Summary - 7 FORTNAM CLOSE HEADINGTON OXFORD OX3 7TH
5 bed 3 bath House
Large extended family house with garden lodge and private mature gardens in Headington cul-de-sac.
Significantly extended five-bedroom semi-detached house
This substantially extended five-bedroom semi offers generous, versatile living across three floors in a quiet Headington cul-de-sac. The house combines period character—parquet floors and a mid-century fireplace—with a large, open-plan country-style kitchen/dining room that opens to private east-facing mature gardens. A purpose-built oak-clad garden lodge provides ancillary accommodation, a study and a shower room, useful as a guest suite or home office.
Practical strengths include driveway off-street parking, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (installed before 2002), and a sizeable overall footprint (approx. 2,904 sq ft) suitable for family life and flexible working. The location is convenient for Headington amenities, major hospitals, Oxford Brookes University and several highly regarded schools.
Notable considerations: the house was originally built 1930–1949 with solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, and the older double glazing and period fabric may benefit from thermal upgrades for energy efficiency. Crime levels in the immediate area are recorded as high, which should be factored into security planning. Council tax banding is not specified. Overall, the property suits families seeking substantial indoor and outdoor space with ancillary accommodation, but buyers should budget for potential insulation, glazing and energy-efficiency improvements.
