondary schooling, including a primary school within

Goring-on-Thames itself, the area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of private schooling, of particular note; Cranford House School, The Oratory Preparatory School, Moulsford Preparatory School, St Andrews Preparatory School, The Oratory School, Pangbourne College, Brockhurst & Marlston House, Downe House, Rupert House School, Shiplake College, The Abbey School, Bradfield College, The Manor Preparatory School, Abingdon School, Abingdon Preparatory School, Radley College, and St Helen & St Katharine.

Streatley-on-Thames, on the Berkshire side of the river, is another picturesque village surrounded by hills and woodlands now mainly owned by the National Trust. Fronting

onto the river by the bridge crossing over to Goring is the Swan at Streatley, a luxury 4 star riverside hotel with adjoining Coppa Club and leisure and fitness facilities.

Crossrail (Elizabeth Line) services have commenced from Reading, which together with the completed electrification of the line has significantly improved travelling times to East and West destinations.

Lycroft Close is a quiet L-shaped cul-de-sac approached off the wide tree lined Milldown Avenue. The Close comprises detached houses of differing size, architectural design and internal arrangement and were built in the mid 1960’s by Gough Cooper, a well-respected Development Company. The houses are traditionally constructed in a contemporary style for the period and have the benefit of good-sized gardens. The top part of the Close only has houses along one side of the road which all face a wide grassed verge with mature deciduous trees forming a small copse extending along the full length behind providing colour and interest through the year.
Property description


Ideally situated within the quiet heart of this quintessentially English village, but a short walk to The River Thames, extensive high street shops and restaurants, the well revered primary school, and for the mainline railway station providing direct access to London in under the hour, 21 Lycroft Close sits back in its plot, privately enjoying large mature gardens and grounds. Having traditional mellow brick elevations under a pitched tiled and part dormered roof with wide glazing, the property presents itself as a contemporary family home which extends to approximately 1130 sq ft, affording a delightfully traditional layout, with 1 reception rooms, 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, as well as a garage. In a most charming setting, a spacious detached home is afforded.
Outside


Quietly and privately situated directly off Lycroft Close, Number 21 is located at the top part of the Close which only has houses along one side of the road which all face a wide grassed verge with mature deciduous trees forming a small copse extending along the full length behind providing colour and interest through the year. A private driveway leads up to the integral garage and front door, opening through to the reception hall. Extensive planting and an expansive lawned garden run across the front of the house, leading through a gate to the rear garden and grounds. The rear garden is spacious and light, and ever so attractive and mature, with great privacy afforded, benefitting from a wealth of established attractive planting to all boundaries, which flank a central lawned garden. A wide paved patio terrace leads off the rear of the house itself, providing a charming situation for al-fresco dining and entertaining. Wonderfully mature and most private, the landscaped gardens and grounds must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
