High Street, Standlake, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX29

Detached with five double bedrooms, two ensuites, multiple reception rooms and much more, all sitting on a double garage plot tucked away down a quiet cul-de-dac. Could this immaculately presented family property be your forever home?

THE PROPERTY:

The property is approached from the gravelled double driveway via a paved pathway to the front door. The front garden is bordered with an attractive iron fence and gate and the porch area is protected by the overhanging bedroom above.

Once inside you are greeted by a large and well-lit entrance hall with the benefit of a built in welcome mat - ideal for wet coats and muddy shoes. The flooring here is stunning and easy to maintain engineered oak flooring and it is from here the stairs to the first floor, cupboard under the stairs, guest cloak room, kitchen diner and playroom/ snug can be reached as well as the substantial living room.

The kitchen diner is fabulously well appointed, boasting a wide range of high quality oak fitted units to wall and floor level with a back quartz worktop over. Underfoot you will find stone tiles and integrated into the units you find the substantial Rangemaster cooker with extractor over, dishwasher and microwave all alongside deep pan draws and substantial storage besides. The dining area can take a table that could easily accommodate a large family but could be configured as another reception space. You will find the utility off of the kitchen, finished in the same stye with a second sink, housing the oil fired boiler and with space and plumbing for the washing machine and tumble dryer alongside additional storage and a stable door to the rear garden.

To the front of the house you will find a front reception room which is currently a playroom. Boasting the same engineered flooring as the entrance hall, this then carries forward into the stunning family living room with large dining area on the back of the house. The dining area benefits from a partially glazed pitched ceiling and French door with glazed side panels out onto the rear patio - bathing the area in natural light helped by its South West facing. The living room is immaculately presented, a substantial family space with more than enough room for multiple large settee’s, side boards, coffee table alongside TV furniture. The main focal point however has to be the stunning multi fuel burner flanked by stone surround and sitting on a highly attractive hearth. There are further French patio door with glazed side panels looking out over the rear patio further flooding the space with natural light.

The first floor landing is spacious, and leads to all principal first floor spaces. The master bedroom is a particular delight, with its vaulted ceiling which draws the eye to a chapel style window at the gable end. The room can comfortably accommodate a king sized bed alongside various bedroom furniture and benefits from its own suite and dressing area with built in double cupboards. The second bedroom is a further large double bedroom able to accommodate a king size bed and with the benefit of a second en-suite shower room. The third bedroom again can accommodate a king sized bed alongside further furniture and has a built in double cupboard with room for further wardrobes. Bedrooms four and five are two further double bedrooms, and either would make fine bedrooms, guest room or home offices.

The family bathroom is very well appointed, being of a large size with separate bath and shower, his and hers sinks with storage under, heated towel radiator and a smartly tiled floor.

Externally there is a double garage with pedestrian access to front and rear, side access and a good sized South West facing rear garden with lighting around the patio area and a mature lawn. The garden backs on to further gardens behind and is not overlooked.
