Main Road, Broughton, OX15

Situated within this popular area, this detached Victorian house which is believed to date back to 1864, has been sympathetically updated and enlarged to provide character accommodation arranged over three floors. The property is constructed of local ironstone beneath a slate roof with double glazed stone mullion windows (to the older part of the building) and main-gas central heating. On the ground floor, both the main front door entrance and back doors are beneath attractive canopied porches. A hallway gives access to the ground floor rooms. The fitted kitchen and breakfast room has a range of sage green coloured base and eye level units with wooden work surfaces and space for domestic appliances. There is a separate utility and an additional shower room. The dining room features a brick fireplace with a timber mantle, beamed ceiling and a quarry tiled floor. A stained glass door gives access to the front entrance. The spacious sitting room features a fireplace with wooden surround and inset log burner and a wooden floor. On the first floor the principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room and an en-suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms serviced by a larger than average family bathroom with a tiled floor that features a roll top bath, separate shower cubicle high flush W.C and vanity sink. The property is not a listed building.

Outside

The property is approached from the Wykham Lane. A single width driveway provides parking for several vehicles leading to a detached double garage with up and over door and power and light connected.

Further sections are divided into a cottage garden style ensuring colour throughout the seasons, all of which are framed by established hedgerows and large trees. There is also a kitchen garden with raised vegetable planters and a greenhouse. Within the garden there is a sauna and garden store. In all, 0.33 of an acre.
