Hampden House is a beautiful Grade II Listed Georgian town house occupying a wonderful position in the centre of Watlington. The property has been transformed by the current owners to provide excellent reception rooms, a stunning kitchen/dining area with views over the garden and stylish bathrooms. The accommodation is arranged over four floors. On the ground floor the front door opens into the principle reception room with wooden floors, exposed brickwork, a wood burning stove and large sash windows. From here there are two openings providing access to the beautiful and recently extended kitchen with open plan dining area. This area benefits from vaulted ceilings and a number of roof lights making the space wonderfully light and spacious. The attention to detail and the quality of finish is clear to see with limestone floors, two sets of French windows opening onto the garden, a box bay window with window seat, beautiful arched doors and sash windows complimenting the original Georgian features of the house. Beyond the kitchen is the utility room with separate sink and downstairs W.C. The house also benefits from a cellar providing useful storage space. On the first floor there are 2-3 generous bedrooms all with fitted wardrobes and feature fireplaces and they are served by the recently re-fitted family bathroom. On the second floor the principal bedroom suite has a 'Jack & Gill' bathroom and fitted wardrobes. There are a further two bedrooms with access to the bathroom via the landing. One of these bedrooms is currently being used as a study which is bright, offers lots of storage and great views out of the window. It could also be possible to convert the loft subject to planning permission.

Outside the attractive walled garden is secluded and offers complete privacy. It has a natural stone patio ideal for al fresco entertaining, a water feature and flower beds stocked with a variety of mature shrubs and trees. There is an area of lawn and a shed providing further storage space.
