Seller's comments...

This has been a wonderful family home that we have carefully adapted to suit our needs over the years. The neighbours are fantastic, and we love the privacy and friendliness of the cul-de-sac-we wouldn’t leave the location if we didn’t have to. With our children now settled in their own homes, and a work relocation ahead, it feels like the right time for a new family to enjoy everything this house and community have to offer.

Kingsmere is a premium development offering the perfect balance between countryside charm and modern convenience. The community is calm, friendly, and surrounded by green spaces, yet ideally placed for access to Bicester town centre, the M40/A40, and Buckingham. Within the development itself are local shops, a community centre, and a welcoming pub, while Bicester provides a wide range of restaurants, bars, and retail options. Excellent transport links include two mainline rail stations with services to London, a park-and-ride facility, and easy access to the national motorway network.

The area is exceptionally well served by education options, including nurseries, primary and secondary schools, sixth forms, academies, and independent schools within Bicester. Nearby amenities include polo at Kirtlington Park, Bicester Village shopping, golf at several prestigious clubs, spa and fitness facilities, tennis courts, cinemas, garden centres, and excellent access to Oxford, London, Heathrow and Birmingham.

We have taken care by adding some exceptionals - at the heart of the property is the stunning, air-conditioned orangery, a truly versatile space that seamlessly opens through bi-folding doors onto the rear veranda and landscaped garden beyond. Whether entertaining friends, enjoying family time, or relaxing with a morning coffee, this space brings the outdoors in all year round. The gardens, both front and rear, have been beautifully landscaped to create an enchanting and low-maintenance retreat-ideal for alfresco dining, summer gatherings, or quiet moments of relaxation.

Inside is laid with luxurious Amtico flooring flows throughout the house, including the stairs, enhancing both style and practicality. The open-plan kitchen is a standout feature, complete with a breakfast island, perfect for casual dining and social occasions, complemented by a utility room with pantry storage. Additional ground-floor spaces include a welcoming entrance hall, cloakroom, study, comfortable sitting room, and conservatory, providing flexibility for modern family living or working from home. Upstairs, the principal bedroom offers a peaceful sanctuary with its own dressing room and en-suite bathroom. Two further double bedrooms are well-appointed, one also benefitting from an en-suite, alongside a stylish family bathroom.

Further highlights include a fully boarded loft with web sheeting and access via a double loft ladder, a water softener throughout, a fully alarmed system, fast fibre-optic broadband, and a garage with parking for two vehicles.

A striking four-bedroom detached home occupies this sought-after setting, complemented by a spacious, air-conditioned orangery that flows seamlessly out to the rear veranda, adding real character and versatility to the living space. The landscaped garden creates a wonderful backdrop for relaxing or entertaining with family and friends.

Arranged over two floors, the house offers well-balanced and generous accommodation throughout. Set within a small, exclusive development and overlooking areas of greenery, the property enjoys a peaceful, private feel that’s ideal for modern family living.

The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged and finished to a high standard throughout. An inviting entrance hall leads to a ground floor cloakroom/WC and a separate study, ideal for home working. Amtico flooring runs throughout the ground floor and continues up the staircase, creating a seamless and contemporary feel.

At the heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen, complete with a central breakfast island and complemented by a utility room with pantry storage. The sitting room provides a comfortable space to relax, while the large, air-conditioned orangery is a standout feature, with bi-fold doors opening directly onto the veranda and rear garden, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from a dressing area (that was bedroom four, and the owner is willing to reinstate this into a bedroom if requested and at their own cost) and a private en-suite. There are two further well-proportioned double bedrooms, one of which also enjoys its own en-suite, along with a stylish family bathroom.

Outside, the property offers landscaped front and rear gardens with external power points. Additional features include a water softener serving the home, a fully boarded loft with web sheeting and double ladder access, a garage with driveway parking for two vehicles, a full alarm system and high-speed fibre broadband.
