A rare find - 2 bedroom Edwardian end of terrace with garage and side access in a favoured road, requiring complete modernisation and renovation. NO CHAIN

If you were to choose the suburb of Oxford in which to live, the Jericho area of Oxford would be competing for top slot. Within a mile of your front door is a diverse selection of parkland, schools, shops, eateries and bars, plus both a mainline London-bound rail station and trunk roads to reach each compass point. And yet unlike many urban areas the plots are larger, there's little passing traffic, and the houses have a feeling of good space around them. As a place offering both urban convenience with a more village feel, there are few rivals.

Jericho... What is there to say? The most cosmopolitan part of Oxford? Excellent and diverse amenities ranging from ethnic boutique shops to Raymond Blanc's brasserie to great independent schools. This subdistrict of Oxford has almost every possible advantage including access to Port Meadow, a 400+ acre piece of delightful pasture land entirely open to the public. Many consider it one of the best areas to live in the South of England let alone Oxford.

Walking into the house the hall is long with the stairs rising off to the left. A large cupboard occupies the under stairs space, and other doors lead to all the rooms. On the right the first of two doors brings you into a large living room with a box bay window to the front, this has an original fireplace currently equipped with a gas fire. Open to the rear is the dining space which is a similar size, it also features a fireplace, and both rooms have lovely tall ceilings. At the rear a central glazed door is flanked by further windows and the door leads into a wood lean-to conservatory which looks straight down the garden. Adjacent to the hallway the kitchen includes a door out to the garden and adjacent to it are two attached storage spaces, one of which would originally have been the outside toilet and the other most likely the coal house.

Upstairs the landing is well lit with a sash window to the front. Storage is catered for with a large overstairs cupboard and there is also a loft space. Both bedrooms are a very good size, with large windows both providing a pleasant outlook, and both are served by a good size bathroom. Subject to consents there is potential, as has been done with neighbouring properties, to expand the property into the loft. However as this property is at the end of the terrace we believe there is potential for further extension.

Outside, the garden is walled and extends to nearly 50 feet in length. Immediately behind the house is a terrace and this leads down to a small area of lawn surrounded by various shrubs and trees. There is a gate to Hayfield Road to the side and also a garage with a dropped kerb in front.
