19, Marlborough Gardens, Faringdon, SN7 7DE

19 Marlborough Gardens is a mature end-of-terrace family home, which has been extended over the years to provide spacious and flexible arrangement of accommodation over two floors and benefits from having the kitchen, bathroom, utility and cloakroom replaced in the last few years.

On the ground floor is an entrance hall leading to a sitting room which is triple aspect, fitted with a gas fire and with patio doors to the rear garden.

Across the hallway is a separate dining room with a fireplace and to the rear is the kitchen, which has been re-fitted in the last few years with a modern shaker style kitchen with inbuilt double oven and hob.

A rear hallway provides access to a modern cloakroom, utility room and to the rear garden.

On the first floor are five good-sized bedrooms, most of which are doubles, and a family bathroom which is fitted with a re-fitted white suite, comprising a panelled bath with shower over, WC and wash hand basin.

Externally there are mature gardens to the front and the rear of the property with the rear garden extending to around 67 ft; it is mainly laid to lawn with a lovely sized patio area.

The historic market town of Faringdon, dating back at least to the 12th century, has a thriving community and amenities such as the Leisure Centre, Library, Faringdon Community College, The Elms and Folly View primary schools as well as The Old Station Nursery, doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries and The Place Family Centre.

Buses travel from the town to private schools at Abingdon. The town now boasts three large supermarkets.

Faringdon is also ideally positioned for the A420, leading to the A34, M40 and M4 and mainline railway services from Swindon, Oxford, Oxford Parkway and Didcot Parkway.

There is a frequent bus service through the town from Swindon to Oxford and back, linking to rail services and airports.

The Tower on Folly Hill was built by Lord Berners in 1935 and affords panoramic views across four counties.

For over 20 years, the town has been twinned with Le Mêle-sur-Sarthe in France and more recently with Konigstein im Taunus in Germany.

In 2004, Faringdon became the first Fairtrade town in the South East of England.
