Summary - The Old Bakehouse, Crumps Butts OX26 6EB
3 bed 2 bath Terraced
Large plot with outbuilding offering conversion potential close to town amenities.
Three double bedrooms with en-suite and family bathroom
A stone-built former bakehouse in central Bicester, this three-double-bedroom mid-terrace combines immediate liveability with clear development upside. The main house offers living and dining rooms, a functional kitchen, two bathrooms, and a small rear garden that leads to a substantial outbuilding/garage with significant conversion potential (subject to planning). Previous provisionally approved mixed residential proposals exist, but any new application must be submitted to Cherwell District Council.
Important transactional and physical facts are stated plainly: the property is offered via Modern Auction with an undisclosed reserve, buyer fees and a non-refundable reservation fee apply, and completion is typically required within 56 days. The building has an F energy rating, oil-fired boiler and radiators, likely uninsulated cavity walls, and double glazing of unknown age. These factors mean immediate energy and heating upgrades will be necessary to improve running costs and comfort.
This is best suited to investors, developers or buyers comfortable with a project. The outbuilding could be converted into an annexe, studio or separate dwelling (STPP) to add value, while the central town location and nearby amenities make lettable demand realistic. Note the area records higher-than-average crime levels and the buyer must perform full due diligence and check all technical and legal details in the Auction Buyer Information Pack.
Viewing and bidding parties should budget for renovation costs, possible planning works, and the auction-related fees. For a buyer able to manage planning and refurbishment, the combination of a large overall site, central location and previous planning history presents clear potential for uplift.
