Location

Goring Heath, lying a few miles east of Goring on Thames, is a scattered, rural Parish extending from the South Western edge of Woodcote, skirting round Whitchurch Hill and then South towards Mapledurham with the A329 Reading to Wallingford Road forming the perimeter along its eastern boundary. In the centre of the Parish are located the Alms houses built in a most pleasing aesthetic period architectural style, founded in 1726 by Henry Alnutt, a wealthy London barrister, and together with their historic Chapel are arranged around three sides of a cobbled courtyard. Whilst modernised in recent years, the Buildings have retained their authentic character appearance largely as they were in the 18th century, as has their unspoilt rural setting.

In addition to local well revered primary and secondary schools, locally the area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of both state and private schooling, of particular note; The Oratory Preparatory, The Oratory, Cranford House, Moulsford Preparatory, Pangbourne College, Abingdon Boys and The School of St Helen & Katharine.

The village of Woodcote is within easy walking distance with access to local shops, health centre and Post Office. Goring on Thames is but a short drive, offering established shopping centres and a range of facilities including bank, modern health centres as well as restaurants, hotels and olde worlde inns. In addition, there are mainline train services from Goring & Streatley station to both Oxford and London, with London Paddington commutable within the hour.

N.B. Crossrail services are scheduled to be commencing from Reading in 2019 which together with the electrifying of the line will significantly improve travelling times to Paddington and central London destinations.

Property description

Situated in a most peaceful and idyllic location on the quiet hilltop wooded fringe of this popular village, set in delightful gardens and grounds of approximately 1 acre, Foxfield is a simply stunning family home, built just 10 years ago, with a wholly relaxing yet engaging ambience, showcasing proudly the architectural attributes of the property, both internally and externally.

Built to an exceptionally high standard, great architectural flair is evident, with appealing whitened rendered elevations with tall glazing under a clay tiled roof. Internally, the impressive architectural contemporary note that is realised to the exterior is evident, with an inspired layout to be found, proudly boasting open plan contemporary living combined impressively with that of a rather more traditional air, that harnesses the simply stunning vaulted and glazed elements.

Opening through from the covered entrance porch and veranda, the grand galleried and vaulted entrance hall with flagged limestone flooring leads to all principle reception rooms, including the study, cloakroom, drawing room with log burner and open plan sitting room, and the kitchen / dining / family room and separate utility room, with wide bi-fold doors opening out on to the timber decked terrace, perfect for ‘Alfresco Dining’. The limestone flooring runs throughout the kitchen / dining / family room, whilst oak flooring further compliments the property, running through the drawing room and sitting room and up to turning staircase to the galleried and vaulted landing.

All main bedrooms and suites lead off the galleried and vaulted landing, in addition to the family bathroom. The master bedroom suite is quite impressive, with a vaulted and timbered ceiling complimented by wide French doors opening on to a Juliet balcony, whilst the en-suite bathroom is quite a treat, with a a luxurious fitted suite featuring a large roll top bath. There is a further vaulted 2nd bedroom suite, 3 more bedrooms, and a playroom / 6th bedroom leading off bedroom 3, which could be further utilised also to form en-suite shower rooms to both bedrooms 3 and 4 if so required.

Simply stunning and incorporating numerous attractive features throughout in such a delightful setting, early viewing is advised.

Outside

Privately situated off a small country lane on the elevated fringe of the village, Foxfield sits peacefully behind high mature hedging forming the boundary, whilst to the main entrance, tall timber electric gates flanked by high brick pillars open onto the spacious splayed entrance driveway and forecourt, providing parking for several vehicles, and leading directly to the detached double garage with loft store over.

The gravelled driveway leads off to a stone flagged terraced running up to the covered entrance porch and veranda which opens through to the grand galleried and vaulted entrance hall.

Delightfully attractive the gardens and grounds are most spacious, extending to approximately 1 acre, being laid mostly to lawn with a vast array of mature trees, wrapping their way around the property, as does the stone laid terrace which affords a larger dining terrace to the rear and leads on to a larger timber decked terrace to the side which opens directly from the kitchen / dining / family room through wide bi-fold doors, perfect for ‘Al Fresco’ dining.

To the further end of the garden, a charming timber and glazed summerhouse sits within its own gravelled garden, sheltered from the sun for the sunnier days.

Both private and delightfully attractive, the gardens and grounds are the subject of much care and attention, which will be evident upon viewing.
