Location. The thriving village communities of East and West Hendred lie approx. 4 miles to the east of Wantage, providing access to the A34 and beyond, via the A417. With three superb public houses, The Eyston Arms, The Wheatsheaf, and recently re-opened The Extraordinary Hare, sports club, and traditional village store in East Hendred, rural life is further enhanced by pedestrian and cycle access to the surrounding open countryside, specifically the ancient path of the Ridgeway. There are excellent communication links and the villages boast two schools, churches, and much character. With easy access to Didcot Parkway and London Paddington only a further 40 mins by train, these picturesque villages are a haven for the commuter and fully deserve their status as arguably the most favoured in the area. This superb property lies within the conservation area that is East Hendred itself.
