Abberbury Road, Oxford, Oxfordshire OX4

The house occupies an elevated position on the road and extends to circa 3,000 sq ft (277 sq m) with flexible accommodation arranged over three floors, perfectly suited to modern family living, multi-generational occupation, or those seeking extensive home-working space.

It is approached via a welcoming entrance hall with a cloakroom which leads to an open-plan double reception room at the front of the house, enjoying an attractive bay window to the front and double doors to the rear. This room provides ideal spaces for formal entertaining, family relaxation, or a separate playroom.

At the heart of the home is a superb 30ft open-plan kitchen/dining room, creating an outstanding family hub with ample space for cooking, dining, and socialising. The kitchen is complemented by a generous utility room, a further reception room offers additional versatility with stairs to a first floor study. In addition, there is a ground-floor bedroom suite with adjacent shower room, and a sudy/office providing excellent annexe potential for guests, dependent relatives, or independent teenagers.

The first floor comprises four well-proportioned double bedrooms, all of a generous size, with one currently arranged as a study. Two particularly spacious double bedrooms enjoy attractive aspects, with one overlooking the front of the property and the other benefiting from views over the rear garden. The accommodation is completed by a family bathroom.

The second floor is arranged as an impressive principal bedroom suite spanning almost the entire level. This features extensive storage, a luxurious bathroom with both bath and separate shower, and an adjoining dressing area.

The gardens lie mainly to the rear with well-stocked herbaceous borders and pleached hornbeam hedging giving way to a large lawned area flanked by mature trees. At the front of the house, there is a delightful garden with the drive and parking spaces to the side.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and exceptionally versatile Oxford family home combining expansive living space with excellent flexibility in one of the city's most desirable residential locations.

The property is located on Abberbury Road in this sought-after part of Oxford. Although close to the historic Iffley Village Conservation Area, the property itself lies outside the Conservation Area and is therefore not affected by the additional planning controls. Nearby Iffley Village is characterised by a blend of period houses and offers an excellent range of local amenities, including a well-patronised village shop, three public houses, a beautiful Norman church and a hotel.

The Thames is a short walk away at Iffley Lock and there are walks amongst the meadows and along the towpath to the rail station and central Oxford.

The village is well placed for communications, with junction 8 of the M40 and access via the southbound ring road and the A40. There are also excellent nearby bus services, including a direct route to Oxford railway station. A few miles this side of junction 8 is the Thornhill Park and Ride, which has a frequent coach service to London. There are frequent train services from either Oxford, Didcot or Oxford Parkway. Oxford city centre is less than two miles away, and the property is well placed for all the popular Oxford schools.
