Swinburne Road, Abingdon, OX14

Brimming with period charm and now in the final stages of renovation, this beautifully proportioned home is being offered to market as a completed project, while also presenting an exciting opportunity for the new owner to add their own finishing touches and personal style.

Arranged over three floors, the property combines original character features with a host of thoughtful modern improvements.

On the ground floor, the welcoming front reception room features a brand-new stone fireplace surround with a gas fire, creating a striking focal point. The separate dining room retains its own character fireplace, complete with gas supply, and flows through to the brand-new Wren fitted kitchen. A door leads directly out to the rear garden, while stairs rise to the first floor.

The first floor offers two generous double bedrooms, both benefiting from their original feature fireplaces, alongside a spacious family bathroom finished with feature tiling and plenty of character.

The top floor is home to a further double bedroom, flooded with natural light from its dual-aspect windows, creating a bright and inviting space that could work equally well as a principal bedroom, guest room or home office.

Outside, the generous south-west facing rear garden is a real highlight. Extending to the far end of the plot, it provides excellent outdoor space and leads to a double garage and off-street parking — a particularly valuable feature in such a desirable location.

There are also some important, less visible improvements that set this property apart. Unlike many homes along this highly sought-after road, the original lead water pipes within the property have been replaced within the last two years, together with the main external water feed.

For those who enjoy putting their own stamp on a home, there is also flexibility. While the property is being marketed as a completed renovation project, buyers who would prefer to undertake the final touches themselves — allowing them to select their own finishes, colours and style — are invited to discuss this option and the asking price further.

A characterful home, thoughtfully renovated, with generous accommodation, a south-west facing garden, double garage and off-street parking — with the added opportunity to make the final details entirely your own.
