4 bed detached house for sale

Jack Straws Lane, Headington OX3.

A spacious family home with exceptional potential on prestigious Jack Straws Lane.

Built by Brempton Homes in the 1980s, this four-bedroom detached residence sits on a generous plot along the ever-popular, tree-lined Jack Straws Lane. Offering excellent potential, the home provides well-proportioned accommodation throughout and is ideally positioned backing onto a tranquil area maintained for the benefit of wildlife.

The property features four double bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities, along with a family bathroom serving the remaining bedrooms. A beautiful galleried landing enhances the sense of space on the first floor.

The ground floor offers versatile and spacious living areas, including a double-aspect living room with a feature fireplace, with connection for a modern gas fire, a separate dining room adjoining the kitchen, and a study that could also function as a guest bedroom. A cloakroom completes the ground-floor layout.

The front and rear gardens are extensive. The rear garden has new fencing and a greenhouse. Ample driveway parking is available, complemented by a large double garage providing additional parking or valuable storage space.

The property has seen important updates, including installation of a Worcester Bosch system boiler (hot water tank) two years ago with eight years’ warranty remaining, recent works to the roof and relaying of paths and patio. Internally, the home would benefit from modernisation and improvement, offering a fantastic opportunity for buyers to create a superb family home in a highly sought-after location.
