6 bed detached house for sale

Cumnor Rise Road, Oxford OX2

Situated on an exclusive private road on Cumnor Hill this distinctive four-bedroom property offers flexible accommodation over two levels, and incorporates a separate two-bedroom annex.

On the entrance level a central hallway gives access to each of the main rooms, which include a well-proportioned kitchen/breakfast room, a sitting room with balconied terrace overlooking the garden below, four bedrooms and a family bathroom, with separate w.c.

The lower level is accessed via the central staircase which leads to the self-contained annex. Incorporating a lovely sitting room with views over the garden, a kitchen, utility room, bathroom, and two good-sized bedrooms, this is a fantastic asset to the property. It can be utilised as additional living space for older children, as guest accommodation or to provide semi-independent living for older relatives. Alternatively, benefitting as it does from its own private entrance, the annex can be let as a separate property generating rental income.

The house is set within a generous plot, surrounded by mature trees. To the rear there is an attractively landscaped west-facing garden with terraced lawns and a range of outbuildings including a sizeable workshop, and a garden shed. To the front there is a gravelled driveway providing parking for several vehicles, and a single integral garage.

The amenities of central Botley at Westway Square, are approximately 800m distant, and include a post office, atm, library, supermarkets and convenience stores, florist, dry cleaner, newsagent, doctors' surgery, dentist, optician, and vet. On Saturdays there is a vibrant street market. It is ideally located for convenient access to the rail station and city centre, with regular bus services leaving from Westway Square, and the Botley Interchange of the Oxford ring road, which gives immediate access to the A34, A420 and the wider road and motorway network, is also close by. Botley is well-served by a number of excellent primary schools, and the highly-rated Matthew Arnold secondary school.

There are numerous parks, playing fields, and open spaces within easy walking distance, including Louis Memorial Fields with play area and open-air gym, and the 27-acre Raleigh Park. Local residents may also use the facilities of the Oxford Brookes University sports centre.
