4 bed detached house for sale

Main Road, Broughton OX15

Situated within this popular area, this detached Victorian family home which is believed to date back to 1864, has been sympathetically updated and enlarged to provide character accommodation arranged over three floors. The property is constructed of local ironstone beneath a slate roof with double glazed leaded light mullion windows (to the older part of the building) and oil fired heating. On the ground floor, the main front door entrance is beneath an attractive canopied porch although in practical terms, the rear entrance is primarily used. This leads into a hallway giving access to the ground floor rooms. The fitted kitchen and breakfast room has a range of sage green coloured base and eye level units with wooden work surfaces and space for domestic appliances. In addition there is a separate utility and shower room. The dining room features a brick fireplace with a timber mantle, beamed ceiling and a quarry tiled floor. A stained glass door gives access to the front entrance. The sitting room features a fireplace with wooden surround and inset log burner and a wooden floor. On the first floor the principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room and an en-suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms serviced by a larger than average family bathroom with a tiled floor that features a roll top bath, separate shower cubicle high flush W.C and vanity sink.

Outside

The property is approached from the Wykham Lane. A single width driveway provides parking for several vehicles leading to a detached double garage with up and over door and power and light connected. The garden has been thoughtfully planned into different sections of interest including lawned areas, a good size patio area set within retaining gabion stone walls and well stocked perennial flower and shrub borders. Further sections are divided into a cottage garden style ensuring colour throughout the seasons, all of which are framed by established hedgerows and large trees. There is also a kitchen garden with raised vegetable planters and a greenhouse. Within the garden there is a sauna and garden store. In all, 0.33 of an acre.
