Description

This three-bedroom detached house presents a valuable opportunity for renovation, located on a well-regarded and accessible street. Although the property requires modernisation, it features an entrance hall leading into two separate reception rooms, a kitchen, rear lobby, and a shower room on the ground floor. The first floor offers three bedrooms, providing a solid foundation for further development. The outdoor space includes an enclosed front garden with side access to a rear garden predominantly laid to lawn, punctuated by a useful outbuilding that could serve multiple purposes. This layout allows for potential enhancements that can transform the space into a personal oasis or functional area. Ferry Road is conveniently situated just under a mile from the city centre, easily reachable via St Clements Street and Magdalen Bridge. Nearby recreational facilities include local parks and scenic walking and cycling routes along Mesopotamia Walk beside the River Cherwell. The location is further enhanced by proximity to key amenities such as hospitals in Headington and Oxford Brookes University, both within roughly one mile. Local conveniences are just around the corner, with essential services like a newsagent, public house, and nursery school close by. Additional amenities including a Co-op store, chemist, and post office are located half a mile south on Old Marston Road. This property not only provides immediate residential comfort but also significant potential for long-term value enhancement through thoughtful renovations in an area known for its accessibility and growth prospects.
