This extended family house provides almost 1500 sq ft of accommodation and occupies a substantial plot that provides a garden of over 100' in depth as well as ample off-street parking. The accommodation is versatile and provides up to four bedrooms, including a self-contained residential annex. The house was comprehensively refurbished and refitted a few years ago and remains in good order throughout. Both primary and senior schools are within a five-minute level walk whilst Watlington High Street is no more than 10 minutes from the house.
Watlington is reputedly England’s smallest town with its origins dating from the 6th century. The town has a range of sports facilities that embrace football and cricket as well as tennis, squash and bowls. There are good local shops including a first class butcher and delicatessen and some excellent restaurants and pubs. Watlington Primary school and Rainbow Corner day nursery and pre-school have an ‘outstanding’ ofsted rating and senior education is provided by the well-regarded Icknield Community College. The Chiltern Hills rise above the town and offer some of the finest landscapes in south-east England. There is much on offer here for outdoor enthusiasts, cyclists and walkers as The Icknield Way (Ridgeway National Trail) passes close to the town. Watlington is also the heartland of the re-introduced Red Kite that now soar above the town’s roof tops.
