Overview

The garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature and well-established border trees and native bushes, wrapping around the perimeter of the house

A Striking detached residence set in mature and private grounds of 0.8 acres. Set central to the plot and discreetly located up a private drive, the property is a one off architect designed, detached house built in the early 1960's. Characterised by its very light and spacious accommodation the house enjoys generous proportions over two floors and a wealth of potential to modernise and extend subject to planning permission. Approaching the house from the private drive, one is immediately struck by its scale and position within substantial grounds and the Cotswold stone details. The house has a conventional layout with a welcoming central hallway with the principal reception spaces off. The main reception room is a sitting room with views to both the front and the rear, traditional herring bone wood floor that extends to the hallway and dining room, and a Cotswold stone open fire-place as the centre piece. There is a study at the front, a wc off the hall and at the rear a dining room and kitchen with a utility room off. At the front there is also an integrated double garage. The upstairs has splendid views and is composed of four well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main bedroom is a good size with an adjoining dressing room and an additional en suite bathroom. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature and well-established border trees and native bushes, wrapping around the perimeter of the house. At the front there is a large driveway for several cars. A purpose-built detached garden house is adjacent to the house and could be converted into a home office. The property is set on a private drive and well back from Cumnor Hill, enjoying a great deal of peace and privacy. Cumnor Hill is located to the west of the city of Oxford.
