Summary - 44 FIVE MILE DRIVE OXFORD OX2 8HW
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Character home near Summertown cafés and outstanding local schools.
Victorian three double-bedroom semi-detached home
Light-filled Victorian semi with three double bedrooms across two upper floors, set just north of Summertown and within walking distance of Wolvercote’s green spaces. The principal reception room retains period details including a bay window and fireplace; a second reception opens to a modern kitchen-diner with island, integrated appliances, skylights and double French doors to the garden. The top-floor principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite and a Juliet balcony, while a family bathroom serves the other bedrooms.
Practical features include driveway off-street parking, a decent private garden and double glazing installed after 2002. The house is freehold, gas‑fired central heating via boiler and radiators, and offers easy access to excellent schools (Wolvercote Primary and The Cherwell School), Summertown amenities and Oxford Parkway.
Known issues are clear: the solid brick walls were built before 1900 and are assumed to lack cavity insulation, the EPC is rated D, and local recorded crime is above average. These are tangible factors for energy bills, retrofit cost and buyer peace of mind. Overall, the property will suit a family seeking character and location who are willing to invest modestly in energy improvements and modernisation to maximise long-term value.
