Summary - 2, Forest Road, Headington OX3 8LF
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious plot, driveway, garage and south-facing garden — ideal for family extension..
Wider-than-average plot with side and rear extension potential (subject to planning)
Set on a wider-than-average plot on the edge of Headington, this 1930s semi offers straightforward family living with genuine extension potential (subject to planning). The house retains original touches such as wood‑block hallway flooring and sealed fireplaces, combined with modern comforts including gas central heating and double glazing. A long private driveway and detached garage provide rare, practical off‑street parking in this area, while the rear garden faces south and enjoys good daylight.
Internally the layout suits a family: two separate reception rooms on the ground floor, a kitchen, cloakroom and three bedrooms with a single family bathroom upstairs. Rooms are average for the era — practical and comfortable but not oversized — making the home a good candidate for modest reconfiguration or an extension to increase living space. No onward chain means a quicker sale process for a buyer ready to move or start works.
Buyers should note this is a period property with solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation and some features (sealed fireplaces, original fittings) that may need attention or modernisation. Planning is required for any side/rear extension. Overall, the house is best suited to a family or purchaser seeking a renovation/refurbishment project with scope to add value, rather than someone seeking a fully modernised, move‑in ready home.
