Summary - 63, Vicarage Road, OXFORD OX1 4RE
5 bed 2 bath Terraced
Character-filled home with garden and extension potential near central Oxford.
Five double bedrooms across three storeys
A substantial five-bedroom Victorian terrace arranged over three floors offering generous reception rooms and flexible family accommodation. The property retains many period features including stained-glass shop doors, fireplaces, sash windows and stripped floorboards, giving immediate character and charm. Its south-facing rear garden and the possibility of a rear extension (subject to planning) add useful scope to increase living space.
Located in quiet Vicarage Road, just over a mile from Carfax and central Oxford, the house works well for families who want easy access to city schools, parks and amenities, or for investors seeking a centrally positioned rental with strong demand. The ground floor’s wide former shop/sitting room and separate dining room create scope for a variety of layouts including home-working space or short-term rental conversion, subject to consents.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the property is in an area with a High risk of river flooding, although the current owners report no floods in 35 years. There is no private front garden and parking is by on-street permit only. The house has an EPC rating of D, some double glazing but assumed solid brick walls with no built-in insulation; further energy upgrades may be needed.
Overall this is a characterful, centrally located home with clear potential to modernise and extend. It will suit those who value period detail and location and who are prepared to address flood risk considerations and energy-efficiency improvements.
