3 bed detached house for sale

Lovelace Road, Oxford, Oxfordshire OX2

Situated in this highly sought-after North Oxford area, just north of Summertown and a short walk from Cutteslowe Park, this delightful three-bedroom detached house offers a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful home with potential to extend (subject to the necessary consents).

Set back from the road with a private driveway, the property boasts a mature east-facing garden and retains many original features.

• Front Reception Room – A bright sitting room with bay window and fireplace.

Additional features include a garden shed for storage and an outdoor WC.
