A charming three-bedroom terraced home located in the popular Grandpont area of central Oxford.

The property is generously proportioned with three double bedrooms and has period features throughout.

The ground floor accommodation comprises an entrance hall, a spacious reception room with box bay window, and a kitchen with bi-folding doors opening out into the garden.

On the first floor there is a large double bedroom with floor to ceiling built in storage, a second double bedroom, and a family bathroom.

On the second floor is a double bedroom with en-suite shower room and useful eaves storage.

To the rear of the property is an easy to maintain garden with magnolia tree and good-sized shed.

Grandpont is a popular area with families due to its close proximity to the city centre and array of local amenities. No 49 is at the river end of sought-after Marlborough Road, close to the River Thames, playing fields, and the delightful Nature Reserve. Westgate Shopping Centre is 8 minutes' walk away over the historic pipe bridge or a short walk up historic St Aldate's will take you to Carfax, the centre of Oxford. At the other end of Marlborough Road is Hinksey Park with its lake, playground, tennis courts and outdoor heated pool. For dog-walkers and runners there are plenty of nature trails in all directions, immediate access to the Thames Path, and Christ Church Meadows 5 minutes' walk away. The popular Slow and Steady Pub is nearby on Abingdon Road, and the riverside pub the Punter a lovely walk along the towpath in Osney. The train station is within easy cycling/ walking distance of the property, either by road or along the towpath, offering an easy commute to London, and the Oxford Tube stops under 8 minutes' walk away. Marlborough Road itself is a quiet road with a very supportive and friendly community. A thriving WhatsApp group for the street is a particularly helpful feature of life here.
