An impressive six-bedroom Tudor‑Revival detached home on Oakfield Road, set on a large private plot with gated driveway and detached garage. The house offers generous period reception rooms with bay windows, a fitted kitchen opening to the garden and plentiful natural light — well suited to a large family seeking character and space close to city amenities and transport links.
A converted basement provides a self-contained annex with private access, kitchenette, bathroom and bedroom — useful for multi‑generational living or a rental income stream. Practical modern conveniences include FTTP fibre broadband and strong mobile signal. The property sits within a conservation area and benefits from mature, landscaped gardens with several seating areas for outdoor entertaining.
Notable practical points: the house dates from c.1900–1929 and has granite/whinstone walls assumed to be uninsulated, contributing to an EPC rating of D. There are only two bathrooms for six bedrooms, and the Council Tax band is high, so running costs and potential upgrade work (insulation, heating improvements, additional bathrooms) should be factored into any offer. Trees on the plot are subject to preservation orders which will limit certain works.
This property will appeal to growing families, buyers seeking a period home with annex potential, or investors looking for a substantial near‑city house with separate accommodation. It offers strong future potential but will reward buyers willing to invest in energy efficiency and some modernisation.
