Property description
A fantastic opportunity to purchase a North Oxford family home with scope for modernisation and renovation, in this sought after location close to a main bus route that runs between the centre of Oxford and Kidlington. The property is within walking distance of around one mile to the main high street at Summertown, as well as Oxford Parkway mainline station, Cutteslowe and Wolvercote Primary Schools and The Cherwell Academy.
This three storey townhouse-type property is located in Harefields, just off the Banbury Road to the north of Summertown. The property requires redecoration and renovation throughout, but represents a wonderful and increasingly rare opportunity to find a property in this area that you can still ‘put your own stamp on’.
The front door opens into a hallway, with stairs to the first floor. There is a ground floor WC and a large cupboard housing the oil fired boiler. There is a Day Room to the rear with doors into the garden; originally this was Bedroom 3, and could be a third bedroom again with the simple reinstatement of a partition wall and door.On the first floor there is a Living Room and Kitchen, which could both benefit from redecoration and renovation.On the second floor are two double Bedrooms and the main Family Bathroom.
Outside the property, there is driveway parking to the front leading to the integral garage, which has up-and-over door, internal light and power. To the rear, there is a garden measuring approximately 9m x 3.5m.
Harefields is situated in North Oxford, just to the north of the A40 Ring Road Cutteslowe Roundabout, and runs from Banbury Road through to the northern part of Cutteslowe (or as it was intended to be called, the Templar Estate for those that remember!), where there is a good convenience and grocery store with post office, hairdressers and doctors surgery, as well as access to the large and picturesque Cutteslowe Park. Oxo’s Café is located at less than a mile away, on nearby Islip Road, for breakfasts, lunches, teas, coffees and small general groceries. Oxford Parkway mainline station, with fast trains direct to London Marylebone, is situated at around 1 mile away, and the main high street at Summertown, with its range of independent shops, bars, cafes and restaurants, as well as several small supermarkets, library, theatre and leisure centre with swimming pool and gym, is also just over 1 mile.
