Description

This three-bedroom property in the desirable village of Wolvercote presents a valuable opportunity for those looking to invest in a home with significant renovation potential. Having been owned by the same family for many years, the house is ripe for modernization or even extension, allowing you to craft a bespoke family residence tailored to your preferences (subject to planning permission). The ground floor boasts a generously sized reception room enhanced by a bay window and patio doors leading to the garden, creating a pleasant living and dining environment. Adjacent lies a galley kitchen that could be reconfigured to optimize space and functionality. The upper level accommodates two spacious double bedrooms alongside a single bedroom and a family bathroom with an additional separate WC. Outside, the property features a mature west-facing garden, perfect for enjoying afternoon sun, while off-street parking is available on the driveway plus there’s a garage. Wolvercote combines rural charm with convenient access to urban amenities. Enjoy scenic walks along Port Meadow and Wolvercote Common while being just 1.2 miles from the vibrant shops and eateries of Summertown, and only 3 miles from Oxford's historic center. The local area is well-suited for families with excellent schools nearby and quick transport links via Oxford Parkway station for journeys into London.
