3 bed terraced house for sale

Portcullis Drive, Wallingford OX10

Set on Portcullis Drive, just off Reading Road, this three-bedroom terrace is one of the best examples of its kind i’ve seen locally in recent years. It has all the advantages of a newer-build home, but with a layout and feel that avoids the usual compromises.

The first surprise is the hallway. It’s spacious. No stepping straight into a staircase, no awkward bottleneck at the front door, no immediate sense of “where do we all put coats and shoes?” and that matters.

The kitchen is a lovely room. Nicely finished, with a softer, cottage-style feel than you often get in homes of this age, and with views both to the front across the green and out to the garden behind. It feels settled and very homely.

The sitting room is equally well judged: Cosy and comfortable, with double doors opening onto the garden. It’s the kind of room that works for a quiet weeknight as it does for a house full of people on a Saturday.

Upstairs, there are three good bedrooms. The current owners have adapted things cleverly to make home working easy without turning the house into a permanent office, so the flexibility is there without losing the feeling of it being a home.

For storage this house comes with built in wardrobes in two of the bedrooms, large bathroom cabinets, a boarded loft space and the garage, meaning you are not short of options to keep rooms clear and tidy.

Outside, the garden is a real strength. For a modern terrace, it’s an excellent size and gives you options; space for children to play, room for garden furniture and a separate area at the back that’s made for summer evenings and a drink once the day is done.

The house has it's own garage and it's own dedicated parking space, so no fighting to get parked at the end of the day.

Portcullis Drive itself is a small development found along Winterbrook and built in 2018. It is extremely well placed being just a five minute walk into Wallingford town centre. You can also head to the Thames Path just as easily for riverside walks to Cholsey & Benson and you’ve got the gp surgery and a bus stop close by too.

Overall this is a very smart house in a convenient spot, well designed, well kept and ready to enjoy from day one.
