Nestled on a shared private driveway, this period residence from 1892 presents an appealing opportunity for renovation and investment. The home spans three floors, providing ample space that can be reimagined to suit modern family needs or entertaining preferences. As you enter the welcoming hallway, two expansive reception rooms await, both featuring bay windows that invite natural light and highlight the home's original charm. One reception room is enhanced by a classic cast-iron fireplace, creating a cozy atmosphere during colder months.
Towards the rear, the separate dining room serves multiple purposes—ideal for formal gatherings or as a versatile family area or home office. The kitchen offers a generous footprint with significant potential for expansion (pending planning permissions), allowing for the creation of a contemporary family hub that overlooks the garden.
On the first floor, you'll find three spacious double bedrooms adorned with original fireplaces, alongside a well-proportioned family bathroom featuring dual-aspect windows and elegant fixtures including a free-standing bath and separate shower. Ascending to the top floor reveals a fourth versatile bedroom complete with Velux windows and an en-suite bathroom—perfect for guests or as an independent workspace.
The outdoor space further enhances the property’s appeal. The private garden is not only inviting but provides opportunities for al fresco entertaining or simply enjoying peaceful moments outdoors. At the back, a gated entrance accesses a sizable workshop equipped with garage doors and parking capabilities. This flexible space could serve as a creative studio, business base, or even be transformed into self-contained accommodation (subject to approvals).
Additionally, two practical outhouses off the kitchen offer storage solutions and include one functioning outside toilet. The garden itself is well-established with various fruit trees including apple and plum, plus a thriving grapevine out front—a perfect benefit for those interested in cultivating their own produce.
Located in Old Kidlington just five miles north of Oxford, this property strikes an ideal balance between village tranquillity and accessibility to urban amenities. Excellent transport links via bus routes and nearby train stations make trips into Oxford or beyond straightforward. Families will appreciate proximity to reputable schools at all levels along with local shops and recreational facilities that supply vibrant community living.
