3 Bedroom Detached House

Situated in the popular village of Shippon, just outside Abingdon, this well-sized three-bedroom semi-detached home occupies an exceptionally generous plot with substantial wrap-around gardens, ample parking and a detached garage. Offering spacious accommodation throughout and significant outside space, this property presents an ideal opportunity for families seeking village living with excellent access to nearby amenities and transport links.

Built in the 1960s and owned by the current vendors since 2020, the property has been well maintained and improved during their ownership, including replacement windows in 2022, a stylish new family bathroom, redecoration throughout and updated electrics.

The accommodation begins with an entrance hall offering useful understairs storage, alongside a convenient ground floor WC. The lounge is a particularly impressive room, featuring attractive parquet flooring and excellent proportions, with ample space for family living and entertaining. The existing fireplace could once again accommodate a log burner, subject to any necessary checks and installation requirements.

The kitchen was replaced shortly before the current owners purchased the property and offers a generous range of units and work surfaces, along with plenty of space for a dining table. Patio doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating an excellent connection between indoor and outdoor living.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal and second bedrooms are comfortable doubles, while the third bedroom is a particularly generous single room that could also accommodate a double bed if required. The family bathroom was replaced in approximately 2022 and is fitted with a modern suite comprising a bath with shower over, WC and wash hand basin.

Externally, the property truly excels. Occupying a substantial corner plot, the wrap-around gardens provide excellent outside space for families, keen gardeners or those wishing to extend further, subject to the necessary consents. The rear garden enjoys a desirable south-westerly aspect, making it ideal for enjoying afternoon and evening sunshine, with a decking area just off the kitchen/diner.

To the front there is extensive driveway parking for up to four vehicles, together with a detached garage featuring electric roller shutter doors. The garage has also been insulated and boarded, creating a highly versatile space for storage, hobbies or workshop use.

Further benefits include a gas combination boiler installed in 2020, recently checked and updated electrics, replacement windows in 2022, loft access via ladder with excellent storage space, and a peaceful village setting close to Abingdon and Oxford.

This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a spacious family home on an exceptional plot in one of the area's most desirable village locations.
