OXFORD ROAD We had walked past the house on numerous occasions and we always thought that it looked very grand. The stained-glass windows are spectacular, as are the high skirting boards and ornate coving throughout, and the stonework is incredibly impressive. The room sizes and proportions are extremely generous, and the high ceilings add to the overall sense of space and light,� say the vendors.

Seller Insight We had walked past the house on numerous occasions and we always thought that it looked very grand. The stained-glass windows are spectacular, as are the high skirting boards and ornate coving throughout, and the stonework is incredibly impressive. The room sizes and proportions are extremely generous, and the high ceilings add to the overall sense of space and light,” say the vendors. “The fully enclosed garden is a really good size and our children can safely play outside. It’s quiet and peaceful and we can hear the birds singing all day long. The garden is also a great entertaining space where we’ve hosted lots of children’s parties and BBQs. The large shed is perfect for outside storage and our children use the summer house as an extended play room where they enjoy games of table football. It’s also a peaceful spot for us to relax with a glass of wine at the end of the day.” “We tend to spend most of our time in the kitchen / dining and living area which is a fabulous space all year round. We like to open the windows and doors in the summer and our children can easily wander in and out to the garden. It’s also the ideal spot for a big Christmas tree, whilst the log burner provides a cosy warmth in the winter.”*
