Property description

The property lies in this most sought after location and has extensive accommodation over three floors. Internally all the rooms benefit from excellent natural light with the house enjoying an east / west orientation.

To the ground floor there is a entrance lobby with cloakroom and a large reception hall running the width of the house. The kitchen / breakfast room is to the front with a cream Aga and central island unit and overlooking front garden. There is a sitting room to one side and this leads through to a utility room with door to the side of the house. The main reception room overlooks the garden and is a very impressive room being approximately 28ft by 24ft and with wood burning stove and two pairs of French doors to the garden. The dining room is adjacent with bookshelves and French doors to the garden.

To the first floor there is a generous landing with the main bedroom enjoying lovely views over the garden. It has a walk in wardrobe as well as large ensuite bathroom. There are four further bedrooms, two with ensuite bath / shower rooms and a further bathroom. There is also a separate WC. The top floor provides an exceptional open plan living space, ideal as a gym, cinema room or office. It is very light due to a number of Velux roof lights and has two large eaves storage rooms. In addition there is a bedroom and bathroom. The planning permission provides for an extension to the ground floor rear off the dining room and large basement. The permission would be to relocate the kitchen / breakfast room to the ground floor and for the basement to be used as a gym, wine store, plant room and stores. This would add a further 1335 sqft making a total of 6995sqft.

The rear garden is most attractive and is laid to lawn with well stocked herbaceous borders either side and flanked by a number of mature trees. There is an external WC. The front garden has double wooden gates with gravel drive for parking with pretty garden to one side and path to the side of the house. There is access to the garden from both sides of the house.

Chadlington Road is a prime residential road in central north Oxford. It is very well positioned for Oxford's excellent range of schools, with the Dragon and Oxford High School within walking distance and St Edward's, Magdalen, Headington Girls School, and Wychwood all within easy reach.

There is good access to all the day-to-day shopping facilities of Summertown, including Marks & Spencer, cafes, artisan bakers and restaurants. The Nuffield Health and Racquets Club is on Woodstock Road, and there is also the Ferry Sports Centre in Summertown. Slightly further afield are the more comprehensive amenities of Oxford city centre. The Woodstock and Banbury roads join directly to the Oxford ring road connecting to the A40 and M40 to London. The Oxford rail station has regular services directly to London Paddington (approximately 52 minutes), and Oxford Parkway station has services to London Marylebone (about 55 minutes).
