Set along a picturesque tree-lined crescent in the sought-after Oxhey Hall, this beautifully extended four-bedroom semi-detached home blends character, space, and modern living. Built in 1937, the area’s white-painted homes create a distinctive continental feel, while the peaceful surroundings provide a tranquil retreat from daily life.

The 200-foot rear garden is a true highlight—beautifully landscaped with a sandstone patio, a lush lawn, mature borders, a water feature, and a pergola, creating a peaceful setting for relaxation and entertaining. To the front, the block-paved driveway provides ample off-street parking.
Perfectly positioned, this home is within easy reach of well-regarded schools, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, and leisure facilities, including cinemas, gyms, and scenic parkland walks.
