About this home
This three bed semi detached property is now available, with no chain.
This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home is offered to the market with no onward chain and is ready for immediate occupation. Having been comprehensively refurbished and rewired approximately five years ago, the property has been well maintained throughout and offers a practical layout, generous storage and excellent future potential.
The property is entered via a hallway which provides access to the principal ground floor accommodation. Positioned to the left is the living room, featuring a bay window to the front aspect, while the dining room enjoys views over the rear garden and direct access via sliding doors. Located at the end of the hallway, the fully fitted kitchen offers ample storage and workspace and also benefits from access to the garden, creating a practical flow for everyday living and entertaining.
On the first floor are three bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate W/C. One of the bedrooms benefits from fitted wardrobes, providing useful built-in storage. The property also features a boarded and insulated loft, offering substantial additional storage space.
Externally, the property enjoys attractive and well-maintained gardens to both the front and rear, designed for ease of upkeep while still providing generous outdoor space. The rear garden can be accessed directly from the house as well as via side access.
A particular feature of the property is the unusually wide side passage. This provides excellent scope for extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents, with a number of neighbouring properties having undertaken substantial side and wrap-around extensions.
The property also benefits from a larger-than-average garage with power, painted interior walls and an insulated ceiling, offering flexibility for storage, hobbies, a workshop or potential alternative uses. Alongside the garage is a substantial run of three interconnected storage sheds, providing excellent additional storage, while a separate utility outbuilding houses the boiler and washing machine. Together, these outbuildings offer a rare level of practical storage and versatility.
Forest Road is a quiet residential road within the popular Risinghurst area of Headington. A range of local shops, amenities and everyday conveniences are within a short walk, while Thornhill Park & Ride and regular bus services, including routes to London, Heathrow and Gatwick airports, are approximately ten minutes away on foot. The area is also well placed for access to the Oxford hospitals, Oxford Brookes University, Headington's commercial centre and Oxford city centre. The nearby ring road network and A40 provide convenient links to the M40 and surrounding areas.
