London Road, Wheatley, Oxfordshire

The epitome of retro chic in a practical, family home.

This extended semi-detached home is full of retro style but has all the elements essential to modern family life. Step through the front door and you enter a world of vintage charm featuring a tiled fireplace to the sitting room, an English Rose modular kitchen (a design classic made of aircraft grade aluminium originally made in the factory that produced the Spitfire aeroplane) and a stylish bathroom refitted with an Aqua green suite. But don't be fooled - this is no museum exhibit - the house is a well-proportioned and well balanced, working family home with a wonderful kitchen/dining space providing a superb social space, separate sitting room, a utility room, ground floor shower room in addition to the bathroom, and three first floor bedrooms.

Outside, the gardens complement the house beautifully. To the front is a sizeable lawned area with two miniature apple trees (both with a significant amount of fruit) creating a pleasant outlook and giving good screening from road. A footpath leads to the front door and also to the side of the house and the rear garden. Immediately behind the house is a paved terrace, partially covered by a pergola planted with a productive vine, giving the perfect space for al-fresco entertaining. Wooden sleeper steps, flanked on one side by a well-stocked herb garden, lead to an area of lawned garden to one side of the brick pathway and a vegetable and soft fruits garden to the other. At the head of the garden is a timber-built summerhouse/store and a detached, double garage accessed via a driveway running to the rear of the properties. There is also private driveway parking for several vehicles. The garden measures approximately 65ft (19.73m) in length to the rear and has a sunny, south westerly aspect.
