Chalfont Road, Oxford, Oxfordshire OX2

Stylish period home with impressive studio lying in west facing garden in this enviable location.

Description
Built in 1897 to a design of hw Moore, this striking house has been significantly reconfigured and imaginatively extended and now provides an exceptional home of modern style and character. With a flexible and practical layout arranged over three floors, it is ideally configured for family living and entertaining, those looking to downsize and suitable as a lock-up-and-leave. It is also complemented by a fabulous studio in the garden. The centrepiece is the stunning kitchen/dining/family room, which is light and spacious and enjoys an outlook over the landscaped garden through large windows and French doors. There are two separate reception rooms in the main house, with a third in the studio. Also on the ground floor is a cloakroom and a utility room leading out to a secure side passageway with bike storage.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom has a box bay window to the front and an en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and overhead finished attic space, and a family bathroom. On the second floor is a nicely proportioned attic bedroom with under-eave storage.

The superb studio at the end of the garden provides substantial ancillary accommodation, with an open plan sitting area with a lantern rooflight and a kitchen with hob, sink and refrigerator. The first floor of the studio has a bedroom with an en suite shower.

There is off street parking to the front of the property with additional ample on-street parking. The appealing west facing walled rear garden is particularly attractive. It is laid to astroturf with a central pathway leading to the brick paved terrace, ideal for alfresco dining. There are also raised borders with olive trees to one side and espalier trees to the other. The garden also boasts a sizeable shed.
