Description

This period detached house offers a unique opportunity for renovation and expansion in a picturesque semi-rural setting. Situated on an elevated plot, the property boasts expansive views across the scenic Thames Valley and is nestled within 0.74 acres of mature gardens. With three bedrooms and various living spaces, including a welcoming sitting room with triple aspect windows, there is ample scope for sympathetic improvements or extensions (subject to local regulations). The house retains charming features such as beautiful oak joinery throughout, though it could benefit from modernisation to maximise its potential. The surrounding grounds include well-maintained lawns, shaped hedges, and productive garden areas that would appeal to keen gardeners. Additionally, a brick and timber outbuilding presents possibilities for conversion into a studio or additional storage. Located on The Ridge in Lower Basildon, this home combines tranquil living with convenient access to local amenities in Pangbourne and Goring, both of which are just minutes away. With excellent transport links to Reading and London Paddington nearby, this property represents an attractive investment opportunity for those looking to create their dream home in an idyllic location.
