3 PROPERTY DESCRIPTION Greenacre originally dates from the late 1930s and is of traditional brick cavity construction under a pitched tile roof with twin projecting front bays either side of the front entrance. In more recent years the property has been extended and improved to afford more versatile and spacious accommodation, notably with the addition of a versatile garden room overlooking the garden and super amenity afforded with attached garaging / workshop. Given the size and arrangement of the generous mature and private garden plot, it is thought there to be clear potential for further enlargement and alteration of the existing accommodation to be carried out to suit ones own individual requirements subject to the relevant planning approval. NB. The property is approached across the forecourt of a car sales and repair garage which fronts onto the Goring Road, with Greenacre being one of two individual bungalows located tucked away at the rear. At the bottom a private five bar gated entrance leads into the property itself. OUTSIDE The property is approached off the village road over the forecourt of a garage and then over a private driveway which leads to Greenacre, situated at the further end. A wide, private five-bar gated entrance opens onto the extensive, brick paviour driveway which extends across the front and down the side of the property. Further double gates open through into a wider brick paviour courtyard area, onto which fronts the garaging and adjoining outbuildings. The gardens and grounds are split into two halves either side of the property, surrounding the main building attractively and affording a delightful private aspect to be enjoyed in abundance. To both sides of the property, mainly lawned gardens are broken up with mature hedging, trees, and planted flower beds, and benefit from delightful patio terracing perfect for Al Fresco dining. Discretely to one corner of the garden is a well established vegetable garden. A true delight, in all the gardens and grounds extend to approximately 0.40 of an acre.
