OX1 5DX
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Substantial family home with scope to extend near top schools and Oxford.
Large 1.12 acre private garden with mature specimen trees and summer house
Set on a private no-through lane, this substantial five-bedroom detached house occupies 1.12 acres of mature, sheltered gardens. The well-proportioned principal rooms include three reception rooms, a garden room linking to a double garage and workshop, and a kitchen/breakfast and utility on the ground floor. The property sits back from the lane behind electric gates and a large gravel parking area, offering excellent privacy and off-street parking.
Upstairs are five bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and three bath/shower rooms (one en-suite). The workshop includes a spiral wine cellar and offers practical ancillary space that could be converted to additional accommodation, subject to necessary consents. There is clear scope to extend the house, again requiring planning permission, so the house will suit buyers wanting to add value or personalise a large family home.
The gardens are a major asset: sweeping level lawns, specimen trees, a sun terrace, summer house, greenhouse and espaliered fruit trees provide extensive outdoor amenity and privacy. The location on Boars Hill is semi-rural yet just four miles from central Oxford, with fast rail connections and easy access to the A34, M4 and M40. Several highly regarded independent and state schools lie within easy reach, making this particularly suitable for families.
Practical points: the house is freehold and in a very affluent area with low crime and no flood risk. Council tax is described as very expensive; any extension or conversion will need the usual planning and building consents. Mobile signal is average but broadband speeds are fast. The property is presented as a substantial, traditionally detailed family residence that will reward upgrading or sensitive extension.
