Upstairs, two well proportioned bedrooms continue the property's characterful appeal with original timber flooring and an abundance of natural light. The family bathroom serves the first floor accommodation, while the overall layout provides an excellent opportunity for purchasers to personalise and further enhance the home over time.

Outside, the enclosed rear garden has been thoughtfully designed for low maintenance enjoyment, with areas of lawn, gravel pathways and established planting creating an attractive outdoor space. A particular highlight is the substantial detached outbuilding to the rear, offering exceptional storage for bicycles, kayaks and leisure equipment, or the potential to be utilised as a workshop or hobby space.

Location:

The property is ideally situated in a highly sought after area popular with medical professionals and academics, offering excellent access to Oxford City Centre and a wide range of local amenities. The John Radcliffe Hospital, Churchill Hospital, Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre and the surrounding medical facilities are all within easy reach.

There is an excellent selection of primary and secondary schools nearby, including the newly built Swan School on Marston Ferry Road and Headington Rye Oxford.

Positioned just off Marston Road, the property benefits from exceptional connectivity. To the north, Headley Way provides access to a local parade of shops including a Co-op and a variety of cafés and eateries, together with convenient routes to the A40 and Oxford ring road. To the south, Marston Road leads directly towards Headington and St Clement's, home to Oxford Brookes University and the beautiful South Park, renowned for its panoramic views across Oxford and its year round programme of community events, including the annual firework display.

St Clement's also offers regular bus services into Oxford city centre together with direct coach links to London Victoria, Heathrow and Gatwick airports. For those who enjoy the outdoors, New Marston Recreation Ground is only a short walk away and provides scenic pedestrian and cycle routes through the meadows into the very heart of Oxford.

In The Owners Own Words:

We enjoyed the fact that the property retains some character, and that it is very conveniently located within Oxford, permitting us to walk or cycle into the city centre easily, or to use public transport into the city centre or London. Given that it is a terraced house with double glazing, and wall/loft insulation we found that energy bills are lower than expected, and a small combi boiler was sufficient for heating the space. The woodburning stove added to a cosy feel in winter, and the conservatory permitted entertaining even on rainy days. The large secure shed (6m x 2.4m) provided ample bicycle and leisure equipment storage, so we were always ready for a cycle into the city, or a kayak outing onto the River Cherwell on sunny Sunday afternoons.
