Occupying an elevated position with some of the most captivating views in the area, this detached bungalow is set within a generous plot of just under one acre (0.4 hectares) in the National Landscape (formerly AONB). South Charlton Farm enjoys a rare and highly desirable setting, with open vistas and a sense of privacy that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Approached via its own driveway and positioned toward the rear of the plot, the bungalow offers a wonderful canvas for those seeking to create a home tailored to their own vision. While the property is currently habitable, it would undoubtedly benefit from comprehensive refurbishment and, subject to the necessary consents, lends itself beautifully to extension or redevelopment to take full advantage of the spectacular surroundings. The location combines rural tranquillity with excellent convenience, being within easy reach of the historic Market Place in Wantage, with its array of independent shops, cafés and amenities, as well as the scenic Ridgeway, a haven for walkers and outdoor enthusiasts. Properties of this nature and in such a position rarely become available, making South Charlton Farm an exceptional opportunity for those looking to establish a family home in one of Oxfordshire’s most picturesque and sought-after landscapes. A viewing is strongly recommended in order to fully appreciate the setting, the scope, and the unique potential that this remarkable property has to offer.
