5 bed detached house for sale

Clover Close, Oxford OX2

Situated immediately off Cumnor Hill is this beautifully extended and reconfigured five-bedroom home, boasting light and spacious accommodation throughout and offered with no onward chain. The property is maintained to an excellent standard, with space for three plus cars on the drive and side access to a generous rear garden, with wide countryside views over fields to the Hurst woodland beyond.

Ground Floor

The accommodation has been reconfigured and offers immediate light and space as soon as you step through the front door. Originally the dining room, this entrance hall is now a welcoming social space, comfortably accommodating a grand piano and setting the tone for the spacious reception rooms leading from it. A sitting room with an open fire is a cosy retreat during the winter months, with ample space to accommodate guests and family. A separate study with purpose-built shelving, cupboards and desk has independent access via a side-door, providing an ideal private space for anyone working from home.

The heart of the home is a large open-plan kitchen and dining area, equipped with integrated appliances and a stylish breakfast bar. A convenient door leads to a utility room with space for household appliances and further access to the garage/store enhances functionality.

The kitchen/diner flows seamlessly into a very generously sized conservatory, where most of spring to late autumn is spent, overlooking the large south-east facing rear garden and fields behind.

First Floor

A large roof light above the modern staircase compliments the entrance hall and ensures a light circulation space with easy access to a loft hatch, complete with ladder and light.

The peaceful principal bedroom features a floor to ceiling window and second window overlooking the rear garden and countryside views. Equipped with ample fitted wardrobes, this sanctuary includes a spacious ensuite bathroom. Originally the master bedroom, the generously sized second bedroom boasts its own ensuite bathroom, the standard for an executive home. There are distant views over Farmoor reservoir from this and the other front bedrooms.

Completing the first floor are two further double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family bathroom, providing plentiful space for larger families or perfect guest accommodation.
