Description

This 3-bedroom semi-detached Victorian home presents a distinctive opportunity for renovation in the desirable village of Pangbourne. Built in 1896, the property retains a wealth of original character and features, making it ripe for those looking to personalize or enhance their living space. With only two owners over the past century, this residence is ready for a new chapter. The location is particularly advantageous, situated just a short stroll from Pangbourne’s vibrant high street filled with independent shops, cafes, and restaurants. The mainline railway station, located approximately 0.4 miles away, offers direct services to London Paddington, catering well to commuters. Additionally, the property is conveniently positioned near J12 of the M4, which is about 5.6 miles away. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to scenic riverside and countryside walks while families can benefit from nearby highly regarded schools including Pangbourne College and Bradfield College. Upon entering the home, you are greeted by a welcoming porch and hallway that leads into two spacious reception rooms—ideal for both living and dining purposes with considerable potential for modernizing or reconfiguring layouts to suit individual needs. The kitchen is generously proportioned with ample workspace and room for a breakfast table, ensuring it remains a central hub of family activity. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility/shower room with a separate WC for added convenience, as well as an external porch providing access to the sizeable garden. On the first floor, there are three well-sized bedrooms complemented by a family bathroom and an additional office space—perfect for those who work from home. A staircase leads up to a versatile loft room that can function as a fourth bedroom or creative studio and includes its own en-suite bathroom. The rear garden extends over 100 feet in length and offers significant potential for landscaping or creating designated play areas; it could also be ideal for future extensions (subject to planning permission). At the front of the house, off-road parking accommodates multiple vehicles along with access to a single garage. In summary, this property not only boasts charm but also presents excellent investment potential through modernization and expansion in one of West Berkshire's sought-after locations. It’s an appealing prospect for families wanting to create their dream home while enjoying all that Pangbourne has to offer.
