Description
Dating from the turn of the 20th century, this most attractive semi detached house is beautifully presented throughout and boasts spacious, well-proportioned extended accommodation arranged over three floors. The house benefits from an attractive, well-established landscaped garden to the front with off street parking. The rear garden enjoys a westerly aspect and has been beautifully landscaped with a wealth of plants, a water feature and a further off street car parking space. A thoughtfully designed Victorian style greenhouse by Country Greenhouses complements the rear garden. An Anderson Shelter is still present.

The elegant and spacious home retains many of its period features throughout, including fireplaces and high ceilings with cornicing. The ground floor has an inviting entrance hall with stairs leading to the first floor and the main reception rooms leading off. To the front is a spacious sitting room with a fireplace and a range of fitted bookshelves. The rear of the house has been extended in a very stylish way to provide an open plan kitchen/dining room and a covered veranda. The room has a central island unit, appliances by Miele, Siemens and Gaggenau and an excellent range of units by Rempp including wine storage and coffee station. There is full width glazing overlooking the garden which maximises light into the kitchen. The ground floor also has a tv/playroom.

At first floor level are the principal bedroom with refitted en-suite bathroom, two further bedrooms (one of which is currently used as a fitted dressing room), and the family bathroom. A further two bedrooms occupy the second floor, one of which has a range of fitted home office furniture.

Situation

Both Park Crescent and Park Road are private roads with a strictly enforced residents' parking policy. Bus stops serving Oxford are located within a few minutes’ walk of this house.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
