Full Details for 4 Bedroom Cottage for sale in Oxford, OX2 :

This stunning farmhouse constructed of stone and slate which dates back to c.1680 and is believed to be the oldest property in Summertown sits in a plot of c.1/3 acre and has been extensively and sypathetically refurbished by the present owners. Character features have been preserved such as original floors, stone mullions, and cast iron guttering, whilst updating of the heating, wiring, plastering, re-pointing and re-furbishing of the bathrooms and shower rooms have taken place. On the ground floor the accommodation comprises: entrance hall, bespoke kitchen by Mark Hewlin, inner lobby, dining room, with a view into the stone- mullioned inner courtyard, sitting room with exposed original floor separated from the study by an attractive log burner in the fireplace and one of the two staircases in the property rises to the first floor from the inner hall/ tv/family room. Along the hall there is a utility, shower room and small inner lobby leading to a rear courtyard on the right. To the left is the Victorian music room with French doors opening out onto the patio. An oak staircase leads down to the tanked cellar refurbished approximately 1 year ago presently used as a music room. The original staircase by the front door leads up to the first floor and to four double bedrooms and two bathrooms. To the exterior an expanse of lawn dotted with individual patios and seating areas leads you to the recently constructed garage with solid Oak doors and fully lined with light and power. Then to the rear of the garage is a substantial storage shed for all the garden implements. The original Victorian Summer house still remains and can be compared and contrasted with the newly constructed Victorian style garden room/home office with its television, computer, telephone, light and power points. This is just the place to shelter from the summer showers whilst enjoying not only the main garden but a `secret` garden to the rear of it. Not only can the discerning buyer appreciate the care that has been lavished on this property but also the fact that this `hidden gem` is minutes away from the amenities of Summertown. It truly has the `feel of the country` with the benefits of town living (it is indeed `rus in urbe`). There are a number of excellent schools within easy walking distance including The Dragon School, Oxford High School for Girls, Wychwood School for Girls,St Edward`s School & Summerfields School. The property is also in the catchment area for The Cherwell School. The property provides excellent access to the centre of Summertown with its range of shops, restaurants and other facilities including library, health and sports centres and at just over a mile from the City Centre, is connected by frequent bus services along the Banbury and Woodstock Roads. The City provides a wide range of recreational and cultural facilities including theatres, restaurants and museums while Oxford Mainline Station provides a commuter train service to London (Paddington) with inter-city services to other parts of the country. The coach station at Gloucester Green offers frequent bus services to London Victoria, Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted airports.
