Description

DESCRIPTION Dating from 1912, this handsome, double fronted, semi-detached house has recently been extended by the current owners to create a unique home with a perfectly balanced combination of period charm and modern living. The superb cantilevered glass and oak extension to the rear of the house, provides an abundance of natural light and fabulous spacious rooms over the three floors and open plan living on the ground floor. There has been extensive use of bespoke European oak throughout, as well as underfloor heating on all three floors, clean air mechanical ventilation heat recovery systems and numerous other features together with providing a high-spec building shell. The house was once home to the great-grand daughter of Charles Darwin, who planted many of the trees in the garden.

The kitchen/breakfast/family room, to the rear of the ground floor, provides superb family/entertaining space with a large area for dining and impressive oversized glazed sliding oak framed doors to the garden. There are two traditional reception rooms to the front of the house - the drawing room with open fireplace and a study. A large open plan sitting room with open fireplace in the middle of the house connects to the kitchen/dining/family area. Off the hall there is a cloakroom and separate WC with shower. A spectacular oak and steel staircase winds up through the house rising to the first and second floors with an abundance of natural light provided by glazed panels and roof lights.

The first floor provides a fabulous master bedroom suite, which enjoys a lovely outlook to the rear over the garden. The suite comprises a large walk-in wardrobe and a separate room with en-suite bath/shower room and a dressing/sitting room space. A second bedroom is arranged at the front of the house (presently used as a study) with a dressing room/study off. Also on the first floor is a laundry room, part of which could be adapted to become an en-suite shower room to the second bedroom. The second floor provides a perfect space for children/teenagers with two en-suite bedrooms with mezzanine sleeping decks, a third bedroom, separate bathroom and of particular note is the sitting room or further bedroom, with glazed gable end wall and ceiling providing a perfect gathering space with an abundance of natural light.

Gardens
There is a gravelled front garden with paths to the house with planting either side and a parking area. A side access leads to the rear garden which provides a particularly attractive setting enjoyed from the kitchen/breakfast/family room. It is mainly laid to lawn with well stocked borders and mature trees. There is a large paved terrace leading off the house which provides an ideal spot for outside dining. The garden is walled and has a high degree of privacy.

The City centre is within easy reach along with the glorious University Parks, with walks along the River Cherwell and Summertown, which provides all the day to day shopping facilities including bars, restaurants and a Marks and Spencer food hall.
