About this home

Situated in Henwood, between Cumnor and Wootton, the property presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a family home with scope for improvement. While the property has been well maintained, it would now benefit from updating, allowing purchasers to create a home tailored to their own tastes and requirements. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and provides versatile living space. On the ground floor, a welcoming entrance hall gives access to a generous living room with bay window, separate sitting room overlooking the rear garden, kitchen/dining room, study, shower room and two double bedrooms. The layout offers excellent flexibility and may suit those seeking predominantly ground-floor living.

The first floor is devoted to a particularly spacious principal bedroom with extensive built-in storage and an adjoining bathroom.

Outside, the property enjoys attractive and secluded gardens predominantly arranged to the rear, providing a pleasant setting with plenty of space for keen gardeners and families alike. A detached double garage with an inspection pit, and separate outbuilding/workshop offer excellent storage and potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents. Ample off-street parking is available on the driveway.

SITUATION Situated approximately 6 miles south-west of the City of Oxford, Henwood is situated on the edge of Wootton Village, close to the highly regarded Boars Hill area. Wootton provides a range of everyday amenities including a parish church, primary school, public house, parade of shops and community centre. Nearby Cumnor offers further village amenities, including a parish church, two public houses and a village shop, with the property also falling within the catchment area for Cumnor Church of England Primary School. In addition to the extensive facilities available in Oxford, the historic Thames-side town of Abingdon, approximately 4 miles away, offers a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and recreational amenities. For sailing and water sports enthusiasts, Farmoor Reservoir is also within easy reach. The area is particularly well regarded for its excellent selection of both state and independent schools.

Communications are excellent, with convenient access to the A34, linking to the A40 and M40 motorway networks. Rail services are available from Oxford (London Paddington) Oxford Parkway (Marylebone) and Didcot Parkway (approximately 11 miles), offering regular services to London Paddington from around 40 minutes.
