An attractive end-terraced late Victorian three bedroom house with off-street parking located in this popular residential side road just half a mile from central vibrant Summertown in North Oxford.
A charming family house in a central position close to Summertown and with the benefit of driveway parking, a larger than average garden, a useful studio annexe, triple garage and potential for extension and a loft conversion, subject to planning and building regualtions consent.
The house is well-presented throughout with excellent decorations, carpeting and flooring. The modern kitchen has an integrated fridge and freezer, electric oven, ceramic hob, extractor hood, freestanding dishwasher, washing machine and dryer and a useful larder cupboard. The sitting room has a box-bay window, Art-deco-style fireplace with coal-effect gas fire, fitted cupboards and shelving and original cornicing. The dining room has a picture window towards the garden and shelved storage area under the stairs.
There are two good-sized double bedrooms to the first floor, along with a large single bedroom and a smart half-tiled bathroom.
The annexe is located to the end of the garden and provides a large studio room, fitted kitchen and shower room. The property has its own gas central heating and electricity supply and would be an excellent home office, hobby room or annexe for a family member. The annexe windows are timber single-glazed casement windows.
The garages are in a block of three sitting opposite the annexe and have a power supply and metal up-and-over doors. Due to the narrow width of the paved accessway across the garden, it is unlikely that the garages can be used regularly for parking cars but provide excellent storage and potential for other uses, subject to planning.
The south-facing rear garden is mostly paved with separate sitting areas and flower beds with mature shrubs. There is access via a 5-bar gate to the side of the house. There is also a front garden planted with mature shrubs. In addition to the off-street parking, owners are entitled to park in the permit parking on-street spaces.
