Charlbury Road is situated in the heart of the much-favoured residential area of central north Oxford and the North Oxford Victorian Conservation area. It is a prestigious side road with little through-traffic.

The University Parks and the River Cherwell are within a few minutes walk away and the city centre is approximately one mile. Within a 15-minute walk is the local centre of Summertown with a good range of shops including Marks and Spencers and the Esporta Health and Racquets Club. Linton Road is very well positioned for Oxford's excellent range of schools with the Dragon, Oxford High School and its preparatory school Greycoats, all within easy walking distance. Other highly regarded schools, including St Edwards, Magdalen, Headington Girls School, Lynams, The Squirrel and New College, are also within easy reach. Regular bus routes on the Banbury Road connect with the city centre and the train station (London Paddington approximately 60 minutes). The A34 and M40 are readily accessible.

The property is a substantial (3,637 sq ft) detached Edwardian house built in 1906 and designed by J R Symm. The house is typical of its era with elegant and spacious rooms with high ceilings, cornicing and large bay windows.

From the front door an attractive entrance porch opens to the large hallway with cloakroom and reception rooms off. The drawing room has a large bay window with a pair of glazed doors opening on to the west facing terrace and garden. Running across the front of the house is a large double reception room with spacious sitting room and adjoining study, again with each room enjoying a large bay window. The kitchen/breakfast room, whilst in need of some updating, has the potential for further reconfiguration to provide an excellent family-living and entertaining space. At first floor level there is large master bedroom and 3 further double bedrooms. The large central landing and staircase continues to the second floor where there are 2 more double bedrooms, bathroom and small kitchen.

To the front, the property is set back from the road in a wide plot with a gravelled parking and turning area and wide access to the south side providing access to the rear garden and scope (subject to planning and conservation area consent) for further extension of the property.

The rear garden, largely enclosed by the original brick wall, faces west and includes areas of lawn interspersed by mature shrubs and flowering borders.
