96 Oxford Street is an exceptionally attractive period townhouse with fine stone elevations, sash and bay windows and beautiful original character features throughout. Currently an artist’s home, it has been cleverly enhanced and extended to offer a range of light-filled accommodation, complete with a versatile peaceful garden and a working garden studio nestled to the rear. The entrance vestibule opens to the spacious 20 ft south-facing sitting room, with its Cotswold stone fireplace and high beamed ceiling (once a library), its subtle grandeur completed with column radiators and a partially shuttered bay window overlooking the formal front garden. This flows into the cosy snug behind with its large log-burning stove, fitted alcove cabinets and rooftop views. The stairway descends to the cool extended lower ground level, with its large lantern roof and bi-folding doors to the terrace affording abundant natural light and providing a beautiful dining space for all seasons. The open-plan kitchen offers a wall of shaker-style cabinetry with dual butler sinks. A navy AGA range, various shelving and storage and a useful utility and cloakroom alongside. The first floor houses the principal bedroom with its charming window seat and fitted wardrobes. Adjacent is the luxurious and tranquil family bathroom, with its traditional high-level w/c and freestanding roll top claw foot bathtub, contemporary walk-in shower and natural stone dual sinks, above the first is the well-proportioned second-floor sky lit bedroom.

The property sits in a prime position within the town centre, with a handsome façade including corresponding stonewalls, a wrought-iron fence and gate and mature topiary planting adding contrast. To the rear aspect, the striking extension opens to a stepped and level deck ideal for al fresco dining, beside the adaptable octagonal garden house/studio. The private setting offers a peaceful escape, adorned with various climbing plants and shrubs.
