The PROPERTY
The central entrance hall gives access to each of the ground floor rooms. On the right, paired glazed doors open into the welcoming dual-aspect sitting room, while to the left is the kitchen/dining room. From here a further glazed door opens on to a stunning south-facing balcony which extends across the full width of the house, and provides a pleasant outdoor dining area overlooking the garden below. Returning to the hallway, there is an additional door leading the integral garage, which is currently used as a utility room but which could be converted to become a home office, snug or additional bedroom. There is also a downstairs cloakroom which completes the ground floor accommodation.

The stairs lead up to a bright and airy central landing which further contributes to the notable sense of light and space in the house and opening on to which are four double bedrooms, including master bedroom with en suite, and the family bathroom.

GROUND and GARDEN
The property is set back from the road, with gravelled area to the front of the house providing parking for several vehicles. There is also an electric vehicle charging point. To the rear is an enclosed and private rear garden which lies below the main body of the house and is currently laid to gravel. As the house stands on a hillside, there is a sizeable undercroft beneath the balcony, and this currently provides useful storage space but it could, potentially, be adapted to create an additional lower level room.

SURROUNDING AREA
This is a wonderful location for families. The house is situated on a quiet no-through road and Shotover Park, with its 300 acres of woodland and open spaces just 950m further along the lane. Headington itself is one of the most popular districts of Oxford. The high street offers a range of shops and restaurants, as well as numerous parks, and a golf course. Headington also has some of the city's leading state and independent schools including Cheney, Headington School and Rye St Anthony. Magdelen College School is also easily accessible at the foot of Headington Hill. The university hospital complex which includes the John Radcliffe Infirmary, Churchill and Nuffield Hospitals is also located here, as well as the main campus of Oxford Brookes University.

There are excellent transport links into the city centre and being on the Eastern edge of the city with ready access to the ring road, Headington is also ideally located for those needing convenient links to the M40 and wider road network (M40 J7 is only 9 km away). Oxford Parkway rail station from which there are connections to London every 30 mins (journey time to Marylebone 55mins) is approximately 9.5km away.
