Property Details

Extended and refurbished by the current owners, this stylish three-bedroom semi-detached home offers approximately 825 sq ft of light-filled, well-balanced accommodation across two floors. It seamlessly blends period charm with high-quality contemporary finishes throughout, and benefits from elevated views towards the surrounding countryside, including Wytham Woods.

The ground floor welcomes you with an entrance hall and practical under-stairs storage, where a new condensing boiler (still under warranty) is located, leading into a bay-fronted living room with a feature fireplace, built-in cupboard, and bespoke shelving.
The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen/diner, part of a recent full-width rear extension, featuring real wood flooring, integrated appliances, clean lines, and wide sliding doors opening directly onto the rear garden. As part of the full ground floor refurbishment completed in 2022, there is the addition of a shower room, new radiators, and a highly flexible layout ideal for guests, homeworking, or future-proofing for multi-generational living.

The first-floor accommodation consists of a landing, a principal double bedroom that enjoys a bay window. A second double bedroom, a single, and a family bathroom complete the first floor. The loft has been professionally boarded, offering storage space and potential for future conversion, subject to planning.

Externally to the front, the property offers off-street parking for two vehicles via a gravelled front garden. A wide-gated side passage, with plenty of space for storage, leads to a well-maintained rear garden, mainly laid to lawn with borders and a raised patio, perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Why the owner loves the property:
One of the things we’ve loved most about living in Hutchcomb Road is the sense of space and calm. The large kitchen/diner has been the heart of our home, perfect for entertaining friends and family, with room for everyone to relax, cook, and catch up. It’s where some of our favourite memories have been made.

The location is something truly special. It’s rare to find somewhere that feels so peaceful and clean, yet is within walking distance of both Oxford city centre and beautiful open countryside. Whether we’re heading into town for a coffee or escaping into nature for a weekend walk, everything we need is right on the doorstep.

The neighbourhood itself is warm and welcoming. We’ve been lucky to have genuinely lovely neighbours, friendly, respectful, and always happy to lend a hand or stop for a chat. There’s a real sense of community here that we’ll miss deeply.

It’s a home that strikes the perfect balance between convenience and tranquility, and it’s been an absolute joy to live here.
