Large private garden, studio and parking close to Oxford city centre.
Large private rear garden, not overlooked
Tucked away in Elms Rise, this four-bedroom detached chalet bungalow offers a rare combination of space, privacy and convenience for family life. The house sits on a large, fully private rear garden not overlooked — ideal for children, gardening and outdoor entertaining — and includes a separate home studio for remote working or creative projects.
Internally the layout is flexible: two reception rooms, a converted loft providing extra living space, and useful undercroft storage beneath the house. Gas central heating and double glazing (installed post-2002) provide efficient, modern comforts. The front driveway accommodates about three cars, easing day-to-day parking in this sought-after Botley location just 1.7 miles from Oxford city centre.
Practical considerations: the property dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and will suit buyers seeking a well-proportioned family home that may benefit from cosmetic updating and modernisation in places. Council tax is above average. Local schools are a mix — several good and independent options nearby, while one local primary is rated 'requires improvement'. Broadband and mobile signals are strong and flooding risk is low.
This home will particularly suit families who need space and outside privacy close to Oxford’s amenities and transport links, and buyers who welcome the scope to update interiors over time to add value.
