Checkendon is a charming village with a rich history, mentioned in the Domesday Book and known for its stunning countryside and vibrant community. Families will appreciate the excellent local state schools, including the renowned preschool and Checkendon Primary School as well as the nearby Langtree School for secondary education. Other secondary schools include Woodcote, Erlegh Chiltern Edge, Gillotts and Maiden. There are renowned prep schools nearby including St Marys School in Henley, Rupert House School, and The Oratory Prep School. Secondary options include Queen Annes School Caversham, The Oratory, Shiplake, Leighton Park School and Reading Bluecoat. A local bus service provides transportation to most of these schools, including to schools in Abingdon.
The supportive and friendly community makes this village an extraordinary lifestyle choice. The local area offers a wide variety of country pubs including The Cherry Tree, The Rising Sun, and the Crooked Billet in Stoke Row, The Black Horse in Checkendon and The Highwayman. For those budding equestrians, the village has its own Equestrian centre and polo fields. Furthermore, there is an award-winning farm shop within walking distance of the house, which has a coffee shop.
The village benefits from strong transport links, with easy access to the M4 and M40 motorways. For commuters, the train stations at Reading and Goring offer fast services to London Paddington, making the capital reachable in under an hour. Wallingford 7.5 miles away has a range of eclectic shops and antique outlets, a Waitrose, and a Lidl. Also for groceries, Henley on Thames (8.1 miles) has a Tesco superstore and large Waitrose and Woodcote, 2.7 miles away has a co-op.
Henley on Thames is one of England’s best known and most attractive of market towns with a variety of sporting facilities, private clubs, restaurants and world-renowned events such as the Henley Regatta. The historic centre of Oxford is just 20 miles away.
This unique property offers an unrivalled blend of historical charm and modern luxury, all within the beautiful Oxfordshire countryside. We love the fact that the adjacent property is a paddock, part of a polo equestrian estate, and so the views from a number of bedrooms and reception rooms are rural, whilst this home offers the convenience of being within a quintessentially English village and community.
