Description

This four-bedroom detached family home, available for the first time in over 40 years, presents an exciting opportunity for renovation and investment. Situated on a generous corner plot, this property boasts significant potential for development (subject to planning approval), with an additional 50m² of adjacent land that may be negotiated separately. The spacious layout includes an integral garage and a resin-bound driveway suitable for multiple vehicles. Inside, the property features a welcoming hallway leading to well-proportioned living spaces. The dual-aspect living room is bright and airy, featuring durable laminate flooring and a contemporary gas fireplace. Glazed double doors conveniently connect the living area to the adjoining dining room, which offers ample space for entertaining. The kitchen is notably expansive but requires modernisation; however, it contains high-quality timber built-in units that could be updated affordably with new doors and worktops. Upstairs, you'll find a light-filled landing with loft access and four bedrooms, including a primary suite with fitted wardrobes and access to a recently updated Jack and Jill ensuite bathroom. The exterior includes secure storage sheds along with a large wrap-around garden featuring both patio and lawn areas. There’s potential to extend or enhance the garden by clearing some existing hedges and shrubs. Located in Kennington Village, this property combines rural charm with excellent transport links to Oxford and Abingdon, ensuring convenience alongside community amenities like shops and schools. A clear vision for renovations can transform this house into a dream family home or profitable rental investment.
