Set on a sought-after Headington street, this extended five-bedroom semi-detached house offers substantial family living across three floors with a separate studio/annex. The property sits on a decent plot with an off-street paved driveway and a private rear garden — useful for families or professionals needing space and parking close to Oxford’s hospitals and universities.
Internally the home benefits from an L-shaped kitchen/breakfast room, a spacious reception, two bathrooms and versatile attic accommodation. The current owners have extended and enhanced the property, including a modern loft extension and double glazing installed post-2002, creating bright, practical living space and useful loft storage.
Practical points to note: the kitchen is functional but dated and will suit buyers prepared to modernise; cavity walls were built without insulation (assumed) so further energy improvements may be needed. The area has above-average crime levels, which some buyers will want to factor into their decision. Council tax is very low for the area, and transport links, local shops, and highly regarded schools (including Headington School for Girls) are within walking distance.
This house will suit growing families, healthcare professionals, or investors seeking a larger home close to Oxford’s amenities and hospitals. With scope for cosmetic updating and energy-efficiency improvements, it offers clear potential to increase comfort and value.
