DESCRIPTION
The property benefits from a high degree of seclusion and uninterrupted southerly views over adjacent farmland to Wittenham Clumps. Originating around 1860 and significantly extended, Hampden House offers exceptionally spacious and light-filled accommodation designed for flexible living.
A significant feature is the potential for a ground-floor annexe, incorporating a comfortable reception room, double bedroom, and shower room, perfectly suited for dependent relatives or family members with mobility needs.
The home retains numerous original period details, including ornate fireplaces, stripped panel interior doors, wood flooring, picture rails, and deep skirting boards, which harmonise beautifully with more recent enhancements.
A generous family kitchen/dining area is accompanied by a large utility room and cloakroom.
The first floor provides five bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a practical home office/study with delightful views to the front encompassing traditional thatched homes, barns, and the church.
