Description

This unique three bedroom semi detached cottage enjoys an exceptional and highly picturesque setting on the banks of the Oxford Canal, directly adjoining the towpath and offering a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a peaceful waterside lifestyle with scope to make their own mark. The position is truly special, with a wonderful, raised terrace/balcony accessed from the main bedroom, providing an elevated outlook across the canal. External stairs lead down from the terrace to ground level, enhancing the connection to the outdoor space and surroundings.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and offers a well balanced layout. The ground floor comprises a characterful lounge featuring exposed beams and a log burning stove, creating a cosy focal point, alongside a separate dining room which connects through to the kitchen. The kitchen itself is positioned to the rear and provides a practical space with excellent potential for reconfiguration or modernisation. A useful ground floor WC adds convenience.

To the first floor, there are three bedrooms arranged around a central landing, along with a family bathroom. The main bedroom enjoys direct access to the raised terrace/balcony, making the most of the tranquil canal side setting. The rooms are well proportioned and offer flexibility for a range of buyers. The property would benefit from general updating and cosmetic improvement throughout and presents an ideal opportunity to personalise and enhance the home to individual taste.

Externally, the setting is a key highlight. In addition to the raised terrace overlooking the canal, the property benefits from a separate, private garden located just along the towpath. This generous outdoor space is a real asset, with gated access and a delightful outlook over the water, and currently includes a studio/chalet, perfect for home working, hobbies, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The garden also benefits from an off road parking area, providing additional parking alongside its versatility. While not directly attached to the house, it offers excellent flexibility and adds significantly to the lifestyle appeal of the property.

Further benefits include an attached garage providing useful storage or parking, along with additional on street parking available nearby. The property is offered for sale with no onward chain.

Overall, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a semi detached home in a truly idyllic canal side location, combining character, potential, and a unique setting, ideal for buyers looking to create a bespoke home in a peaceful and scenic environment.
