3 bedrooms House in Sunderland Avenue, Oxford OX2
As the contemporary render and brick façade suggest, this three-storey semi-detached house is as sustainably and ecologically modern under the surface as it looks externally. The sleek, dark window frames, door and balcony railings offset the smart, white render and create a sense of harmonious dramatic tension. The ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hall with its warm wood flooring (thanks to the underfloor heating throughout the ground floor), downstairs WC and built-in storage. However, the main events are undoubtedly the living room to the front and the open-plan kitchen/diner at the back. The kitchen itself is a bespoke installation bursting with smart appliances (all energy efficient, of course) and custom cabinetry with soft-close hinges. The Quartz breakfast bar and worktops flow to the tiled floor thanks to their waterfall end and there is no shortage of inspiration for budding chefs with an integrated larder fridge, built-in microwave oven, oven, induction hob and undercounter wine fridge. When it comes to cleaning up there's a fully integrated dishwasher and a Quooker instant hot water and filtered water system for both hot and cold. The dining area is flooded with natural light thanks to the lantern skylight overhead and the bifold doors which open on to the south facing garden from the dining area, making it a breeze to take the inside out for alfresco dinners on the patio or bring the outside in for late-summer dining. When it comes to entertaining, the integrated ceiling speakers will ensure you're never short of a good song to keep you singing along as you cook (or eat!). The spacious living room is equally well set up for entertaining or cosy movie nights with its four ceiling speakers, while cleverly positioned corner and portal windows add even more natural light to the floor-to-ceiling main window. The first floor features two large double bedrooms (one with ensuite), and a family bathroom finished to the same high standards. Bedroom 1 is to the front of the house and is a large, open space with a box-bay window with floor-to-ceiling glazing. Bedroom 2 has built-in storage and an en suite bathroom with luxurious, walk-in shower. At the top of the house, the second floor offers two further double bedrooms, either of which could also make a great home office or hobby space and both of which command impressive views from their elevated position. There's also a further bathroom finished to the same high standards meaning no one ever has to fight for a shower! As with all areas of the house, the home-networked ethernet ports provide rock-solid internet connection, while touches like smart plugs with USB-C ports ensure flawless device compatibility and connection. The south-facing rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and is attractively fenced. There is also a patio area with extended external lighting and side access leading to the front of the property. To the front, the block-paved driveway looks just as smart as the rest of the house and offers ample parking for one car as well as a convenient EV charging point.
