Set on a generous, private plot in the heart of Shutford, this three-bedroom detached house offers substantial scope to create a comfortable family home. The village setting delivers countryside views, very low local crime and fast broadband — useful for commuters and home-workers. Off-street parking for 5–6 cars, a large detached garage and additional outbuildings provide practical storage and workspace options.
The property has several ready improvements: a partly renovated contemporary extension with wood burner and patio doors, boarded loft with good headroom, and recent upgrades to the boiler, hot water tank and water softener (2020). The house benefits from double-glazed windows and electric underfloor heating in the bathroom and third bedroom, plus multiple control panels for zoned heating.
Notable work remains. The extension is unfinished and will need completion; some windows are older double glazing (pre-2002) and the cavity walls have no added insulation (assumed). Heating is oil-fired rather than mains gas which affects running costs, and there is a single main bathroom for three bedrooms. Tenure details are not confirmed. Buyers should allow budget for finishing the extension, improving insulation and possible modernisation throughout.
This home suits a family or buyer seeking a project in an attractive, affluent village close to Banbury. With sensible investment it can be transformed into a roomy, well-appointed house with flexible outbuildings for a gym, office or hobby space.
