THE PROPERTY
Well-maintained and extensively modernised throughout by the current owners this comfortable family home dates from the 1930s but now boasts energy-saving features such as triple-glazed windows, cavity wall insulation, and solar panels.
The ground floor is pleasingly arranged as a series of interconnecting rooms that provides both a sense of flow from one to the next, as well as the option for peace and quiet when required ideal therefore, for families.
Entering through the outer storm porch door, an inner door opens into the open-plan hallway and study area with its cosy fireplace. To the left is the spacious and well-appointed kitchen with gas range cooker, and adjoining that is the dining area. There is also a side door giving access to the outside of the property. Paired glazed doors lead into the sitting room, while a further door returns to the study.
To the rear of the property is a very substantial centrally heated conservatory/garden room, and this connects by two sets of double doors to both the dining room and the sitting room. This effectively endows the house with four interconnected reception rooms, and creates a notable feeling of space and comfort. Completing the ground floor accommodation there is also a separate under-stair cloakroom.
Upstairs is the bright and sunny master bedroom with its feature double-height glazed gable end overlooking the garden, and en suite shower room. There are three further double bedrooms and the family bathroom.
Extensively refurbished over recent years, the property has been rewired and replumbed and benefits from double-glazing throughout with triple-glazing to the front, a solar panel array with hot water converter, loft and cavity wall insulation.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
The vendors are currently negotiating an Easement that allows for the creation of a new pedestrian entrance at the bottom of the garden. This will make it possible (subject to obtaining relevant planning consents) to construct a separate office building or similar from which to operate a variety of independent business activities, with access, if required, via Watson Crescent.
LOCATION
Lying approximately five miles (7.5 km) south of Oxford centre Wootton is a popular village with a thriving and active community. Local services include a supermarket, post office, pharmacy, dentist, takeaway, florist and pub. There is also an active village cricket team. It is served by an excellent primary school (OFSTED rated Good), and the state and independent secondary schools of both Oxford and Abingdon are also in easy reach.
Wootton enjoys excellent transport links too. There are regular bus services to Oxford city centre and Rail station, from which there are connections to London every 30 mins (journey time to Paddington 55mins). The A420 is close by, providing easy access to the ring road and the rest of the city and the Headington hospitals, as well as the A34 and the wider road and motorway network (M40 J9 is 19.7km away, M4 J13 42km).
There are pleasant walks across the fields in every direction to neighbouring villages with their own welcoming country pubs. To the east lies Boars Hill with its famous views of Oxfords dreaming spires, while to the west is Farmoor Reservoir and Nature Reserve which offers a range of water sports such as sailing and paddle boarding, as well as fishing and birdwatching.
This is a lovely house with plenty of space for a growing family, for entertaining and as a base for a home business. Add the large garden, ample parking, and the excellent transport links, and this represents an exceptional opportunity. Back to listing
