Abundant natural light, generously sized rooms, and original features such as elegant staircases, decorative fireplaces, and classic sash windows create a sophisticated yet warm and fairy-tale like atmosphere. The current owner has paid particular attention to ensure energy efficiency while still maintaining the character of this early 20th century home.
Upon entering the property, you are greeted by the spacious entrance hall, leading seamlessly into the front sitting room, where a large bay window bathes the room in natural light. The decorative fireplace and wooden floorboards add to the charm this room exudes. To the right sits the study, which also benefits from another bay window, creating the perfect work-from-home or office space. From here, the property flows into the drawing room, which features another grand fireplace and wooden floorboards, and into the bright and airy dining room beyond, where the garden can be accessed from the double patio doors.
The light-filled kitchen/breakfast room, with its dual sinks, shaker style wooden cabinets, and large kitchen island containing plenty of storage, creates the ideal space for cooking and entertaining. Another set of double doors lead out to the patio area, perfect for alfresco dining or a summer soiree. This floor is completed by a utility room, a downstairs shower room, and an additional room which could be used as a playroom featuring parquet flooring and a tiled fireplace, with separate outside access via the side of the house.
Leading upstairs to the first-floor landing, beautiful stained-glass windows trickle coloured beams of daylight through each panel, which have been carefully double-glazed to ensure energy efficiency. The principal bedroom boasts an ensuite bathroom with a standalone tub, a set of two matching sinks, and a separate shower, plus a private balcony overlooking the lush garden. Two further ensuite bedrooms, one of which also has a garden-facing balcony, complete this floor, along with another double bedroom with a feature fireplace and a spacious family bathroom. An additional large bedroom with dual aspect windows sits on the top floor, as well as a family bathroom and loft space, ideal for guests or larger families.
Sympathetically restoring its original Edwardian character over the years, the current owner has truly transformed this property into the elegant family home that it is today.
Outside
The property is approached via a private driveway providing plenty of off-road parking. Mature, well-tended gardens frame the front of the house, adding to its welcoming appeal. To the rear, a generous south-facing garden offers a tiled patio area, an idyllic place for outdoor entertaining, while the manicured lawn and established planted borders provide a calming oasis.
Situation
Situated in the heart of the North Oxford Victorian Conservation Area, Lathbury Road is within easy reach of both Port Meadow and the University Parks. This property enjoys a prime location with convenient access to central Oxford, the vibrant communities of North Oxford and Summertown, and excellent transport links. Oxford city centre and the mainline railway station are both within a mile, while Oxford Parkway station lies to the north, offering further commuter options. The area is ideally positioned for access to many of Oxford’s highly regarded schools, such as Summerfields, St Edward’s, Dragon school and Oxford High. Nearby Summertown offers a lively mix of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, an artisan bakery, and a charming bookshop — all contributing to a vibrant local lifestyle. For those who enjoy an active lifestyle, Nuffield Health Sports Centre is just a jog away.
