Location
Lying at the foot of the Berkshire Downlands, close to the River Thames is the fair sized village of Cholsey situated approximately 2 miles southwest of Wallingford and surrounded by a pleasant rural landscape designated an area of ‘Outstanding Natural Beauty’.
The original settlement dates back to Saxon times but since 1950 the Village has grown considerably from its modest origins centred around a small green known as ‘The Forty’ and now boasts a good range of shops and amenities including a Tesco Express supermarket with a Post Office, a general stores and newsagents, a ladies and gents hairdresser, a highly regarded butcher together with a wide range of trade services including an electrical wholesaler and contractor, a long established building company, plumbing and garden maintenance contractors. There are 2 Restaurants in the Village as well as 2 Public Houses serving food, a Veterinary Practice and a playing field hosting a variety of sports activities including football, tennis and cricket. There is also a well supported Village Golf Society. The Village also has Scout, Cub and Guide packs and an excellent Village Primary School as well as a number of play, nursery and toddler groups for young mums.
Importantly the Village has a mainline railway station with fast, regular commuter services up to London (Paddington) in well under the hour via Reading (20 minutes) and up to Oxford. On the Southern edge of the Village is an impressive Viaduct designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel in 1840. The late Poet Laureate John Masefield lived at Lollingdon House located just to the West of the Village. The Parish Church of St Mary’s, built in 1130, has some of the finest Norman work in the district, including an unspoilt early English chancel and in the church yard can be seen the grave of Agatha Christie.
The historic old market town of Wallingford on Thames, granted a charter in 1155 by Henry II is within easy reach and offers a wider and more comprehensive range of shops and amenities, including a new large Waitrose Supermarket as well as a family owned departmental store.
Property description
29 Reading Road is a beautifully presented Victorian terraced house, originally built for the staff of the former hospital “Fairmile” within Cholsey. In recent years, the property has benefitted from sympathetic renovation and extension including a newly fitted kitchen at the rear and double glazed sash wooden windows. Other period features of the property include cornicing, ceiling roses, stripped floorboards and cast fire fireplace.
Entrance is under a tiled front gabled porch and through a pretty glazed front door into the hallway. There are stairs to the upper and lower floors. On the ground level is a cloakroom and lower hall takes you into the living room with dining area. The sitting room has an original fireplace and a large window looks out onto the terrace and garden beyond. There is a dining area and then door leads directly into the kitchen. The kitchen is fully fitted with shaker style units and wooden worktops. The flooring is limestone tiles and it has underfloor heating throughout. 2 large Velux windows provide masses of light into the room and French doors lead directly onto the terrace, offering a perfect opportunity for “al fresco” living. There is a bedroom on the ground floor and it has a beautiful exposed brick chimney breast with a wood burner. Upstairs, there are 2 further double bedrooms, both with built-in storage and a luxurious bathroom with slipper bath and separate shower plus airing cupboard. Modernised to a high standard and showcasing Victorian architecture, an early viewing is advised
Outside
At the front of the property, a low picket fence with gate takes you through to the front garden with pretty border and lawn area. A path leads to the entrance door. The main garden is at the rear with lovely terrace coming off the back, providing a wonderful seating area. There are fabulous views going across the fields and towards the river. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with borders running along the sides with flowers and pretty planting. There is a greenhouse in the middle of the garden and 2 sheds situated at the far end, then a path takes you to the back of the car-port. The car port is oak framed with pitched tiled roof. There are 2 open parking bays with useful storage above and the access directly from the car ports into the garden is a real benefit.
