Planning Permission Granted for Double Storey Extension Stunning Far Reaching Views Elevated Plot of 0.28 Acres With No Onward Chain Two Double Bedrooms Driveway & Carport Single Storey Semi-Detached Property Countryside Position Situation The picturesque village of Streatley on Thames nestles in a valley on the Berkshire side of the river, lying between Reading and Oxford and facing Goring on the Oxfordshire side.

Surrounded by countryside designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it sits at a historic natural crossing of the river, where the Berkshire Downs meet the Chiltern Hills - a landscape known as the ‘Goring Gap’.

Just across the river, the larger village of Goring-on-Thames offers a comprehensive range of amenities, including shops, a modern health centre, traditional inns, a hotel, library, and dentist.

Crucially, Goring has a mainline railway station providing excellent commuter links to Oxford, Reading, and London (Paddington).

The area benefits from easy access to major towns such as Oxford, Reading, and Newbury, as well as the M40 and M4 motorways - the latter providing a direct route to Heathrow Airport.

Crossrail (the Elizabeth Line) services now run from Reading, and together with the electrification of the railway, have significantly reduced travel times to destinations east and west.

Streatley is home to the well-regarded Streatley Primary School.

The village falls within the catchment area of ‘The Downs’ - an outstanding secondary school that provides a dedicated bus service for students.

Alongside excellent local state schooling, the area is superbly served by a wide range of private schools, including Cranford House School, The Oratory Preparatory School, Moulsford Preparatory School, St Andrews Preparatory School, The Oratory School, Pangbourne College, Brockhurst & Marlston House, Downe House, Rupert House School, Shiplake College, The Abbey School, Bradfield College, The Manor Preparatory School, Abingdon School, Abingdon Preparatory School, Radley College, and St Helen & St Katharine.

Streatley’s charming High Street forms the heart of the village, stretching down to the river and the bridge crossing to Goring.

This central area is now a Conservation Area, boasting a wealth of period properties, many with notable architectural merit.

Highlights include a thatched cottage, a stunning William and Mary house, and an Elizabethan farmhouse reputedly haunted by a lady in white.

When Isambard Kingdom Brunel built the railway through the Thames Valley around 1840, the villagers of Streatley chose to locate the railway on the Goring side.

As a result, while Streatley itself has changed little, Goring-on-Thames has grown considerably and is now the larger village.

Within Streatley, you’ll find a parish church with Norman origins and The Swan, a luxurious four-star riverside hotel that also offers a leisure and fitness club.

At the top of the High Street stands the Bull Inn, once an old coaching inn where the Royal Mail would stop on its route between Oxford and London.

The village also boasts a prestigious golf club, established over 100 years ago, set amidst beautiful rolling countryside.

Behind Streatley, the land rises sharply where the Berkshire Downlands meet the expansive Thames Valley. From these heights, there are panoramic views stretching deep into Oxfordshire.

The surrounding woodlands and hills have recently been acquired by the National Trust, with an extensive network of bridleways and footpaths now open to the public.
