House For Sale £525,000
Sitting in an exceptionally secluded and generous plot, a pretty 1930's former Officer's house set well back behind a deep front garden on a tree-lined side road. The house has huge scope (STPP) for both renovation and extension. NO CHAIN.
Heyford Park is a vibrant, growing development with a new school, gym, Sainsburys, and a speedily increasing range of new amenities. Surrounded by glorious farmland, it has all the advantages of a rural village combined with the accessibility of a town. Rail access is excellent with Lower Heyford village, just a mile away, having a station feeding to Oxford and London Paddington, Bicester North station is 6 miles East with frequent trains into London Marylebone, a journey that takes as little as 40 minutes at peak times. Road links are also straightforward with both the M40 and A34 a short drive away.
Number 11 Larson Road is one of the small number of original 1920s officers houses in the development as befitting the rank of the original occupants, it is set a long way back from the quiet road outside, with a generous garden to both front and rear. The property is dated inside, although in more recent times there have been many improvements, ranging from double glazing through two new electrical system. While some capital investment is required to bring it up to modern standard, to us, this is a plus. Who wants to buy somebody else's test when they can renovate to their own?!.
The long path leads down through Dandelion, dotted lawns, leading from the tree-lined Avenue to a front door. Once inside, tiled hallway, leads to a staircase behind the split halfway up where a large window floodlight onto both floors. I thought the window to the side of the hole also conspires to make this a right house in any weather. Under the stairs is a large store cupboard, and the left the hallway leads to all downstairs rooms past another deep store cupboard.
The cloakroom is the first room to the right. A more modern white WC is in contrast with the avocado sink and vanity unit. Further down the hall, the broad kitchen is a considerable size, with the utility room open plan to its right side. Both rooms are dated, but the dimensions are generous and the position overlooking the rear of the garden is very pleasant indeed. This offers huge scope for simple updating, or equally expansion to something really impressive. The side door opens into a large single storey area at the side of the house, built to provide generous storage. Two store rooms, plus a broad hallway leading from the front garden to rear (enclosed and roofed) could easily be converted into something more alluring, as has been done with others on the same road.
The main living spaces are really pleasant. A large living room contains a broad front window that is light and bright, with a lovely, peaceful view over the tree lined road to the front. An original prewar fireplace still remains, an unusual feature. The dining room to the right was originally accessed via double doors, a very much prewar feature. Those have been removed to make the two spaces, integrate more freely, resulting in a pretty massive living space.
Upstairs, landing the same bright positivity as elsewhere. First on your right, the WC and the bathroom are still separate, a trend popular from its era. However, we would suspect it makes great sense to amalgamate the two, which would result in a very good size how many bathroom. And just next to the bathroom in the hall is a large airing cupboard complete with tank.
All three bedrooms are very good sizes. The smallest is a generous double by most modern standard. Windows to 2 sides, make it bright and interesting, and it's practical as well as there is a double wardrobe integrated to one corner. Next door, another generous double this time looks out over the pretty garden behind. There's also features an integrated double wardrobe. The main bedroom mirror is the size of the living room below it, hence it is ample, light and attractive. As elsewhere wardrobes are integrated, however, a further set has also been fitted hence, there is very generous storage throughout.
Outside, as previously touched on this house is in a lovely position within a generous block. The front garden has a wide expanse of lawn is a couple of trees, giving it a miss more mature feeling, and there is ample space to park both in the bay to the right hand side, and more generally on the unrestricted quiet road outside
The gate on the right hand side leads through into into Lovely, regarding that is mainly lawned, with some very pretty mature trees, fenced in to all sides, safe for children, and animals, as it is both long and west facing There is great natural light on most of it all year round. It's also worth noting that was such a generous plot. We see no reasons why the house could not be extended quite generously desired. If this would be of interest, please ask us to put you in touch With an architect we trust.
