4 Bed Detached House, Single Let, Bicester, OX26 5DJ £700,000

Past the stairs is a very generous utility room/dog lobby. A long run of units, plus further cupboards, offer all the storage you need. And opposite the stainless sink the door opens into a fantastic garage. With a professional inspection pit, concertina hardwood Idigbo doors, and strong lighting, it's the perfect secure workshop and storage all year round - any car or bike enthusiast is unlikely to find anything to touch this house.

Opposite the stairs, a very generous downstairs bathroom includes both a large shower and an ample corner bath. This serves a pair of bedrooms next door. The first is a really impressive size, fitted with bespoke cabinetry offering masses of storage including hanging rails. From here the view out to the side garden is very peaceful through a wide window. Next door, a further bedroom is a generous double by most measures. This, too, features that same pretty view.

At the end of the hall, the kitchen really is a lovely place to spend time. The range of units to one end is comprehensive, wrapping round three sides and centring on a large Belling range cooker. At the opposite end, the largest of tables will find space with ease, next to a pair of glazed French windows that open to the side passage and thereafter the garden. Opposite, a delightful, timber framed detached office/studio ensures working from home was never better than here! The vaulted ceiling, dowelled oak timbers, bifold doors that fold right back across the main frontage, all make this an absolutely wonderful extra dimension to the main house.

Turning our attention back to those floating stairs, they ascend to a landing large enough that it houses a computer space in the eaves. Two further bedrooms offer fantastic and sumptuous spaces. The main bedroom is, frankly, vast! And yet it still feels exceptionally cosy due to the lovely detailing. To one side, a full run of shelves hides behind panelled doors. On the opposite side, half mirrored cupboard doors run the whole length, behind which is more storage, including hanging rails and drawers. Further panelling links between the two, giving it character. This theme of effortless space continues in the ensuite. Pristine throughout, the vanity it topped off by a pure white sink, flanked either side by tall, wall mounted cupboards. A bath and a separate shower occupy opposite corners, with more than ample space between the two.

Back across the hall, the other bedroom is a little smaller, but only by comparison as it is very generous. Further storage sits discreetly behind bespoke cabinetry matching that found in the bedroom downstairs. The ensuite, also smaller, is all you need with a modern thermostatic shower and another vanity unit. And it is worth noting that this bedroom and en suite did not exist until less than a year ago! Such as the overall size of accommodation, this huge space was completely untouched as it was never needed…

Turning to the outside, the aforementioned detached timber building offers both an open fronted carport of generous depth, and a wide, enclosed garage to the side. Hedging to the left and right focuses your attention towards the house. On the left, timber planters are ready for the next season! Further gates to the left of the house enclose a space that contains all manner of useful storage space, also currently hiding bins next to the utility room door. The entrance of the garage is via a set of side hinged doors; these can be folded back to as great or little degree as required, a clever touch. The gravel path gently curves round to the right of the house heading to the main door, flanked by lawn and bordered with smart fencing and pillars.

The previously mentioned summer house sits next to the kitchen, and between it and the house is a path that leads to the rear garden. A shed nestles in the rear right corner, just past a pretty bed containing a wide diversity of shrubs, trees and flowers. Further borders sit between the back of the house and the broad lawn. A seating area in the far left corner is a peaceful place for evening drinks. As you can see from our images, high hedging runs round most of the property, to afford a great degree of privacy. In doing so it has not detracted from the wonderful degree of light that the property enjoys, with the main garden East and South facing, and the lawn between front and rear also looking South.
