Light-filled living with garden backing onto recreation ground, close to transport links.
Extended at ground floor and into the loft, creating extra living space
A well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached family home extended at ground and loft levels, with a light open-plan ground floor and a master suite overlooking the recreation ground. The property offers three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a garage and driveway parking, and a south‑east facing rear garden that backs directly onto the recreation ground – ideal for families who value outdoor space and easy supervision.
Situated just inside the ring road, the house provides quick access to the A34, the city centre, Templars Shopping Park and the nearby science and business parks. Practical running costs are supported by an EPC C and mains gas central heating; broadband and mobile signals are strong, and council tax is described as affordable.
The plot is modest and the home is typical of the 1930s–40s suburban build with pebble-dash fronting and bay windows. It is presented for immediate occupancy but the small garden and built footprint limit large-scale extensions. The local area is classified as privately rented new arrivals and crime levels are average; parents should note a range of local schools nearby, including several with Good Ofsted ratings and one secondary rated Requires Improvement.
This is a sensible, comfortable family purchase for buyers needing convenient commuter access and outdoor amenity rather than a large plot or substantial period restoration project. It may also appeal to professionals working at the nearby business and science parks who want easy travel links to Oxford and beyond.
