Lime Walk Headington, Oxford £700,000

We love how this beautiful family home perfectly combines character and contemporary living. The extended kitchen/dining space is undoubtedly the heart of the home, filled with natural light from skylights and opening directly onto the landscaped garden through stylish bi-fold doors. The house also offers wonderfully versatile living space, including a separate reception room with wood-burning stove, and three generous bedrooms arranged across three floors.

The property is approached via a gated front garden and attractive brick façade, creating lovely kerb appeal from the outset. The front door is to the side of the property and the welcoming entrance hall immediately sets the tone for the home, with warm wooden flooring and soft neutral décor. The hallway provides access to the reception room, staircase and rear living spaces, and downstairs WC.

To the front of the property is a beautifully presented reception room, featuring large windows, and a charming wood-burning stove, creating a cosy yet refined atmosphere ideal for relaxing evenings. There is also an additional flexible reception area which works perfectly as a family room, playroom or home office space. The layout flows effortlessly through to the kitchen extension, making the ground floor ideal for modern family life and entertaining alike.

The stunning kitchen/dining room has been thoughtfully extended and finished to a high standard, creating an impressive contemporary space at the rear of the home. Stylish dark cabinetry is paired with sleek worktops and integrated storage, while the large range cooker creates a striking focal point. The room is flooded with natural light from skylights above and full-width bi-fold doors leading out to the garden. There is ample space for both dining and everyday family living, making this an exceptionally sociable part of the home.

The property offers three well-proportioned bedrooms arranged over the first and second floors. The Master bedroom occupies the top floor and enjoys a wonderful sense of space, with fitted storage, skylights and pleasant rooftop views. This room also benefits from access to an adjoining en suite shower room. Bedroom two is a generous double room positioned on the first floor, while bedroom three is ideal as a child’s bedroom, nursery or study. Both rooms are bright, beautifully presented and served by the spacious family bathroom. The family bathroom is particularly spacious and stylishly appointed, featuring a freestanding bath, separate shower area, wash basin and WC. The neutral décor and contemporary finishes create a calm and relaxing atmosphere. In addition, the property benefits from a downstairs WC adding further practicality for family living.

The rear garden is a real feature of the property, offering a long and beautifully maintained outdoor space. Immediately outside the kitchen is a raised patio terrace, ideal for outdoor dining and summer entertaining. Beyond this, the lawn stretches towards mature trees and established planting, creating a peaceful and private setting rarely found so close to central Headington. Pathways and borders add structure to the garden while still leaving plenty of room for families and keen gardeners alike.
