SITUATION:
Watlington is reputedly England`s smallest town, residents can benefit from the hustle and bustle of Watlington`s thriving high street; complete with, cafes, pubs and an eclectic range of independent & award-winning shops - including a first-class butchers, delicatessen, bakers and regular fruit & veg market and fishmonger.
The town has a range of sports facilities that include: football, cricket, tennis, squash and bowls, again all conveniently located within walking distance of the property. Alongside a local library there is a huge array of clubs, to suit all ages and interests. Finally, the community benefits from a lovely children`s play area, complete with a skate park and outdoor gym equipment for older generations.
The Chilterns, an area of outstanding beauty, location is definitely the dual advantage of this property. When needing to escape the property sees you firmly placed in some of the finest countryside in the southeast. There is so much on offer here for outdoor enthusiasts, cyclists and walkers, including the famous Icknield Way (Ridgeway National Trail) a mere stones` throw away.
Walking distance from the property are Watlington Primary School and Rainbow Day Nursery, both establishments awarded `Outstanding` by Ofsted. Icknield Community College provides similar well-regarded secondary education. The area is also ideally situated for some of the best schools in the country; Independent schools in the immediate area include all those in Oxford and Moulsford Prep School, Cranford House, The Oratory Prep and Public School, Downe House, Radley College, Abingdon School and the European School in Abingdon, Wycombe Abbey for Girls in High Wycombe, Pangbourne College, Bradfield College, Wellington College and Eton College.
Junction 6 of the M40 is within a few miles of the town providing easy access to the Midlands, London and the regional business centres of Oxford and High Wycombe, equally good access to neighbouring towns of Henley-on Thames, Thame and Wallingford.
