Property description
The present owner was looking for a modern apartment, in a picturesque setting, within a small community, which you could safely lock up and leave, and was thrilled to find Faringdon Court, Cholsey Meadows. It was perfect. It is a modern and stylish apartment in a converted Victorian hospital that offers a very agreeable lifestyle. The large windows, typical of the period, fill the apartment with natural light, creating a positive ambience; whilst the high ceilings give a sense of space. The open plan kitchen, living room and dining area is both spacious and comfortable, and has pleasant views. It is a welcoming home to return to at the end of a stressful day, and first time visitors are always charmed by the apartment and location. It is the excellent location that makes Faringdon Court a very special property. Its green and peaceful, rural setting is quite idyllic. The site has been designed with great care from the landscaped car park, the cricket green, allotments and community hall. For those who wish, there is an active community, and if you want a change of scenery, the surrounding area is rich in history, beautiful countryside and neighbouring towns and villages.It is a delight to stroll into the nearby market town of Wallingford along the banks of the Thames. Wallingford is a vibrant town, with independent shops, restaurants, theatre, and beautiful walks in the Wallingford Castle Meadows. The town regularly features in Midsomer Murders. The pleasant Cholsey village and station in the opposite direction is also just a one mile walk away. Cholsey station has a good service to Oxford and Reading and links to London. If you dont want to take the car or walk, there is a bus stop, within the Cholsey Meadows development.The property is suited to a single professional, couples, landlords or the more discerning buyer looking for a real lifestyle change.For the present owner, the combination of a chic home in a rural location, with the blend of nearby bustling towns and the joys of the countryside, has provided an enviable lifestyle that will be greatly missed.
