4 Bed Detached House, Refurb/BRRR, Kidlington, OX5 3HQ £600,000

Back to the hallway and at the rear the kitchen is the perfect hub for modern life. Where previously the dining room and kitchen were awkwardly separated by a wall that also reduced the natural light significantly, today it's an open and hugely appealing space that amply houses the largest of dining tables in front of glazed doors opening out onto the garden at one end, with a range of pastel-painted units at the other. The feeling of space and airiness is delightful, and this combined with a light new worktop, hob, sink etc along with fresh décor really makes it a space to enjoy. And quite aside from the generous range of units here, there's also a utility room in similar style to the front, offering more storage, another sink etc - and with an external door leading to the drive, it's the ideal boot/wet dog room!

Heading upstairs, the feeling of smart, fresh and light accommodation continues, with a wide window flooding great light across landing and stairs. The landing also contains a cupboard that houses a modern hot water cylinder, with airing cupboard shelves around it. Take a left to access two of the four bedrooms. The larger of the two is very well proportioned, an ample double, with a south facing window bringing in great light, and more than enough room for a range of wardrobes etc. Its neighbour is smaller although very much a double room as shown here and currently used as the guest room, with the rear window overlooking the peaceful rear garden.

Back across the landing, there are two further bedrooms. The smaller of the pair is currently used as a study, as shown here, hence it's also an ideal child's room. The last of the bedrooms is also the main. beautifully appointed with a generous bank of wardrobes and storage behind neat doors. It's a bright double looking out over the broad grassy area to the front, with the closest opposite neighbour some distance away, and excellent proportions that make it easy to use. The en-suite has also been refinished hence it's pristine and fresh with a modern shower and new vanity unit - plus "film star" lit mirror! Serving all rooms is a family bathroom fitted in a similarly modern style, with power shower and screen above the bath and another modern vanity unit.

Outside, the house offers more useful space than most. The frontage sits on the internal "elbow" curve of the close, hence the driveway is ample for three cars off the road in front of the garage, next to a front garden that's separated from the pavement by a stone wall. Inside the garage, the walls and ceiling are heavily insulated, but in addition there's a large space overhead inside the pitched roof that could potentially offer a lot of storage or possibly further accommodation - please ask if you would like help investigating this further.

At the rear, a side gate leads into the back garden, which is pleasingly wide, running the full width of the plot and behind the garage. A good range of plants are dotted about in various beds, with separate areas ranging from a terrace behind the house encouraging summer dining, to a central lawn, and a stone seating area in the far corner to maximise the sun at any time of the year.
