Property description
Adare is an attractive double fronted detached house that provides good family accommodation yet will afford someone an excellent opportunity to further expand, as there was previous planning for a huge extension that would transform the house into a 5 bedroom/3 bathroom residence.
The property is set on a very wide plot approaching ¼ acre, with an 'in & out' driveway providing off road parking and giving access to the double width garage. The secluded rear garden has privacy provided by mature shrubs and trees with a good size area of lawn which is approached via steps from the block-paved terrace, lending itself to both entertaining and fun for the children, with lots of 'nooks & crannies' to explore.
There is a gas central heating system to radiators, double glazed windows and a lovely Amdega double glazed timber conservatory with high glass roof and under-floor heating.
Adare somewhat offers the best of both worlds; it is situated on the edge of the highly desirable village of Englefield Green which sits next to Windsor Great Park and within a 10 minute walk or so from Egham's high street which offers good shopping (Waitrose currently under construction) and main-line train station to Waterloo. Englefield Green has become one of the most sought after locations outside of London and is synonymous with luxury housing. Although in close proximity to the capital, Englefield Green maintains a rural feel with many surrounding parks and open spaces.
There are excellent transport links to London and the south east with easy access to the M25, M4 and M3. London Heathrow Airport (10 mins) and London Gatwick (35mins) are also within easy reach. Egham train station provides regular service to London Waterloo (40 minutes.).
Schools around the area include Eton College, TASIS, The ACS International School, Bishopsgate School, St Georges, St James & Hampton Boys as well as numerous other quality establishments. The area really is blessed with choice in this department and there is a school bus pick-up point at the green that services most of these.
The local area benefits from many international sporting venues including Guards Polo Club, Ascot Racecourse and Wentworth Golf Club.
