Property description
A charming and extended three/four bedroom Edwardian property dating back to 1897 which has been in the ownership of the vendor for the past 32 years. This family home offers comfortable accommodation with the potential for further refurbishment and extension (subject to the usual planning consents). The accommodation is arranged over four floors and comprises on the ground floor; entrance hall, sitting room (presently being used as a bedroom), dining room, kitchen, garden room and downstairs bathroom. There is access from the kitchen down to a useful cellar/storage area. On the first floor there are three well-proportioned bedrooms plus access via a loft ladder to a boarded and carpeted loft space which has served as a study for the vendor in the past and offers potential for further conversion into additional bedroom accommodation (subject to the usual planning consents). To the exterior of the property there is a front garden and a delightful rear garden which is laid to lawn with trees, an abundance of flowers and shrubs, garden shed and a rear access. This superbly situated property offers a combination of character features for example sash windows, period fireplaces as well as modern conveniences such as double glazing and solar panels (which can work independently of the boiler if required to provide all the hot water for the property).
This property is situated in a desirable and quiet side road with immediate access across to Sunnymead and Cutteslowe Parks (both parks joined by a bridge erected in 2002) and offering 42 hectares of superb parkland which appeals to families for walking and for the variety of sports facilities on offer, pet owners and those just seeking a sense of tranquillity. 17 Water Eaton Road is also close to the excellent amenities of Summertown including local shops, supermarkets, restaurants and bars with a regular bus service to the more comprehensive facilities of Oxford City Centre, University Departments and a range of schools for all ages. There are rail services to London Paddington in approximately one hour from Oxford mainline station and from the coach station at Gloucester Green there are frequent buses to London Victoria, Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted airports. This property also benefits from being just a mile and a half from the Oxford Parkway Railway station which gives excellent access to London (Marylebone).
