Braemar – A Semi-Detached Home with Scope to Improve and Extend (STPP)

A three-bedroom semi-detached family home offering two reception rooms, garage, driveway, and generous rear garden, presenting an excellent opportunity for modernisation and future extension (subject to the usual planning consents).

Braemar is approached via a private driveway providing off-road parking and access to a garage, with a front lawned garden setting the property back from the road.

The ground floor accommodation begins with an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor. To the front of the property is a well-proportioned living room, featuring a stone fireplace and large window providing good natural light. To the rear is a separate dining room, with double doors opening directly onto the garden, creating an excellent connection between indoor and outdoor space.

The kitchen sits between the dining room and is fitted with a range of units, with scope for modernisation or reconfiguration. From the kitchen there is access to a useful utility room, which in turn provides a door to the rear garden ideal for families or those looking to create a practical boot room or extended kitchen space.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three bedrooms, comprising two generous doubles and a third single room well suited as a child’s bedroom, study, or home office. Bedrooms one and two both benefit from built-in storage. The accommodation is served by a separate bathroom and WC, offering potential to combine into a larger contemporary family bathroom if desired.

Externally, the rear garden is of a good size and enjoys a paved seating area, lawn, mature boundaries, and useful outbuildings including a shed and greenhouse. The plot offers clear potential to extend or remodel, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.

Overall, Braemar represents a fantastic opportunity for purchasers looking to update and personalise a home, with generous proportions, a practical layout and excellent potential to enhance and extend in the future. Early viewing is recommended to fully appreciate the scope on offer.

Merton is a well-regarded and attractive Oxfordshire village, situated in open countryside to the north-west of Bicester. The village offers a peaceful rural setting while remaining conveniently placed for access to nearby market towns, transport links and everyday amenities.
