A detached family home, built in 1924 in a favoured residential area of North Oxford
The Chase is a very well proportioned house of Georgian appearance with high ceilings, large and numerous windows and generous rooms arranged over three floors. The ground floor accommodation circulates around a magnificent entrance hall with an oak staircase and doors leading to a reception room, drawing room and a wonderful kitchen family room. The kitchen is the centre piece of the accommodation with a family snug beyond and bifolding doors leading out to a sizeable garden terrace. There is also a utility room.
The first floor enjoys four well proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom is a fabulous space with a large sun terrace overlooking the rear garden, a dressing room and en suite bathroom. The second bedroom also has an en suite shower room, and there is a family bathroom. The top floor of the house has been converted into a large and versatile space with access to an attic for storage.
The house sits well within mature grounds with a driveway for several cars at the front, and a private enclosed garden at the rear bordered by mature trees. There are pathways on both sides of the house leading to the rear garden. The large terrace is bounded by a retaining wall with steps leading to the lawn and a decked area with a sunken hot tub. There is also an ornamental pond that has been covered by decking.
There is a double garage with a garden store room and an en suite annexe above.
The property is situated in the popular North Oxford area of this historic University town. The local centre of Summertown is within 1 mile providing a good selection of every day shopping including a Marks and Spencer Food. North Oxford is particularly popular for its proximity to a wealth of excellent local schools with St. Edward's within a mile, and Dragon Prep, Summerfields and Oxford High also in easy reach. The house is in the catchment area for Cherwell School.
The A34 can be joined one mile to the north at Peartree Interchange, and the fast train link from Oxford Parkway (1.5 miles) arrives at Marylebone within an hour. The Woodstock Road has a reliable bus service to and from the city centre.
