This is a large family house over two floors enjoying private views over its south / east facing gardens.

It is presented in very good order throughout having been refurbished over the last 10 years by the existing and previous owners. Of particular note is the kitchen / breakfast area which has full height sash windows allowing one to walk straight out into the terrace and garden. Both the kitchen and terrace have limestone floor tiles allowing both areas to blend seamlessly. There is a suspended glazed walkway above the breakfast room connecting the master bedroom to the rest of the house. This bedroom and the garage / office space below are a later extension. The laundry room could revert to a family bathroom.

The gardens lie principally to the side and rear of the house and divided into two distinct areas. The main area lies to the rear and is laid to lawn and flanked by pleached hornbeam trees and within the garden there is a mature beech and red maple tree. There is a garden shed, part of which is converted to a wine cellar, a thermostatically controlled water tap and uplighters. There are further storage sheds and a greenhouse.
The side garden is laid out as a vegetable and fruit growing area with raised beds, mixed borders and beech hedges. To the front of the house is parking for five cars.

Sandfield Road is well located off London Road and within walking distance of all the amenities of Headington including Waitrose, Tesco and Sainsburys supermarkets, banks, restaurants and a selection of artisan coffee shops and delicatessens.
