Read the full agent description

A substantially upgraded family home with exceptional specification throughout. Cuddesdon Road is an impressive, comprehensively upgraded family home, with significant investment throughout to create a highly specified, modern, and energy-conscious property.

The works extend far beyond cosmetic improvements, with new electrical, plumbing and heating installations, enhanced insulation, underfloor heating, modern bathrooms, a bespoke fitted kitchen and extensive provision for future technology and landscaping.

Particular care has also been taken to future-proof the property, with dedicated infrastructure for data, security, CCTV, external lighting, power, automated gates, and additional technology already installed and routed back to the plant room.

The works extend far beyond cosmetic improvements, with new electrical, plumbing and heating installations, enhanced insulation, underfloor heating, modern bathrooms, a bespoke fitted kitchen and extensive provision for future technology and landscaping.

Electrical & Smart Home Infrastructure

The property has undergone a full rewire, with new sockets and lighting installed throughout.

Each room has provision for at least one double data point, with cabling routed back to the plant room racks. The property has also been extensively pre-wired for a comprehensive intruder alarm system, including provision for sensors to each ground-floor room, the landing, and entrances, together with cabling for the external alarm box.

A five-point CCTV system has also been wired and is ready for second-fix hardware installation.

The kitchen and dining areas benefit from detailed wiring and trim provision for LED lighting, including provision for the floating shelves against the exposed brick wall.

Further future-proofing is provided through 50mm data ducts and 100mm power ducts running from the plant room to both the front driveway and rear garden. These provide ready-made routes for future external lighting, garden power, automated entrance gates, controls, additional CCTV, and other technology.

A full electrical compliance certificate and evidence of testing will be provided.

New Plumbing & Heating

The plumbing and heating systems have also been comprehensively renewed.

The property is equipped with a Worcester Greenstar 8000 Life 35kW boiler, together with a 300-litre twin-coil unvented hot water cylinder, controlled via a Hive thermostat.

Underfloor heating has been installed to the kitchen and dining room, with electric underfloor heating also provided to all three bathrooms.

There are radiators throughout the remainder of the property, with heated towel rails to all three bathrooms. The towel rails also benefit from electric elements, allowing them to provide heat during the summer without requiring the central heating system to be switched on.

New sanitaryware has been installed throughout all three bathrooms.

Additional infrastructure has been provided to the rear garden, including a water main distribution point ready for connection and extended storm-water discharge, providing useful future provision for features such as a hot tub, pond or paddling pool.

A plumbing compliance certificate will also be provided.

Kitchen

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed and fitted to provide an excellent combination of style, storage and functionality.

The specification includes:

  • Two 60cm integrated steam-assist single ovens
  • 60cm integrated combination oven/microwave
  • 60cm integrated plate warmer
  • Integrated dishwasher
  • 95cm induction glass hob
  • Ceiling-mounted extractor above the kitchen island with remote control
  • Two undermount Belfast-style sinks
  • Solid oak worktops
  • Fairford Slate Grey cabinetry
  • Soft-close drawers and doors
  • Concealed child locks, which can be removed without damage
  • Double integrated pull-out bin
  • Pull-out tower larders either side of the fridge-freezer space
  • Three kidney-style pull-out corner units
  • Space for a large fridge-freezer
  • Space within the kitchen island for a wine cooler

The fridge-freezer and wine cooler are not included.

Utility Room

The utility room continues the same high standard of finish, with:

  • Space for washing machine and tumble dryer
  • Provision for a dryer vent if required
  • Space for a tower freezer
  • Belfast sink
  • Fairford Slate Grey cabinetry
  • Soft-close drawers and doors
  • Solid oak worktop
  • Extractor fan wiring
  • Socket within the tower unit for Hoover charging
  • Stable door providing access to the side of the house
  • Laundry chute from the principal bedroom

The tower freezer is not included.

Insulation & Energy Efficiency

Significant attention has been given to improving the property's insulation and overall thermal performance.

The existing external cavity walls have been supplemented with 40mm PIR insulation internally, while the extensions have full-fill mineral wool cavity insulation to meet current regulations.

All roofs have also been insulated with PIR insulation to meet regulations.

The property further benefits from owned solar panels, which are currently on a feed-in tariff with OVO. The system generated £820.14 between 30 March and 16 June 2026, with the relevant information available to facilitate transfer of ownership.

All high-level roof windows are electrically operated by remote control and automatically close when rain is detected.

Gardens, Outbuildings & Future Provision

The property offers extensive practical provision for outdoor living and future landscaping.

The principal shed closest to the house is divided into two areas. One section, accessed through a single door, is fully insulated and has ducts ready to provide power and water. The second section, accessed via double doors, is arranged as a workshop.

A further shed to the rear of the garden is currently used for gardening equipment associated with the allotment.

A quantity of matching paving slabs will remain with the property, together with a small quantity of roof tiles for future maintenance.

Provision has also been made for future external power, water, lighting, CCTV and automated gates through the extensive ducting infrastructure already installed from the plant room.

Additional Information

The fish tanks and associated equipment will remain at the property, with the option for the fish to be rehomed prior to completion if required.

A plan will be provided showing the location of below-ground ducts, the water stopcock, gas meter and other relevant infrastructure.

The intention was for the existing brickwork to be rendered in accordance with the plans provided.

Foul drainage is private and shared with the neighbouring property, with the particular arrangements to be agreed. Mains water is currently unmetered.

A Building Control completion certificate for the works will be provided, together w
