Set back on a private lane in the Headington Quarry Conservation Area, this individually designed detached house offers flexible, family-focused living across multiple levels. The layout includes five bedrooms, two family bathrooms and a cloakroom, plus generous storage and a large, south-facing garden ideal for children and outdoor entertaining. Driveway parking adds everyday convenience, and the property is sold chain free for a quicker move.
The house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and displays distinct mid‑century features — large windows, exposed beams and a flat‑roof silhouette — that give strong character but may need sympathetic updating in places. The living areas are spacious with high ceilings and abundant natural light, while some original finishes hint at refurbishment potential for a buyer wanting to personalise the home.
Practical points: the EPC is rated D, broadband speeds are slow and council tax is high; these are relevant for budgeting. As the property lies within a conservation area, exterior alterations and certain extensions may be subject to planning restrictions. The sizeable, productive garden with fruit trees and privacy from mature planting is a major asset for family life and entertaining.
Nearby amenities include well‑rated primary and secondary schools, local shops, green spaces and good public transport links into Oxford. This home suits families seeking a distinctive, spacious house with a large garden in a quiet, affluent neighbourhood, and buyers should allow for updating and conservation area considerations.
