This deceptively spacious Edwardian semi offers generous, well-planned living across three floors, marrying period character with contemporary fittings. The ground floor provides a large reception with a multi-fuel stove and an open-plan kitchen and family room that flows to a low-maintenance west-facing walled garden — ideal for indoor‑outdoor family life.
All three bedrooms are double and benefit from ensuite facilities; the principal suite includes a private roof terrace and there is a high-ceiling loft conversion on the second floor. Modern touches include a quartz-topped kitchen with breakfast bar, double glazing installed post-2002 and fast broadband and mobile connectivity — useful for home working.
Practical points to note: the property is built as solid brick (c.1900–1929) and is assumed to lack wall insulation, so prospective buyers should expect potential improvement works to upgrade thermal performance. The plot is small, parking is not specified, and Council Tax is Band E (above average). Flood risk is low and the location benefits from excellent commuter links, nearby Oxford Parkway station and highly regarded local schools.
This home will suit families or professionals seeking a characterful yet contemporary house in highly desirable Lower Wolvercote — a short walk from Port Meadow, local pubs and good schools. It offers immediate comfort with clear scope to personalise and improve energy efficiency.
